Runes of Caryll (Bloodborne Supplement)

Runes of Caryll

"Runes carved by Caryll, student of the Great Ones. These arcane symbols are transcriptions of eldritch utterings, inscribed into the mind of a hunter. Though simple in comparison to the Great Runes, these minor inscriptions carry power beyond mortal means, enhancing the body and mind of those who bear them."

"Each rune represents a fragment of forbidden knowledge, a whisper from the beyond. No two hunters bear the same markings, for the runes respond to the will, instinct, and purpose of their bearer. Those who seek them must listen—not with ears, but with blood."

"Yet, one must tread carefully. Even minor runes carry echoes of the abyss. Those who listen too deeply may find themselves unable to look away."
