Runecrafting is a skill that allows players to craft their own runes for Magic spells. In the Runecrafting skill, magical runes are crafted by binding the magical energy from runic altars into magical stones. These stones are called essence.

Essences

Pure Essences

Pure essence can be used to craft air, mind, water, earth, fire, body runes , cosmic, chaos, astral, nature, law, death, blood & soul. Obtaining Pure essence can be acquired by Mining, from monster drops and Loot chest. Zulrah is a good source of Pure Essence.

Abyss

The Abyss is a special region. The Abyss provides access to all the runic altars without the need for a talisman, with the exception of astral runes.

Essence pouches

Essence pouches are bags that can hold varying amounts of pure essence when training the skill. Essence pouches are highly prized among runecrafters because they can be used to take larger loads when runecrafting and mining pure essence.

Summoning Familiars

These special Beasts of Burden are the only ones capable of carrying unnoted rune or pure essence, but cannot hold any other kind of item. There are three: the Abyssal parasite, Abyssal lurker and Abyssal titan, able to hold 7, 12 and 20 essence respectively. They aid runecrafting by increasing the inventory size of the player.
