Craft your own unique Bonecharms, with some chance of corruption.

Strategic Tips

Craft your own Bonecharms by selecting a combination of mystical Traits, and expending Raw Whalebone as a resource.

Trait effects are cumulative — if you use a Trait more than once, its effect stacks, becoming stronger.

Sometimes, Bonecharms get corrupted during crafting, and will also have negative Traits. Bonecharms with 3 or 4 Traits are more likely to be corrupted.

Sacrifice Bonecharms to discover new Traits and gain Raw Whalebone.

Bonecharm Crafting

Bonecharms provide minor supernatural benefits. Locate them by listening for the “song” they emit, or use the Heart to detect them from further away. By default, you can equip up to 5 Bonecharms at once in the Bonecharms section of the Journal.
Corrupt and Black Bonecharms are rare and powerful, offering exotic Traits. But Corrupt Bonecharms are unstable, and also possess negative Traits.
With the Bonecharm Crafting Enhancement, you can craft new Bonecharms by sacrificing Bonecharms and Runes you’ve found in the world to learn new Traits and obtain Raw Whalebone. (You cannot learn the Traits from Corrupt or Black Bonecharms.)
