Ancient Runes: Create a rune

polly

Hello guys this is your Ancient Runes prefect stepping in to give you another piece to do. ^.^

Create a Rune

The aim of this assignment is to make up a rune, what is the History behind it? How and where was it found? If it was found if not is this rune just a myth? Is it cursed? What time period is it from? Where is the rune kept now? Try to give as much detail as you can check spellings and remember to site all sources. Make sure it is creative. Try not to base it on any rune you have seen, heard or done about. Make it totally unique.

Imast (i `mahst) is a rune that was recently discovered in South America. This rune is believed to be a symbol very important to ancient Mayan wizards. It is still unknown what the meaning was. So far, clues suggest that it either symbolizes great wealth for the possessor...or a goat. Currently this delicate rune is being kept in an undisclosed location for research. Once we have studied it to our satisfaction, it will be released to a local museum.

Beschwerden Rune

Not a rune most would like to run into, it shows signs that all will not be well. It represents pain like broken bones and other medical related problems. First discovered by Frank Beschwerden in the 1400's while he was going through his grandmother's old belongings. As to where the rune is is a mystery to us all. After Frank had found this card his life was filled with many medcial problems. One nieghbor said that he had tried to burn it but ended up getting burns all over his body. Ever since then no one has heard or even seen the rune.

Red Rune

This rune has been encircling one of several riches families. It gets passed down through people of high importance. Standing between rich or poor, this rune shines above anything you could ever imagine. Its found deep in the tropical rainforest. Most people wouldn't dare think about entering the rainforest, but to some its a form of life that can't cease to exist.

I believe it was found in the 1830's by the Read family. They were seeking shelter and happen to find this strange rune. Their youngest son meant to say READ but instead said RED.

The rune now stays in possession on the Reads past generations. It seems to stay in the family line and gets passed on to the first born child.

Fire rune

The fire rune was discovered in the eastern Japan, by Japanese muggles who were doing research on the extinction of the muggle bird, the dodo. They took it for analyse not to discover anything in particular about it. That night it was stolen away by our top wizard scientist who later discovered it to be a precious rune belonging to the ancient wizard molena milchard, who lived in the 16th century Japan and travelled the globe in search of new magic and spells. He was kept away from by muggles as some had heard mysterious things about him and that he was cursed by an evilly bound spell which made sure he died alone. When he died his family travelled back to Japan to bury his corpse and stow away his ancient books and runes. These were scattered across all of japan and wizards from all ages have been trying to locate them and see if such a curse exists. The rune is now being kept in the Glasgow headquarters for magical mysterys and is still trying to be experimented on.

Music Rune

Θεός όπως τη μουσική is a rune that is carved on many ancient instruments in Greece. After many years of scientific study and research, the rune was translated into 'god like music.' Scientist say that the rune symbolize the fact that they were only carved on instruments that the royal family, Δύναμη δράκων, used showing that the instruments are 'god like' or in a higher rank: the royal family. After uncovering a total of 7 different instruments in different coffins of the royal family (it seemed like the instruments were buried along with the dead person), scientists' discovery of the rune stopped. They are studying a simlar rune in a royal tomb in Egypt and say that the runes may be the same one - or have a intertwinted connection. A copy of the rune can be found in the Greek History Museum (Ελληνική ιστορία).
