Magic is distributed in multicolored chrystal stones called 'Runes', as long as the rune is in the caster's possession they have the power to cast the spell. Runes must be obtained by a challenge of the gods or passed down through family bloodlines.
There are many types of runes, other magics still unknown. This is a list of runes that have already been discovered. Each rune can only carry up to five spells, so even the runes discovered may have hidden spells.
Runes are scales from magic dragons, all located surrounding the mythical city of Nevermore, keeping the barrier well balanced and protected. More often than not, only the gods can obtain the specific scales from the dragons, yet anyone daring enough to challenge one of these dragons may be able to obtain a rare, one-of-a-kind rune that none have seen before. The most common runes and those already obtained are listed below.

Charm Rune (gold) The Charm Rune can only be utilized if the possessor has mastered it's power, meaning that from owner to owner, it must be mastered by it's recipient as it was mastered by the one passing it on. It has no direct skill, but allows it's user to target any living thing they set their eyes upon, and even the deities of Nevermore are not immune to it's effects. [*Note: only one charm rune ever existed and it's possessor is never known, even by the gods*]
Enchantment Rune (magenta) | The magic of the enchantment rune is very difficult to harness but once under control it can be one of the most useful runes to have. Enchantment will make the possessor appear to be whatever the enchanted desires most thereby making them idle to the holder's commands when the enchantment succeeds. |
|
Grief Rune (stone) Has the power to amplify grief a target feels tenfold, mentally or physically. i.e. A slight wound could feel like a lethal one.
Temptation Rune (lavender) | The magic of this rune will tempt people into doing things their minds would normally tell them not to do, whether they want to do it or not. |
~Other Magic~
|
Status Effects Runes (orange) Poison, Sleep, Silence, Paralize, Confuse, Berserk, Blind, Petrify [fear and stone], Sandman
Sandman Rune (ghost white) | The Sandman Rune is more or less an amplifier to the Sleep rune, allowing better control over not only the ability to cast sleep, but to manipulate it. [*Note: the Sandman Rune was created by Orion himself for benign purposes, but was stolen by a daring thief who could never utilize it, thus the rune floated around until the holder of the Dragon Sleep Orb was born*] |
|
Support Magic Runes (teal) Dispell, MP Absorb, HP Absorb, Protect, Escape, Sense, Reflect, Steal, Counter, Shield, Barrier, Slash-All, Chance
Chance Rune (turquoise) | The Chance rune has no set subskills, but grants it's possessor a mystical mixture of luck, risk and gamble. So highly protected because of it's potential for misuse, the rune was born along with it's possessor, also the holder of the Chance Orb. |
~Gifted Magic~
|
Age Rune (Indigo) This run can keep it's possessor practically ageless, allowing them to revert from any age from infant to ancient, with any age their minds retain the same. However, this rune does have hidden dangers and must be used with a mastered hand less it's user makes themselves or their target too old or too young with lethal effects. **This is NOT like the immortality rune-possessor is still vulnerable to death. [*Note: this rune is only allowed to be possessed by High Priests/Priestesses of the gods*]
Empty Rune (empty) | This rune will only work in a master's hand, and similar to the charm rune, it can only be utilized if the current possessor has mastered it's power. It can cast any runic magic, however, each type of magic must be mastered individually before it can be used effectively. This rune is exceptionally powerful but takes infinate years to master entirely. [*Note: this rune is only allowed to be possessed by High Priests/Priestesses of the gods*] |
~Manmade Magic~
|
Alchemy Rune (clear) Fingerprint: allows possessor to see the very soul of target Biomech: allows possessor to unravel target's genetic code Trap the Soul: allows possessor to trap the soul of any living target within the rune itself [*Note: the alchemy runes were created on Exile, but only one still remains in existance*] |
