The Rune pouch stores runes outside your inventory. It holds three types of rune, up to 16,000 of each, and your spells use the runes inside it as long as the pouch is in your inventory, so three stacks of runes take up a single inventory slot. Its Pre-Set option fills it with the runes for Ice Barrage, Vengeance, Teleblock or Bind in one click. You always keep the pouch when you die, but if a player kills you in the Wilderness, the wrath and sunfire runes inside it go to them. It cannot be traded, and it costs 1,000 PK points in the PK Point Shop.
The Divine rune pouch works the same way and holds four types of rune.
Using the pouch
- Adding runes: use runes on the pouch, or choose Open and click runes in your inventory to add 1, 25, all or a chosen amount. Only runes fit in the pouch; combination runes such as mist or lava runes count as one type.
- Limits: three types of rune, up to 16,000 of each. When all three slots are taken, the pouch only accepts more of a rune it already holds.
- Casting: when you cast a spell, runes in your inventory are used first, then the runes in the pouch.
- Taking runes out: Open the pouch and click a rune to take out 1, 25, all or a chosen amount, or use Empty to move every rune into your inventory.
- The pouch cannot be opened during minigames.
The rune pouch window
- Click a rune in your inventory to store it. Left-click stores 1, and the right-click menu has Store-1, Store-25, Store-All and Store-X.
- Click a rune in the pouch to take it out: Withdraw-1, Withdraw-25, Withdraw-All or Withdraw-X.
The Divine rune pouch has its own window with four slots. Neither window can be opened during a minigame. To fill the pouch for Ice Barrage, Vengeance, Teleblock or Bind in one click, use Pre-Set instead (see Pre-sets).
Pre-sets
Pre-Set fills the pouch with 16,000 of each rune for one of four spells, free of charge:
| Pre-set | Runes | Spellbook |
|---|---|---|
| Ice Barrage | Blood, death and water runes (the Divine rune pouch also gets soul runes in its fourth slot) | Ancient Magicks |
| Vengeance | Astral, earth and death runes | Lunar |
| Teleblock | Law, chaos and death runes | Normal |
| Bind | Nature, earth and water runes | Normal |
- The pre-set replaces the runes that were in the pouch. Wrath and sunfire runes are moved to your inventory instead, so you need room for them.
- If you are on a different spellbook, the game offers to switch you to the one the pre-set is for.
- Pre-Set cannot be used in PvP zones or during an automatic tournament.
Death
You always keep the rune pouch and its runes when you die, with one exception: if you die somewhere you lose items, such as the Wilderness, the wrath runes and sunfire runes in the pouch drop for the player who killed you. The game warns you when you put wrath runes in the pouch: Warning: Your wrath runes will drop on the ground for your opponent on death. See Items Kept on Death for the general rules.

Divine rune pouch

The Divine rune pouch has the same options and rules as the Rune pouch, but it holds four types of rune, up to 16,000 of each. The extra slot is why its Ice Barrage pre-set also adds soul runes. It is kept on death in the same way, without its wrath and sunfire runes, and it cannot be traded.
| Rune types | 3 | 4 |
|---|---|---|
| Runes of each type | 16,000 | 16,000 |
| Where to get it | PK Point Shop (1,000 PK points) | Voting shop (100 vote points), Guardian of Votes |
| Value | 1,000 PKP | 175,000 PKP |
How to get the Divine rune pouch
The Voting shop sells it for 100 vote points. The Guardian of Votes also drops it:
| Source | Quantity | Rate |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | about 1/11 per main drop |
Each main drop of the Guardian of Votes that is not its TokHaar-kal (1/75) is one of 11 items picked at random, and the Divine rune pouch is one of them. It cannot be traded, so it cannot be bought from other players.
