In addition to the basic behaviors of a Gezuuni's enchanted runic tattoos, more powerful and specific effects can be created by those knowledgeable in the lore of the runes and enhanced with the necessary tattoos to form key rune structures on their bodies. These structures enable one to call upon discrete powers not available to lesser bearers of the runes, and are known as Runic Commands -- the ability to enforce one's will upon one's enchanted runes.
Formula for unlocking knowledge of runic commands: Rune lore + 1/2 Symbology + 1/2 Kesliri
Luxzhi is at 200. Others are at 300. More are at 500. Some have individual requirements. There is supposed to be a particularly OP one that is only barely possible to get without being a Gezuuni.
If you have Varn remove a runic commands, there will be a cooldown period before he will remove more from you. This can be measured in days, but Varn will state the exact time remaining down to the second.

Utility
Eadon (nightvision)
Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified biophrasty skill with related skills contributing or have at least 75 points in unmodified animal lore skill Energy Costs : seventy-five points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to grant increased hunting aptitude A more nebulous and spiritual set of runes than most, this runic command bestows upon its invoker a semblance of a hunting cat's aspect, allowing the bearer to see in the darkness for a time. The effect also grants increased skill at stalking one's prey.
Isilreun (hyperspatiality)
Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified psychophrasty skill with related skills contributing or have at least 75 points in unmodified mathematics skill Energy Costs : seventy-five points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to alter my mental processes A particularly esoteric set of runes, this runic command allows one to flood one's mind with a number of complex mathematical and geometric postulates, temporarily altering one's perceptions in a manner sufficient to allow one to perceive higher dimensions. However, this power comes at a cost, altering one's mental functioning such that one's intelligence ceases to be able to feel or comprehend emotional concepts until the artificial thought patterns fade.
Luxzhi (light)
Energy Costs : twenty-five points of spiritual energy
Process to Command : will the runes on my body to illuminate the area
One of the most basic functions of a Gezuuni's enchanted rune tatoos is the ability to shed
light, illuminating one's surroundings. To dismiss this light, simply concentrate on dimming the
light from your runes.
- Note: this is the only runic command that can be accessed by Weapons of Vengeance without getting a special tattoo from Varn
Ogoedle (internal respiration)
Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified aeroturgy skill with related skills contributing or have at least 75 points in unmodified metaphysics skill Energy Costs : twenty-five points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to summon a shell of breathable air One of the more advanced runic sequences known to the Gezuuni, this runic command summons a shell of breatheable air around the bearer, enabling them to breathe in any environment. However, this barrier is fragile and especially susceptible to kinetic force, and a sufficiently strong impact can strip it away. To dismiss the shell voluntarily, simply concentrate on dismissing the swirling air around you.
Raisa (flight)
Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified geoturgy skill with related skills contributing or have at least 35 points in unmodified kineturgy skill with related skills contributing; or have at least 75 points in unmodified physics skill with related skills contributing Energy Costs : one hundred fifty points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to define a personal gravitic field A somewhat common runic command, this sequence of runes allows one to define and generate a personal gravitic field, allowing aerial movement and mobility.
Sinnimur (manavorism and astral perception)
Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified enchantment skill with related skills contributing or have at least 75 points in unmodified arcane lore skill Energy Costs : fifty points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to attune me to the flows of mana A commonly-sought runic command, this sequence of runes allows one to attune one's body to the flows of mana, granting oneself the ability to see astral phenomenae and subsist upon mana flows without any other form of sustenance, negating the need for food and water. However, while this rune sequence is active, it is impossible for the bearer to ingest substances that are not magickal to at least some degree.
Elemental Defense
Loemonlue (earth)
Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified geoturgy skill with related skills contributing or have at least 175 points in unmodified cosmology skill Energy Costs : one hundred points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to become charged with earth energy This ability charges your runes with gravity energy, forming a protective shield of gravitational waves that strike out to crush any who attack you. It also allows you to command the element of earth in combat.
Maiduro (lightning)
Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified elektraturgy skill with related skills contributing or have at least 175 points in unmodified cosmology skill Energy Costs : one hundred points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to become charged with electrical energy This ability charges your runes with electrical energy, forming a protective shield of lightning that strikes out at any who attack you. It also allows you to command the amalgam of lightning in combat.
Maimurakoa (cold)
Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified cryoturgy skill with related skills contributing or have at least 175 points in unmodified cosmology skill Energy Costs : one hundred points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to become charged with cold energy This ability charges your runes with cold energy, forming a protective shield of gloom that sucks the heat from any who attack you.

