This is the second iteration of  (I have now made a ) I have now added in some of the suggestions given by linksassin such as simplifying it to just one type of rune and adding a material cost. I have not added in limited duration or limited number because it is intended to allow the player to make a consumable similar to spell-scrolls or potions. if they intend to make them during extended downtime then thats fine, its the same as making spell scrolls or buying potions during downtime.  Rune Caster Prerequisites: ability to cast at least one spell of 1st level or higher When you take this feat you can imbue your spells into a rune by casting the spell as a rune, this means that you must have the object you want to put the rune on within reach for the whole duration of the casting as well as any tools required to make the rune. The casting time is also affected. Casting When casting a rune you add 1 hour to the casting time and 20gp per spell level stored on top of the normal components of the spell. Triggers When making a rune you may customise the trigger conditions from the following list:  Touch  Command word spoken  … by [specify creature(s)]  … with [specify body part]   When defining creatures that can activate the rune you may be as specific or general as you want. The DM interpretes the designated creatures as your character would have interpreted them when you made the rune. Ranges When you store a spell in a rune the following rules change the range:  A range of touch becomes a range of self  When a range is listed and a target the person who activates the rune designates the target  When a range is used with an aoe the origin is automatically wherever the rune is.   Activating a rune When a rune is activated the spell is released acting as if it had just been cast without requiring any components. The rune then disappears leaving no trace of its presence. To activate a rune you must complete the trigger, this means speaking any command words and physically touching the rune each if applicable.  I want to know specifically is it to powerful/ not powerful enough and if so what would be a reasonable way of correcting the issue.
Quite simply (and similarly to my other questions about previous versions of this feat  and ) I want to know if this feat is balanced and if not then what should be done to improve it? Since the last iteration I have changed the wording as per David Coffron's answer, increased the time and monetary cost as well as added in the action requirement to activate the rune as per Ruse's answer and increased the costs as per linksassin's answer     Rune Caster      Prerequisites: ability to cast at least one spell of 1st level or higher      When you take this feat you can imbue your spells of 1st level or higher into a rune by casting the spell as a rune, this means that you must have the object you want to put the rune on within reach for the entire duration of the casting as well as any tools required to make the rune.      When casting a rune you add the time listed in the cost time table to the casting time and the cost listed in the cost time table to the components of the spell in accordance with the stored spell.      \begin{array}{|l|l|l|} \hline \text{Spell level} &amp; \text{Time (hrs)} &amp; \text{Cost (GP)}\\ \hline 1 &amp; 1 &amp; 50 \\ \hline 2 &amp; 2 &amp; 100\\ \hline 3 &amp; 4 &amp; 500\\ \hline 4 &amp; 6 &amp; 1,000\\ \hline 5 &amp; 8 &amp; 5,000\\ \hline 6 &amp; 12 &amp; 10,000\\ \hline 7 &amp; 16 &amp; 50,000\\ \hline 8 &amp; 18 &amp; 100,000\\ \hline 9 &amp; 24 &amp; 500,000\\ \hline \end{array}      When making a rune you choose a trigger which is touch and/or command word and can be specified to only a group of people/creatures or a body part. When defining creatures that can activate the rune you may be as specific or general as you want. The DM interprets the designated creatures as your character would have interpreted them when you made the rune.      When you store a spell in a rune some of the ranges are altered, a range of touch becomes a range of self, a range and target keeps the same range and the person who activates the rune designates the target and range with an aoe sets the origin to the center of the rune, lastly a range of self stays the same.      When a rune is activated the spell is released acting as if it had just been cast without requiring any components or concentration. The rune then disappears leaving no trace of its presence. To activate a rune you must complete the trigger, this means speaking any command words and physically touching the rune each if applicable, this requires the activator to use the object interaction action while within reach for touch runes and while within 60 ft for command words. If both triggers are used then they must both be fulfilled within the same turn.
How to get from Heathrow Airport to King's Cross, London? My wife and I will be arriving in London via Heathrow Airport (LHR) and are staying at a hotel near King's Cross station. So, we were wondering what the best (which means fastest but also easiest when carrying two large pieces of luggage and two carry-ons) way to get from LHR to King's Cross?  I gather that, with only one changeover, we can take the Tube. However, in the interest of other passengers, we thought it would be best to take a taxi, or maybe a bus?  Thoughts?

In Ubuntu 14.04, when I do a search in Firefox using either the address bar or the search bar, the system always adds t=canonical to my searches. So the full string becomes: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=cat+cooking+salmon&amp;t=canonical.  However, if I perform the same search by going directly to the search engine, i.e. typing the search engine name and doing the search from the presented search box, this does not happen. In this case the string is: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=cat+cooking+salmon.    How do I stop Ubuntu/Firefox from adding t=canonical to my search queries?

