+ | ====== Ruarc Flynn - Druid: Caster/Rune crafter ====== | ||
+ | "As much as I complained about coming here [to Japan] I am actually quite grateful. This world is so much larger and complex than I gave it credit for, and I am learning so much more than I could have by just staying in Ireland. Thanks to this assignment I am becoming knowledgeable in Japanese, but admittedly I am not really sure how useful it will be back in the West. I am even making friends with a good group of folk whom I would never would have met otherwise. So in hindsight I could probably go so far as to say I am indebted to the Council for giving me this station, and maybe even thankful to dad." ~~~Ruarc making idle conversation with Raiko while tending to the grounds. | ||

+ | ===== Abilities ===== | ||

+ | |||
+ | **Secondary Ability:** **Runology** --- Ruarc has the ability to craft runes, which like the Tome give him access to magic spells. This sounds nice, but the more advanced a spell is the more difficult the rune is to craft. Ruarc mainly uses this ability to craft protection runes and health runes. These runes can be carved into most anything, but the most common medium are disk shaped stones as well as certain weapons.\\ | ||

+ | | ||
+ | * **Known Limits:** Ruarc has not yet learned all the dialects used in his Tome and therefore is unable to access most of his magic. The magic he has access to in his Tome takes time to cast as he must recite the spell in Celtic, and if he is interrupted his casting fails. | ||

As such, when he turned fifteen he was presented with the Ancestral Tome, a book that contains the written history of the Celtic heritage for the Irish people along with every spell created by Keepers of past generations. | ||
