As this is of interest to sorcerers, I'll cross-post it here as well:

These are on the calendar for this coming Saturday, the 19th. Platinum's will draw at approximately 4 PM Eastern, Premium will draw at approximately 5 PM Eastern. Entry will be restricted to sorcerers of level 25+.

Winner will have their choice of any single demon-specific rune. Winners will be empowered to teach a lorae'tyr rune once, a shien'tyr rune twice, or a grik'tyr rune three times. It is highly suggested that winners be around at the time of the drawing, as Ledirth is likely to be very displeased if he has to wait long or go tracking people down later.

Also, does anyone have any interest in trying to use this opportunity for Guildmaster promotion? just a thought. I can be one of the nominators

My sorcerer, Dalzashel, is hoping for a promotion! He will also be aiming to get there an hour or so before the raffle to offer illusions training to people and will hang around after too.

Does Ledirth have demonology training? from an IC standpoint I mean.

I'd just love to see him summon a greater demon to go "track someone down"....heh

tonight's winners were:
Stralan - Abyran'sa
Nindon - Grik
Rumpkin - Imp
Delarock - Verlok

I added an incomplete table on krakiipedia showing the people who know what runes; the data comes from the lists on the individual demon webpages on krakiipedia. I know it's incomplete because I have an arashan runestone in my pouch that someone gave me and there are no people listed as knowing it on the arashan page.

http://www.krakiipedia.org/wiki/725#Uncommon_Runes_Used_with_this_Spell

Added that table because I thought the list needed to be on one page rather than 9 demon pages. Anyway, if you have info on who knows what, post here and I'll add it if you don't have a krakiipedia account.

I'd also like to propose the next raffle be limited to people who don't already know a rune. people with runes tend to "trade" with other people who also have teachings, and this would help spread the runes out a little bit. people can still trade teachings obviously but it would keep the runes from being too concentrated in a core group of people, even though it still would be because of "trading". noted that at least two of the four winners tonight already knew some runes.

it just seems fairer, IMO

and someone was nice enough to teach me a rune today. I appreciate that. still holding out for that verlok rune for RP reasons but it's still very nice.

and yes I still think it's fairer for people without runes to be the first to get new ones. especially if it's their main character and would be using it a lot.

Is there any GM receptiveness to players picking an uncommon rune if they have over 100 or whatever demonology ranks? idea was first proposed by GM Nilven I believe.

I am curious about whether or not we could get more regular raffles for sorcerers? Not necessarily uncommon runes, but I'd prefer that, but perhaps customizing nightmares.. assuming there aren't going to be too many more mass customizations in the near future. I would compare it to the regular/semi-regular AC and sonic alteration raffles. Arguments have been made that the number of uncommon runes released needs to be limited, to which I would have to disagree. They make things somewhat easier, when you are trying to get a specific demon, but otherwise the mechanical benefit seems relatively limited.

Moredin-

I was taught in the initial arashan event and taught Drigore (so that's two). I'm pretty sure others were taught in a different runestone teaching event that had nothing to do with RP.

I have two more teaches if Stralan would like to trade.

Tamuz-

While I appreciate more runes being distributed, I feel that simple auctions for the knowledge goes against the RP nature of the game. Since the Arashan event there have been no real RP events for distribution of uncommon runes. Can they at least be held in the Heart of the Art? or something more creative than a raffle be done to make it fun for all summoning sorcerers, regardless of if a rune is won or not? A summoning rune being raffled off in a place where summoning is illegal(as I believe it is on FWI) just strikes me as odd and a little inappropriate. If it's not illegal, then never mind that part.

I'd also like to re-suggest for the upteenth time to grant an uncommon rune with no teachings to guild masters who master illusions.

Drigore and I also know darkling.

On the krakii page it mentions not being arrestable when the constable is otherwise occupied (i.e. during an invasion), but this is not true anymore, at least in the Landing.

Well i noticed that minor demons will get the messaging of being run off by the law during invasions, but will not result in a fine.

malisai is right about the invasion situation. stupid, IMO, that the demon gets chased off "by an agent of the law" when the constable is too busy to notice people breaking the law?

dumb, dumb, dumb.

exactly. it is an RP choice. people who dedicate training to demonology should be allowed to pick one uncommon rune for the purpose of RP.

For the record, Drigore knows Grantris, Arashan, Aishan, and Darkling, if anyone needs something drawn. Also from the other folder, I believe Grantris also speak guild along with elf. Not entirely sure about the other languages.

Your purple-eyed grantris attempts to mimic your message using clicking noises and the rubbing of its feet but is unable to because of its gutteral nature.