What's the difference between Kage Bunshin no Jutsu and Tajuu Kage Bunshin no Jutsu? While the Kage Bunshin no Jutsu seems to be taught, the Tajuu Kage Bunshin no Jutsu is sealed, so nobody can learn the jutsu. Does that mean that there's a difference between these jutsus, aside from the number of Kage Bunshin created?   Or, why was the Tajuu Kage Bunshin no Jutsu sealed away? If there's no other difference, everybody could use this without reading the sealed scroll.

I believe the purpose of a tuning fork is to produce a single pure frequency of vibration.  How do two coupled vibrating prongs isolate a single frequency?  Is it possible to produce the same effect using only 1 prong?  Can a single prong not generate a pure frequency?  Does the addition of more prongs produce a "more pure" frequency?  The two prong system only supports a single standing wave mode, why is that? How can I get Google Sheets to treat my form-submitted strings as plain text and preserve leading zeros? I have Google Forms where users enter information, some of which contains leading zeros (e.g. zip codes, ID numbers).   However, when this data is saved to the Google Sheet, it doesn't treat it as plain text and strips the zero. The form fields are text fields with no validation.   I have tried to format the range of cells containing these values as plain text, but it seems Sheets does not set the formatting as plain text unless there is already text in a cell. So I can format a column as plain text, submit the form, and the leading zero will still be stripped.   I tried writing an apps script to deal with this but there's no good way for me to deploy it to the users who would need it.   How can I get around this without having to instruct users to prepend a single quote to their form entry? This is such a small thing, but I can't find a good simple solution to what it seems must be a common problem. If I can't get this to work I may have to drop Google Forms/Sheets altogether. Trigonometric fraction Inequality question Let $G$ be a group and $c$ be a fixed element of $G$. Define a new operation $*$ on G by:   $$x*y=xdy$$   for all $x$ and $y$ in $G$, where $d$ is the inverse of $c$. Prove that $G$ is a group under the operation $*$.    If you want to check, this problem is in the book “A Course In Group Theory”, by John F. Humphreys (problem $3$, page $28$)   I know what are the axioms that $(G,*)$ must obey in order to be a group and I did show that all the axioms where obeyed except the inverse axiom.  My problem is that, whenever I try to verify what would the inverse be for some element $x$, I get an equation where the $x$ is cancelled in both sides.  Can please someone guide me?  Thank you!  (P.S.: This is NOT a homework assignment, I’m studying Group Theory by this book and got problems solving this question) Using Unicode Zero Width Spaces allows all space comments I have a point $(X,Y)$ on an elliptical curve $E(a,b)$ where $a=-3$ and $B$ is a large number that is in hexadecimal from -51BD. To compress this point oficially in a program, we know that every $X$ on the curve has two $Y$'s, one even and one odd. Therefore, we only need to store whether the corresponding $Y$ point we are storing is even or odd. So to store the point $(X,Y)$ now, we shift $X$ ridding of its most significant bit and add $1$ if the $Y$ point is odd. Therefore, one can think of the compressed point being $2 \cdot X+B$ ($B$ is the bit we added to tell if $Y$ was odd or even) since the multiplication by $2$ is implied because of the shift. I understand this completely. It's recovering the original point that has me confused.  Since a point on the curve is given by the equation $y^2=x^3+ax+b$, we can find square roots officially in $\mathrm{GF}(p)$. The following from my spec is what confuses me.  If $p$ is prime and congruent to $3$ mod $4$, one of its square roots is $z^{(p+1)/4} \bmod p$ and the other is $p-z^{(p+1)/4} \bmod p$. How would I solve this? What is $z$?  For example, I know how to extract the $x$ point so let's say I simplify the right side of the equation to be $7$ and $p$ is $11$. Would I be trying to solve for the square root that's equal to $7$ mod $11$? Assuming one wants to travel through China, what are the rules for visa-free access? To be more specific:   How does the 24-hour visa free transit work? How does the 72-hour version work? What does a person ineligible for either of these programs have to do to transit China? Do the programs apply to flights only or do they also work for transit on land? Would a visitor save much hassle by using visa free transit instead of just getting a visa?      NB: this is intended as a canonical question on transiting China Integrate $e^{ax}\sin(bx)?$ Is there a general formula for finding the primitive of $$e^{ax}\sin(bx)?$$  I've done this manually with $a=9$ and $b=4$ using Euler's formulas.
