Some artists aren't content to be confined to digital or traditional drawings of their characters but look to foray into different media. We think they should be able to earn rune marks as well!
Currently crafted items cannot be used for activities or submitted more than once (for example, a painted figure submitted a second time with a different background). If there is sufficient interest, please let us know and we can look into making this a possibility.
We've developed the following categories for crafted pieces for rune mark purposes. We recognize that "Crafted Items" covers a huge variety of possibilities with a range of time investment associated with them. We've done our best to make categories that seem fair, and reserve the right to adjust the categories and rune mark range over time as we see what sort of awesome creations our members submit.
3-D Figure Categories
Fully Created Figure (ex: hand made clay sculpture or hand sewn plushie)
Customized Figure (ex: altered and painted base such as a model deer with re-sculpted antlers)
Painted Figure (ex: painted base such as a model deer with no alteration other than color)
Background Categories
Fully Crafted Background (ex: diorama with hand-crafted trees or hand painted backdrop)
Arranged Background (ex: diorama with premade plastic trees and premade printed backdrop)
Photo Background (ex: figure photographed outside in front of real trees)
No Background
The following bonuses apply to crafted items. No other traits or companions apply.
Created by Owner
This bonus is given to any piece that the owner participated in making (in part or the whole thing)
Luck Rune Talisman (Tack Item)
The Rukaan who bears this talisman will find their rune mark rolls to be just a little bit luckier in pieces done by the Rukaan's owner or collaborated with the owner.
Muskox (Companion)
Substantial rune mark bonus for the Rukaan in any piece which is not an activity. Activities include explorations, quests, show/feats, and battles.
