Disable Technology
Invoking this rune creates a strong electromagnetic pulse in a small radius, making it basically analogic to an EMP grenade. You can imbue this rune into a talisman, making it a decent defensive item.
Drain Blood
- This rune instantly heals you of some brute damage at the expense a person placed on top of the rune. Whenever you invoke a drain rune, ALL drain runes in very large radius are activated, draining blood from anyone located on top of those runes. This includes yourself, though the blood you drain from yourself just comes back to you. This might help you identify this rune when studying words. One drain gives up to 25HP per each victim, but you can repeat it if you need more. Draining only works on living people, so you might need to recharge your "Battery" once its empty. Drinking too much blood at once might cause blood hunger.

Raise Dead
- This rune allows for the resurrection of any dead person. You will need a dead human body and a living human sacrifice. Make 2 raise dead runes.

When you invoke the rune, the life force of the living human will be transferred into the dead body, allowing a ghost standing on top of the dead body will enter it, instantly and fully healing it. Use other runes to ensure there is a ghost ready to be resurrected.
