Blood Runes

“Feel the innate power of Man, and clamor.”

The runes of Blood Magic are an ancient art that incites differentiating function based on dialectic design. The runes found within the Archdragon’s Canon are bound to an “alphabet”, where every letter is likely capable of cooperating with the other upon the use of Genus and the involvement of magics related with said rune. There are laws to Blood Runes that prevent deviation from their proper use; rules bound to the letters, or else they are jumbled, their meaning nullified and senseless.

 

The laws of the Blood Runes are as thus;

 

i; The Runes of Primeval, Existential and Total power are reserved for the sole use in rituals. They cannot be engraved onto people or objects to imbue power in them, and attempts to do so will only lead to failure or violent, combustive result.

 

ii; The Runes of Force are the only runes able to be placed upon a living individual with the intent of “bind” or “curse” them. As there only exists two Runes of Force, being the Runes of Draining and Binding, their use is limited but still have a role in the creation of thralls or the enslavement of beings pulled from other cosmic planes.

 

iii; The Blood Runes must always be activated with Genus in order for them to function. This is why a Blood Mage who put Runes of Binding upon another individual cannot retain perpetual control over them, or why rituals enacted with these runes cannot last forever. There must be a sacrifice in order for power to be attained, and the flow of blood is the sacrifice demanded.

 

These laws prevent Blood Runes from mimicking the nature of other established runic powers. With the Rune of Power being nullified, what it was once used for, like granting Dreadknights their strength and boosting the power of rituals, is now passed on to the practice of blood sacrifice to power ratios. The more blood is spilt, the higher the power of the ritual shall be.

 

[ The purpose of this lore is to circumvent and clarify the exact use of Blood Runes, so stuff like Blood Rune enchantments and self-augmentation can be prevented. ]
