RunelordDedication Feat 2
Rare Source Rival Academies pg. 114
Prerequisites runelord
You’ve learned arcane magic, following the path of the runelords. You learn the secrets of runic magic, the building blocks of magic. But be warned: You might succumb to sin in your pursuit of power. The seven runes held in highest regard by the runelords echo the addictive power of the seven sins.
Beyond the runes themselves, you also learn the techniques of the ancient runelords. You learn to use their signature weapons and can acquire the secrets of the ancient magic items called aeon stones, embedding them into your skin.
War MageDedication Feat 2
Uncommon Source Battlecry! pg. 68
Prerequisites You have a spellcasting class feature.
You learned the arcane craft at a war college, focusing less on theory and scholarship and more on applied magic and how best to leverage spellcraft on the battlefield. You were schooled in arcana, tried and tested in war, and learned how and when best to employ those spells to turn the tide of battle. Your training included lessons on swordplay and the upkeep of armor alongside the preparation of spells and the deciphering of arcane runes.
There are many war colleges that provide this specialized training. Perhaps you were schooled in one of Molthune’s military academies, or as part of your military training in Taldor or Qadira. Regardless of the source, your unique skills make your combat magic some of the most potent on Golarion.
