Description Runic s are one of the few magic-users who do not channel mana. Instead their power comes through runes. The Elder Deities' awakening shattered the seals encasing them in slumber, sending fragments to all ends of Erandur. This is the origin of all runes. There are eight sets, each attuned to the holy elements of creation: Time , Fire , Shade, Earth, Water , Air , Illusion , and Halo . As the strength of the bond between the bearer and the rune increases, so does the power and control exercised. The act of mastery comes when the rune's power has been fully absorbed.  It is important to remember that runes possess a certain degree of free will. Bonding with one often requires a combination of cooperation and domination. Generally speaking, a rune's power is often tied to how strong that rune's will is. This can create problems for the Runic who does do his research. For example, it is impossible to bond with the Sylvan Rune without previously mastering the Scale Rune. Here we examine the Runes of Earth.

The Scroll of Earth was designed to reflect a gate. The Runes of Earth hold a great deal of influence over nature; botanical growth, soil quality, crop yields, even medicinal needs, and holds balance of the Spring Season, just to name a few of their capabilities. Tales say the country of Sunaj became famous for their pottery thanks to a Runic who used the Clay Rune to enchant bricks before sculpting. The manner and possibility in which a mastered rune can be used is limited only by one's dreams. The Runes of Earth are as follows, from left to right;


Acorn, Araum, Blossom, Clay, Dome, Dryad,
Fae, Fang, Hunt, Ivy, Leaf,
Lyme, Nettle,
Sap, Scale, Soma, Sylvan.

I think there might be some confusion. These runes are 100% made up and exist only within the boundaries of my original fantasy world.
