- Not to be confused with Runestones (Online).
Rune Stones are similar in appearance to the Doomstones, but do not grant Greater Powers. Instead, they enchant whoever uses them with Bound Weapon and/or Bound Armor enchantments.
Rune Stones can be activated any time of day but need one day to recharge after they have been used. They increase boost Conjuration.
The are three types of Runestones: Hestra, Reman and Sidri-Ashak; all bestow different types of bound weapon or armor when they are activated.
The ten Hestra stones bestow bound Daedric Gauntlets and either a bound Daedric Dagger or a bound Daedric Mace (depending on the Hero's skill in Blunt and Blade). The nine Reman stones give a bound Daedric Cuirass, and a bound Daedric Claymore longsword or bound Daedric War Axe (again, corresponding to the higher skill). The five Sidri-Ashak stones bestow a bound Daedric Helmet and a bound Daedric Bow.
Lectures are held each afternoon between four and six at the Arcane University, exclusively on the subject of magical stones. As these lectures reveal, Hestra and Reman were rulers of Cyrodiil in earlier times, and Sidri-Ashak was an Akaviri Potentate, a leader of the Akaviri people.
