| There are twenty two runes in total, twenty of the lesser runes and two greater.
The twenty lesser runes encompass the different facets of life -- from death to birth to joy to sorrow.
The Journey Rune is the first of the greater runes and connects the lesser runes together, but it is the God Rune, the greatest of them all, that binds them together in a perfect union. I have exported the first part of the chapter on Rune Mastery as a pdf.
The Lesser Runes
Each of the lesser runes represents some facet of life.
These are realized in part by the attribute and skills governed by the rune.
The remainder of this representation is found in the Quest Riddle, the Quest for Mastery and the powers obtained through mastery of the rune.
For example, the Beast rune governs constitution as well as Animal Husbandry, Animal Lore, Animal Training, Camouflage, Desert Survival, Plains Survival, Trapping and Woodland Survival.
The quest for its mastery begins in the wilds where the questor will meditate for a week at which time the quest riddle will be revealed.
After answering this riddle the object of the quest itself will be revealed to the character -- perhaps the capture of a dragon.
Once the quest is completed the character will become a master of the rune.
