An example of what I'm thinking of, which may be overpowered as opposed to underpowered.

OTHALA (Retreat) [Rune]
Prerequisites
Two other [Rune] feat
Benefit
You may, as an immediate action, transport yourself to a location within [5 times the number of rune feats you have] feet. You must have Line of Sight and Line of Effect to this location, but you do not provoke Attacks of Opportunity from this movement. To active this abillity, you must use two Rune Points.
In addition, add two Rune Points to your Rune Pool.
Well, this is kinda hard to balance.

These feats give more than just the listed effect. Taken together, they scale quadratically as each new feat makes each previous feat last longer, be more effective and be usable more frequently. Aslo, if you get Rune A, you get one power. Get A and B and you get A, B, and AB. A, B and C nets you A, B, C, AB, AC, BC and ABC.

1->4->7 is a pretty decent rate of increase, and ABC would be the kind of ability you'd feel ok sinking three feats for.

So, yeah, I think I'll make Othala a 2-rune Phrase.
