what’s runic magic in CoL? :0

Runic Magic is sorta a weird mix of elemental, physical & spiritual magic. Able to either manefest/create objects OR enchant a item.

It existed way before Animus did (in my wof universe) & it has a few sub sets. One of them being the psyche based one, which may or may not evolved into the Animus we know today- (but at this point it literally became it own thing that we really can't call it Runic anymore can we?)

As forit consequences of using it. Here's the thing, there's only consequences IF YOU USE IT FOR EVIL! Which is why a lot of tribes (especially the Gaiawings) have strict rules about it.

Now it isn't truly powerful, but if used correctly, it can be. But it can be powerful in 2 ways, helpfully or... dangerously...

Also objects enchanted by/created by Runic-born dragons are referred to as "Runes" & there's a few types of them. Here's the ones currently: Elemental, Spiritual, psychological, & physical.

Psychological Runes are considered as "threats" & are SCRICTLY to be handled by trusted individuals. Anyone who DARES uses ANY Psychological Rune for evil will be considered a terrorist & thrown down into the pits of the dammed.

Thats... kinda it ig? Idk this concept has been with me for awhile since my screb days & recently I just stated to make lore for it.

What receiving a super boop feels like

[backpackingspace]

this isn't my writing blog but

wrote some of the most messed up world building I've ever concocted before. Which is saying something bc growing up my short stories got my parents frequently called in

[solarsteam]

◇Honestly love how I already have a HoB oc, yet I didn't even draw him as yet.◇

◇Anyways, his name is Aviator, or Av for short. Ae uses he/ ae pronouns and is an inventor. He also has some cool steampunk-eque wings inspired by the Da Vinci's ornithopter. ◇

[song-of-the-rune]

I have deleted the gmail with my old name on it. I'm going to call that enough for today. This is way more exhausting than it has any right to be @_@

[octastims]

Trying to resist the urge to make HoB stimboards of the protagonist, exhero and that one elder in the lore room.

[vassal-of-nightjars]

Here's some Epic/ Odyssey stuff I think would be cool/sad.

1. Odysseus not aging and experiencing time differently on Calypso's island, so he has to deal with his little sister Ctimene being older than him when he gets home.

2. Argos being a month old puppy that Ody and Penelope got to be a friend for Telemachus.

3. Ctimene having been newly pregnant with Eurylochus's daughter when he left.

4. This is less a headcanon and more of a detail in the Odyssey. Athena magically putting Penelope to sleep whenever she was up late crying.

5. Stolen headcanon, but what if Odysseus thought Penelope was Helen when they met because all he knew about Helen was that she was the most beautiful girl in the world.

6. Circe having magic runic tattoos to mark her power, and moly temporarily giving Ody those same tats

EVERYONE SHUT THE FUCK UP LOOK LOOK LOOK RUNIC HAS A HUMAN DISGUISE

[octahedral-chaos]

Sometimes I remember that most of the games I love are extremely obscure and at most have five other people in the fandom.

Anyways, do anyone else knows about 140, THOTH, HoB, OCTAHEDRON: Transfixed Edition, THUMPER, VVVVVV, Billie Bust Up, NERVE (Gunfish Games), TY the Tasmanian Tiger, Owlboy and/or JUMPGRID?

[preservationofnormalcy]

neighbors smokin shit again. multicolor sparkly smoke. are yo guys gonna come down or do i put another round of buckshot through the wall?

Please do not do that. We -- wait, ANOTHER?

Look buddy, I get annoyed at wizards just the same as any mun mun mun mundane human, but if everyone shot at a wizard every time they did something obnoxious there'd be no wizards left. No offense, wizards.

Multicolor sparkly smoke...they might be, uh. Partaking in what we used to call hexweed. That good good cryptograss. Callin' up Mystic Jane for her special sorcery stash. Doing that Green Invocation.

Oh my god.

Burning that herb in the crystal ball. Rolling the occult joint the likes of which wizardkind had never seen. Runic reefer tended by the most spaced out spellcaster on the eastern seaboard. Smoking the kind of stuff that gives you illegal divinations, that wicked wicca-kush liable to make you live deliciously. Skunky six leafed plants watered with pure alchemy, you know what I mean.

That's not legal in very many states, still federally restricted. If you can live with the idea of being a narc you can report it through standard LEP Recon team channels.

...what?

[octastims]

Okay I decided to try to write some image descriptions, so here they are!

Image ID: 9 gifs of the game HoB, all showing the Protagonist and Rogue Player. Beginning from top left, it shows:

Gif 1: The Queen offering the Protagonist her hand, with Rogue Player by her side, kneeling. The protagonist is also partially visible. The Protagonist swings their sword at the Queen, causing Rogue Player to jump in front of the Queen and block the strike with their "sword".

