I think it would be really cool if, in the next game, we would be able to have access to corrupted runes that the player character could use to upgrade their powers in a much more powerful direction, though with consequences to them such as with corrupted bone charms. For example, lets say using a corrupted rune to upgrade displace (I know displace can't be upgraded with runes. I've played DOTO so no need to say "but thats not how it works!'") to increase its travel distance much more than that of the likes of blinkcould be upgraded, but displacing into someone would be lethal no matter what. Something like that. And the only way to obtain the skull component of a corrupted rune is to kill someone and extract the skull. And to keep it balanced so that the player can't just carry 200 skulls and then make 200 corrupted runes, there should be a chance, whether medium or high, that the corrupted rune will simply shatter or be destroyed in the process. The concept of the corrupted rune is something that I found very interesting and could further expand on the power capabilities of future characters in the dishonored series. And I say future characters instead of possible future characters since I believe it was Harvey Smith that stated that DOTO was simply the end of the Kaldwin arc and not the end of dishonored.
