Magical Artifaction
Take a regular hammer, etch some runes, and suddenly it melts metal with one tap. This is the wild stuff artificers do—turning ordinary things into something powerful.
Excalibur, Merlin’s Staff, or Mjölnir (Thor’s Hammer); these are well known examples of powerful magical artifacts, empowered by Runewords. The guys and I still have decades of crafting to practice before we could ever craft anything so powerful—but you can’t blame a guy for planning ahead!
