- [[Category:]] Explosive runes was an arcane abjuration or alteration spell that booby-trapped written or drawn information to prevent unauthorized viewing.
- This card is similar to the same-named spell from Dungeons & Dragons. That spell generates an explosion when a player reads the message written in the runes.
- Explosive runes is a spell which the Wizard Vaarsuvius frequently uses to get revenge on people who annoy them, or get too close (Belkar kissed V in 316). It is therefore most frequently used on Belkar Bitterleaf. Vaarsuvius usually uses the spell by writing "I prepared Explosive Runes this morning," or simply "Explosive Runes" in a place where the intended victim is likely to read it. Sometimes they will give the spell to the victim, but they often use a more subtle approach.
- You scribe magical runes on an object such as a book, a scroll, a map, or a similar item that weighs no more than 10 pounds. These runes look like normal writing but function as a trap. As you inscribe them, you can create a password that allows a creature to read the runes without triggering the trap. If the trap is triggered or disabled, the ritual is discharged. See also Glyph of Warding.
