==Notes==
* This barrel can be thrown as an action, but will not detonate unless reduced to 0 hp by the throw or deliberately ignited by other means.
*If the barrel and the [[Runepowder Vial]] are stolen before engaging in dialogue, Philomeen will turn hostile. This can be circumvented by engaging her in dialogue with 1 party member and have another steal only the barrel, then only steal the vial after she mentions it in dialogue, stealing it before will turn her hostile.
*An ignited runepowder barrel produces an explosion with an enormous blast radius of '''~60 ft.''' Exercise extreme caution, especially in Honour Mode.
**An active [[Globe of Invulnerability]] spell will completely negate damage from an exploding Runepowder Barrel, even a directly-adjacent one. This can be used to great effect in many fights, provided one is willing to spend both a barrel and a scroll/spell slot and ensures that any nearby party members, especially the Globe's caster, are within the spell's area-of-effect.
