The Four Runes of the Dragon by Ultima228 (critique requested)

The Four Runes:

The First Rune: Pain
"Pain flows through the warriors heart granting them great strength through it all" - Ranpushin

Pain - Packarco (old tounge)
The first rune activates when the wielder is hit with a powerful attack, something as little as a broken bone would suffice, however it can be driven further up the stronger the attack that lands. This most powerful attack was unleash by Arashi Naiya a young warrior who wielded Ranpushin's might against a great foe and after having his body slammed into the ground from over 500 feet and surviving, he unleashed the first rune as a counter attack. This was also the same date that The Night Master fell, a powerful general from Omega's realm of Oblivion

The Second Rune: Sorrow
"Sorrow wells up within the warriors soul granting them the speed of their flowing tears" - Mizushin

Sorrow - Socorain
The second rune activates when the wielder of the blade takes many blows in a short period of time. Something as little as 3 blows in a minute would activate the weakest state of the rune, the most powerful version was unleashed by Mizushin's wielder who's name was lost to history after she suffered 100 blows in a single minute.

The Thrid Rune: Rage
"Rage is a powerful thing that boils within the warriors blood, granting them an immense burst of speed and strength combined" - Kasaishin

Rage - Kironko
The thrid rune activates when the wielder is hit with an extremly powerful magical based attack. Something as little as a level 50 kido from that world would suffice. The most powerful recorded use was by a wielder of Kasaishin's power after the took a full enchantation level 89 Hado attack and let their rage boil over. The landscape is still charred and nothing will grow.

The Fourth Rune: Vengence
"Vengence is both a gift and a curse, it will stand clear in the warriors mind granting absolute power, but at the cost of their life" - Raikoushin

Vengence - Venhimosono

The fourth and final rune activates only after the wielder has suffered a blow that would have killed them, as well each of the other runes must have been activated. And instead of the death blow, for a short period of time they gain such immense power that it has only been used 9 times, 1 per elemental heart. The most powerful recording of this was when Ivellious Tempest finally squared off against Omega in his lost homelands of Dragusinkusekki. After fighting the monster to what would have appeared to be a standstill the beast unleashed a powerful blast of pure malice and raw hatred from it's maw that would have left any lesser warrior obliterated then and there. However, Ivellious's desire to avenge his fallen home cause him to rise back up and unleash the fourth rune. This raw power is often enough to decimate anything and anybody who happens to befall this attack. The only known time when two versions of the 4th Rune collided were when the twin brothers Kaen and Nenshou Suto-mo unleashed it when Raikoushin and Ankokushin were fighting one of their many battles, the collision of the two annilated an entire continent and sent shockwaves out to the sea surrounding it.

The "Fifth" Rune:
Though this ability is very much a secret there is indeed a "Fifth Rune" however, it is used by both The Runik wielders and the Fangs Wielders and as such has been labeled as "The Claw of the Dragon" this form is by far more powerful than the 4th Rune, however to use it the wielder must have survived the 4th Rune itself, as such it was only done 9 times. Each will be explained in each of the individual Elemental Hearts detailed character sheet. All 9 were recorded and used during the final conflict when the Elemental Hearts rose to challenge Omega after finally returning to their home world of Dragusinkusekki.

Many centuries had passed since they had originally fallen from that world and during that time an army was gathered by each of the wielders to face off against the hoardes of Oblivion.

his is the 4 Runes of the Dragon, the Law written out and created by Raikoushin himself for a new fighting style to duel Ankokoushin back before the world was lost to Omega and his world of Oblivion.

Each one has a name in the old tongue and this document describes each one, what is needed to activate them and what they will do most of the time.