It also allows you to command the element of fire in combat.
Munoememl (metal)
Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified khalkiturgy skill with related skills contributing or have at least 245 points among unmodified cosmology skill and unmodified smithing skill Prerequisite Commands : Loemonlue and Maleles Energy Costs : two hundred points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to become charged with metal energy This ability charges your runes with metal energy, granting the strength of steel to your body for a brief period as well as striking back at attackers with blades of metal. It also allows you to command the amalgam of metal in combat.
Sem (shadow)
Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified skiaturgy skill with related skills contributing or have at least 195 points in unmodified cosmology skill Prerequisite Commands : Loemonlue, Maiduro, Maimurakoa, and Maleles Energy Costs : two hundred fifty points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to become charged with umbral energy This ability charges your runes with umbral energy, forming a protective shield of shadows that erases the existence of any who attack you. It also allows you to command the amalgam of shadow in combat.
Buffs
Araisnin (mental focus)
Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified psychophrasty skill with related skills contributing or have at least 145 points in unmodified piety skill Prerequisite Commands : Eintai, Gearaiqan, and Isilreun Energy Costs : one hundred twenty-five points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to align my thoughts with my purposes Regarded as the pinnacle of runic achievement to the Gezuuni, this runic command focuses the bearer's thoughts into a state of perfect devotion to the ideals of Gezuuni society. While in this trance, the bearer experiences no fear, becomes highly resistant to distraction by pain or pleasure, and has full command of their mental processes, allowing them to concentrate on multiple tasks simultaneously and even react to events as they occur. The bearer also experiences sizable increases in their general mental acuity, as well as most skills related to concentration and mental coordination in combat. However, being stunned by any influence will cause one's focusing trance to break. To dismiss the trance voluntarily, simply concentrate on releasing your conviction regarding mental perfection.
- Note: Anyone have information on this Gearaiqan command?

Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified aretophrasty skill with related skills contributing or have at least 115 points in unmodified enchantment skill Energy Costs : one hundred points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to enhance my physical agility This ability invokes your runes to weave pathways of magick into your muscles and nervous system, increasing your physical agility and increasing your ability at some related skills.
- This command will overwrite Caibo or Ienu if they are currently in effect.

Knowledge Requirement : have at least 35 points in unmodified psychophrasty skill with related skills contributing or have at least 75 points in unmodified psychology skill Energy Costs : seventy-five points of spiritual energy Process to Command : will the runes on my body to fill me with rage A particularly fiendish set of runes, this runic command allows one to fill themselves with boundless rage, allowing their attacks to heighten their own fury until reaching a state of berserk blood frenzy. Care must be taken, however, as the Gezuuni who bears this runic command has no way to calm themselves once the danger is past.

Combat Maneuvers
Perform Kesli Qereun Gezuuni Runes Combat Maneuver Usage: perform kesli qereun [at <target> using <energy>] Typical Activity Cost: 25 Activity Cost For You: 24 The prestigious art of Kesli Qereun allows the user to trace a phantasmal rune which functions as a link between the bearer's runes and esoteric planes of energy, allowing the tracer of the rune to bring forth the energies evoked. Most commonly, these energies are directed at an opponent as a combat maneuver. The energies that can be used with this ability depend on the other runic commands that are available to the user. Available energies:
