Runic Magic

Runic Magic is the ability to use Magical Ink or other writing devices with the right components to write out spells to activate. This old style of magic even came before Enchanting Crafting. You write out and enchant a spell into a symbol that represents the spell. to set a spell to go off later.

Utility

The most typical application for them is in traps. That will go off as soon as the individual notices it. When a person sees the magical sign, it resonates with the person's aura and reflects back on itself from the eye and mind of the viewer, activating it. The more familiar the sign, the faster it activates. The more probable the individual is to recognize the sign, the faster the magic activity because they can easily visualize it.
Access & Availability
Anyone can learn it and getting hold of Magical Ink is very easy just a little pricey. There are other ways of doing this but you need to find a teacher witch can be hard to track down.
Complexity
There are three things you should be able to do. First, you must be able to cast the spell; no other object can be used for this. You will also need to be able to work your magic on the ink. It's not a tough task, but it does take careful execution. Finally, research the symbology that will work with the spell you're trying to cast. Various symbols can operate, although their effectiveness varies by region.
