Rune Dragon (Adult)

Rune dragons have an innate insight on the power of runes. Most rune dragons keep a variety of runes etched on their scales, which their bodies can magically empower. They typically don't cast spells themselves, instead relying on their ability to create runes on the fly to produce desired effects. A rune dragon often refers to their hoard as their library, as it's full of important historical texts, plays, speeches, textbooks, and spellbooks written by people of different cultures in a variety of languages. While they can often speak a language with the aid of magic, they much prefer to learn languages in the context of their speakers so they can grasp the nuances hidden within the syntax and the magic within their symbols.
