Caryll Runes (5e Equipment)

Design Note: This item uses the Unique Item Rarity homebrew ruleset.

Wondrous item, varies (major) (requires attunement)

Caryll runes are engravings that represent the utterances of great ones; words whose meaning are fundamentally beyond mortal comprehension. The great scholar Caryll, for whom these runes are named, dedicated her life to recording these cosmic vocalizations in runic form. If one focuses one's mind on etching a Caryll rune thoroughly into one's memory, one can come away with unusual powers.

Caryll Rune. There are a great many variety of Caryll runes, most of which come in multiple versions of intensity. When you attune to a Caryll rune, you gain its respective benefit for as long as you remain attuned, even if you discard the rune's physical form: what matters is only the connection to the idea that you form within your mind.
Runes of a rarity whose listed effect is "—" do not exist, and thus cannot be obtained.

Rune of Oath. Caryll runes categorized as "Runes of Oath" are special in that they require no attunement slot to be attuned to. However, you can only ever have one Caryll Rune of Oath attuned to you at any time.
