Arcane Symbols.....................| 201 101
Disarming Traps....................| 0 0
You carefully begin to examine a plain modwir strongbox for traps...
You notice some spiderweb-like scratches on the lock plate which seem, after some bit of scrutiny, too organized to be just wear and tear -- it might be some type of glyph spell.
It looks like an extremely difficult trap (about -238).
You still have a good enough picture of the trap in your mind, that you could try to disarm it.
Roundtime: 19 sec.
You gesture.
You become calm and focused.
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.
Having discovered a trap on the strongbox you begin to carefully attempt to disarm it...
You feel like you've made a good attempt.
Knowing how delicate magical glyphs can be, you scrape some extra lines into the markings hoping to alter their meaning and defeat the spell they may hold.
[You have just beaten your personal best trap of -76!]
Roundtime: 29 sec.
Most difficult trap disarmed: -222

That's pretty much straight Arcane Symbols ranks, plus some stat bonuses and a d100 directly translating to the difficulty of glyph traps. Awesome.
I saw that I could get the trap without lore, but needed a very high roll. Still needed a moderately high roll after, but nothing crazy.

I just wish after disabling the glyph you could open in through other means than picking.
I mean, the glyph's no longer there. . . right?

Well, it says that you alter the glyph to change its meaning, so I guess it's still there.
I'm not sure why I can't just file the whole damn thing away.
