Runes are the main component needed to cast spells in ProjectRS06. You can either buy them from players or a rune shop or craft them yourself with the runecrafting skill. There are many types of runes in the game, resembling different kinds of components in Gielinor. Some are of nature-alignment, such as the Fire, Water, Air and Earth runes. Others are part of the body: the Body, Blood and Mind runes. The Chaos Rune may be aligned with Zamorak or part of the outer space, the Law rune with Saradomin or Human Reign, and the Nature rune with Guthix, or with the Death rune, together aligned to something part of life.
