SC - Runesmith

Overview

SC - Runesmith is a layered rune composer for Foundry VTT.

It lets you build rune artwork from image and glyph layers, save the generated output to your world data, and optionally turn that work into final game items when a compatible adapter is available.

Installation

This is a premium module.

Install access is handled through the Shattered Codex Download Hub.

See How to Download Premium Modules from the Download Hub for the full access and installation flow.

What It Adds

  • a layer-based rune editor for image and glyph composition
  • built-in font presets for rune and script styles
  • support for custom font uploads
  • masking, blend modes, transforms, glow, engrave, and background controls
  • adapter-based workflows for editor-only use or item generation
  • optional integration with SC - Simple Sockets for gem-related item data

Basic Use

  1. Open Configure Settings > Module Settings > Runesmith.
  2. Use Open Editor to launch the rune editor.
  3. Build your rune with layers, fonts, masks, and styling controls.
  4. Save the output to your configured folder.
  5. If a supported adapter is active, generate the final item from the composed rune.

Configuration

The main global settings are:

These settings use Foundry folder pickers to define where generated images, rune assets, and uploaded fonts are stored.
