Subject: 32848304
Alias: Silvina
Status of Runes: Uninvoked
Observations & Notes:
Silvina and Huelog are happy whenever they discover they have hatched a true Runecatcher, though they know it will be a difficult road ahead for the young dragons. Silvina has no desire to invoke her runes, but passes along her wisdom to her hatchlings as they head out into the world and make their own decisions.
Rune powers are not to be taken lightly. Within SIlvina's line, their runes tend towards the powers of the mind. Silviona's own powers are that of Empathy and being able to read the emotional status of those around her. It is how she knew for certain that Huelog truly loved her. Unless necessary, she keeps this information to herself and only uses it when needed by the Lair or in defense of herself and family.There are legends of a past ancestor who could actually cast an emotional state on those around them, and Silvina suspects they had invoked their runes to have such strength. Silvina cautions her offspring to be careful and learn to control whatever powers manifest.
Runes & Their Meanings
It's said that runes are indecipherable for a reason. That if we were to read them, to speak what they said aloud, the consequences would be cataclysmic. A little known fact, however, is that every dragon with runes knows how to read theirs and theirs alone. They can choose — once, for this is an unpredictable and mighty power — to speak words and phrases the runes have inscribed across their scales. This choice is not to be treated lightly, and the results will change the dragon forever.
For the runes upon a dragon are not random. Fate, destiny, kismet, providence - some force bigger than any of us decides what runes a dragon will bear, and once invoked, the power that lay dormant awakens. It can manifest in many ways — perhaps a hobby becomes a passion, or a knack for something becomes a talent. Perhaps an introverted, quiet dragon retreats from the world to become a hermit, or an effusive, charismatic dragon becomes an overnight sensation.
However, the changes are not always benign. Once the power of the runes is unleashed, it needs to be directed somewhere. There have been reports of dragons gaining extrasensory abilities — shy dragons turning invisible, scholarly dragons developing perfect recall, volatile dragons becoming beacons of incandescent flame when they lose their temper.
Invocation is an unstable process. There are horror stories of dragons who went crazy, of those who were unable to deal with their newfound power and fled civilization entirely, of those who one day simply vanished — and no one could really remember their name. The outcomes are both beautiful and terrible, and awakening one's runes is a hefty gamble.
Not all dragons choose to invoke their runes, of course. Even unspoken, however, the runes retain their power. Dragons who choose not to invoke their runes occasionally have side effects — chronic fatigue, a short temper, an inability to concentrate. The potency of the runes cannot be denied, and it must manifest somewhere, somehow. Where and how? That's up to the dragon — and the runes.
