===Learning Words===
===Learning Words===


Once you've become a cultist, learning words will be key. There are 10 words used for rune scribing, what they translate to are: "travel", "self", "see", "Hell", "blood", "join", "technology", "destroy", "hide", and "other". Your Arcane tome, however, requires research and translation. Specifically, you must have words translated in its Notes section before you can scribe any runes that involve those words. Every cultist remembers the words for "join," "blood" and "self," which are the words that make up the conversion rune.

Every cultist remembers the words for "hell," "join," "blood," and "self," which are the words that make up the conversion rune and sacrifice rune.


There are three ways to find out the meaning of words. The primary method is conversion. You can convert crewmates -- not security, as they are loyalty implanted, or the chaplain, as he is immune -- which will please the elders enough for them to grant you a word translation. You can also use sacrifice runes once they are available to sacrifice humans and monkeys. With each sacrifice comes a chance to suddenly remember a rune word. The final way is through trial and error. Knowing at least one word (preferably two) needed for a rune, you can find out the the other word(s) if you are clever. Trying to use a rune you scribed with incorrect translations does a great deal of brute damage, but all proper runes always have fixed colors and sprites, while incorrect runes are random colors, the exception being Armor runes which will always be random colors.

If you were not given a tome, ignore this section. If you were given a tome, then read the notes. If the cultist was sensible, he has copied over words to your tome for you to use. If not, wait until you find another cultist and ask them in a whisper to add to your tome. Once they do, you can scribe a convert rune in a secure location and use any way of stunning them, preferably a stun talisman, to convert them. Other ways work but they may have time to scream for help.
