Rune questions

Post by Aspiria »

In your opinion, which set of runes are the best to use? For magical, bindrunes, divinatory, uses etc? And why? I don't mean like a certain set to buy, but elder futhark, younger futhark, etc.

I have only worked with the Elder at this point but I am going to add the Anglo Saxon once I have all the Futhark down.

The Younger Futhark or the Anglo Saxon rune set is
The most recommended in the Gild. The reason why is
The Elder was used quite a bit in grave magic- keeping
Evil spirits in the grave. Also in many curses.
The younger Futhark was used for almost every type of
Magic one can imagine.
The good thing about using the Anglo Saxon set is it does
Not require learning a new set of runes or rune names. And
The native language for that rune set was Anglo Saxon. Which
Is more true to the tradition.