Gif 2: The Rogue Player killing a lanky enemy with their "sword", with the Protagonist looking on in confusion

Gif 3: The Protagonist stabbing a Corruption Orb (Known as "Psychorb" in the concept art) in the eye, causing some blood to spill, before it explodes.

Gif 4: A slit horse nuzzling the Protagonist, causing them to stumble backwards.

Gif 5: The Protagonist taking out a runestone, before placing it on the pedestal.

Gif 6: The "world raise" cutscene for a new area. It shows the level above ground, showing off the mechanical interior, before falling into place. The Protagonist gets up from the ground, before blocking their face with their prosthetic arm.

Gif 7: The protagonist freeing a sprite from a corruption cage. Said sprite immediately teleports.

Gif 8: The Rogue Player offers a runestone, places it on the ground and backs away with arms slightly outstretched, seemingly to indicate no harm. In the background, the Protagonist is seen staring a bit confused, with the Construct's arm, which is also visible, blocking them in a protective manner.

Gif 9: The Protagonist placing their prosthetic arm on a button, causing the symbol to glow slightly.

Summaries:

Paeliae - Magic politician

A mage living in the period when the god vs mages war starts. (8 BD, before dissolution) He is a politician, despite having no patience for the ages old elvish mages who currently run the council. He is obsessed with leaving a lasting legacy even if that means dying today. As such he is vehemently against the concept of immortality, During the war he helps negotiate with the gods to come to a truce. 27, He/Him.

Xaeren - Runic Inventor

Xaeren designed 42 of the 47 runes and uses them to protect himself from the vengeful goddess Schaeres. When she finally attacks him, Xaeren realises there were very few limits to what he could do with the runes and sets out to kill Schaeres, both as payback and just to prove that he can. But some things can’t be done alone…

Xaeren lore 1

Xaeren lore 2- (This is a bit old so some of the Kell stuff has changed)

Xaeren lore 3

Kell - Magic Student

Xaeren rescues her from a small dock town and gets her a place at the Lysandri school of magic. Kell is thrust into a world of magic and has to keep up with the help of Xaeren’s tutoring, but as she begins to fit in with the mages there, her loyalty to the criminal godkiller Xaeren comes into question.

Tyro - Traumatised Sorcerer

lives in the modern day (about 1500 PD, post-dissolution). They have recently escaped from the abusive cult that adopted them as a child, with their adoptive brother Apollo. They are a sorcerer, so have born magic, but also we’re taught to use runes by the cult. They never used them because of trauma but they could if they wanted to. They are currently running from the cult and trying not to be noticed by the government, who take in all sorcerer children so they can have a monopoly on magic. They have found a family in some other sorcerers living in an abandoned manor outside the city. 17, They/them

Apollo - adopted older brother of Tyro.

He took care of them and the others in the cult, despite being abused severely himself. Despite the trauma he is a very powerful runic. He is currently being attacked by, and looking for other cults like the one he was adopted into to help other children like him. 21, He/They

Ez and Rin (~1000 BD)- The gay bois, who definitely don’t start the apocalypse.

Ez (short for Ezemhaziel) is the god of refined magic. He falls in love with Rin when he is researching to create the runes. He is somewhat of a Prometheus figure, as he brings the first magic to mortals by teaching Rin.

Rin is a gardener working for one of the altic kings, who equally loves Ez for his magic and creativity. Ez and Rin end up working on the runes together. The other gods get mad that Ez gave magic to a mortal, and they let the mortals murder Rin. Ez is mad. This will spiral and cause the start of the godly war, which then ushers in the godly mages war, where 3/4 of all mages die and the gods are removed from the world.

Ezemhaziel lore

Daimion and Marsh - the regretful and the merry murderer

Daimion and marsh grew up together being trained for an elite military unit, which they both got into. While in the unit they are ordered to fire on civilians and they do it, but later Daimion regrets killing innocents and leaves the unit without notice. He goes on to find the daughter of one of the people he murdered that day and the woman who has been taking care of her. He protects them fiercely and tries to make up for what he did. Marsh however, fully commits to the ‘I kill people as a job, I might as well enjoy it’ and ends up being so recklessly violent that he is imprisoned in the highest security jail in the country, which he later breaks out of to commit a massacre, then returns to his cell like nothing happened. This occurs a couple of times until Daimion has to go get him. - Marsh intro - Marsh lore

Just a brief overview of some of the things I am currently working on. I plan to post more about the magic systems and historical events of the world. I also post maps.
