if they only form there doesnt have to be a crafting skill and then does everyone goes and pick up the glypths
and then they wont be valuable anymore.
but if u go like u got to get special  talisman to get to the place and then have to have some pecial stones and then u go and take the stuff needed to form the glypths and put them all together so they wil form a glypth after a few minutes.

then i would say good thinking :P

On Glyphs: From PS Player\'s Guide
They are found in quests, left by ancestors, stolen or purchased. They are found in nature with no real explanation, no one knows exactly why they form, but when some type of energy is strongly present in one place a glyph can appear. Glyphs appear as marks on very different materials from a leaf to the fur of an animal, and usually of any type of rock.



hmmm... any type of rock... so it is conceivable for a kran to become a walking glyph.... or even a walking multi glyph....

the players guide says that they dont know where to be found and thats wy there aint a skill for crafting them but if u just make a quest that explains how u can   so it aint a reason that the playersguide says it aint known jet

I don\'t think there should be a glyph crafting profession just like one can craft swords, etc.

However I do see the option of glyph farms. They say glyphs appear in nature so if someone were to discover the circumstances and resources needed to create glyphs one could cultivate them in specialized farms. But these should be extremely expensive and work intensive to run so definitely not for just anyone. Glyphs need to remain relatively rare and expensive to prevent everyone becoming a mage I think.

that is  hard to make mate  but if u just make the  crafting glypth skill  like this: first do a quest   and in that quest u discover how glypths appear and wat neaded to make one(resourses would be verry rare),u should enter a spot   like a cave to  find the resourses and then put thm all together in a bottle and then  let it  form a glypt   and the forming prosses would take like  few hours  maby days   so the process would be verry long and the glypths would still be verry rare and expensive.
the time it takes to form  will depend on how much  resouses u get and how much resourses u can get in like 1 time mining or harvesting would depend on ur glypth crafting skill.

like  to craft a glypt u need 100 glypt ore  50 dark/crystal/... water and 75 mushrooms
to make one   the time will depend on how much u put in the bottle   lie wen u put just this in the bottle  it will be ready in like 2 days  if u do double it would be ready in like 1 day if u do triple times the resourses in it it would be ready in like 16 hours  if u put 4 times the resourses in it it would take 12 hours  etcetra .

def\'s kep up the good work

That lacks originality man .. think outside of the box! :P

Though I do like the cave image, the farms could be located in some damp caverns crawling with plantlife and bugs. There would be pools of water and crystals randomly popping up on the walls, floor and ceiling.
Some of those crystals could transform into glyphs then when they are treated in the right way.

And if there will be a quest to show someone how to make glyphs I suggest the quest is very limited so only a handful of people can discover that knowledge. Either because the quest is only available a limited number of times or that the requirements to recieve or complete the quest are so high, not everyone will be able to complete it. For example you \'d need to be a very skilled magician along with having a lot of intelligence to understand the knowledge. One would also need to have a substantial ammount of charisma to convince whoever posseses the knowledge to cultivate glyphs to share it with you. Then one would need to posses knowledge of the brown way for example to be able to grow the glyphs as well as possesing the right type of spells, resources and the proper location.
