Practitioners of [[Runelore]], such as [[Shamans]] and [[Runewardens]], possess the ability to sketch various '''runes''' on themselves, other persons, the ground, [[totems]], [[weapons]] and [[armour]]. In doing so a variety of beneficial or harmful effects may be achieved.   
Practitioners of [[Runelore]], namely members of the [[Runewarden]] [[class]], possess the [[:Category:Abilities|ability]] to sketch various '''runes''' on themselves, other people, the ground, [[totem|totems]], [[weapons]], and [[armour]]. By doing so, a variety of desired beneficial or harmful effects can be achieved.   


Legend states that Ayar Himself once stood upon the World Tree branch etched the original Twenty-Nine runes of Runelore.  Sometime later this branch was cut off and the Tree itself began to decay causing five of the original runes to be lost.  The family of Tithian and Phineas, the House tutors of the Spirit Walkers and Wardens of the Cerulean Spire respectively, found a way to hold the decay at bay with a seal, however.  The seal was broken in two and held by these tutors until recent times when after attacking them both, a malevolent spirit stole these protective shards.  Using remnants of a lullaby sung to the brothers when they were children as clues, a way to reforge the fallen branch was discovered and the decay of the Yggdrasil was halted. Through the collective efforts of Shamans and Runewardens, the names of the runes were painstakingly re-etched upon the tree, giving power to all of the runes once again, including these five runes previously lost to mortalkind.

The following is a list of the runes re-etched upon the Yggdrasil and currently accessible to users of Runelore:
Legend states that [[Ayar]] Himself once stood upon a branch of the [[Yggdrasil|World Tree]] and etched the original twenty-nine runes of Runelore. Sometime later this branch was cut off, however, and the tree itself began to decay, causing five of the original runes to be lost.

The brothers [[Tithian]] and [[Phineus]], [[:Category:Houses|House]] [[:Category:tutors|tutors]] to the [[Spirit Walkers]] and the [[Wardens of the Cerulean Spire]] respectively, found a way to hold the decay at bay with a seal.

The World Tree once again began to decay, along with it the various runic abilities within Runelore.
*Kena               A rune to inspire fear.

Using remnants of a lullaby sung to the brothers when they were children as clues, [[adventurers]] discovered a way to reforge the fallen branch and halt the decay of [[Yggdrasil]]. Through the collective efforts of Shamans and Runewardens, the names of the runes were painstakingly re-etched upon the tree, restoring power to all of the runes once again, including the five runes previously lost to mortalkind.
*Fehu               Causes sleeping urges.
 
*Pithakhan           Attack the mental reserves of your enemies.
