Renderra Family/Tome of Spiorad

''This book is currently missing, the knowledge within lost to the world. It's beyond ancient, likely only well preserved copies exist, locked far, far away in the depths and dungeons of Gielinor. The one place to even reference the existance of such a book is a tablet in the Renderra Stronghold, only recently opened once more.''

The Tome of Spiorad, by Calvaghn Arrenda is one of the oldest books written on advanced magic, written during the Second Age in secret. The book details secrets of summoning, attuning one's self to animals, and advanced combative techniques based off of the spirit.

Chapter One: The Spiorad
The Spiorad is within your being. Within your soul. It is the fiery passion, the calmness of water, the ever-chaning wind of happiness and stubborness of stone. Being able to draw from this power, this untapped art, will feel a drain. Not physically, nor mentally.

Your Spiorad is who you are, and upon learning to become true to oneself, one can use the power of the Spiorad.

But first, you must identify your Spiorad. What drives you to do what you do? That is when you focus, thinking over and over about that drive. Your goals and why you want them. The Spiorad will make itself known to you.

It always does, when you are ready.

Chapter Two: The Ainmhi
The Ainmhi is a spirit outside your body, tied to yours from an outer plane. We know as a fact that Summoning is possible of standard animals from other realms, but what of more complicated creatures? We find we can draw from our Spiorad, and from the Aethyric direction within, to bring the elements outside.

It will take your spiritual alignment, whether it be Earth, Wind, Fire or Water. Earth is also tied to Winter, Wind to Spring, Fire to Summer, and Water to Autumn. Either Elemental, or Seasonal Spirits can be conjured by mixing spiritual shards and power of the Elements within. Choosing your own Elemental or Seasonal spirit will bring it stronger, while choosing another variety may be weaker. Be sure to add an Aethyr Charm to each pouch.

Runes will work fine for the Elements, but the seasonal are more specific. I find, however, picking various stages of the Day's Eye Flower, or the Squ'irk tree's fruits to be more than sufficient.

The other form of Ainmhi is that of a dedicated Spirit follower. There is an animal naturally attuned to your soul, waiting to show itself. By looking into your soul, and carefully observing around you, others of that species may soon wish to join you as a companion. My companion is an Owl, a simple Barn Owl who shrieks and hisses at mice, staying late into the night as I write. My son has found his companion to be a fox, running about with him as he causes mischeif.

Chapter Three: The Phriomha Scraed
The Phriomha Scraed is raw energy releasing itself from your Spiorad. Deep within yourself, you must make your voice echo from within, forcing it from your lungs and through your throat.

While being done, it greatly increases the strength of the body and mind, while also increasing the anger of the user. It invokes the most primitive instincts of man through enlightenment.

The Phromha Scraed can be combined with magic to produce conal projection from the mouth with some spells, as well as cloaking the user in their favourite element. The raw power of such an attack is aweing, and if not used as an execution or overpowering move on a foe, can easily double as a decoy for the rest of your allies to beat the distracted enemy. I myself use the Phriomha with Earth, stones rising about my body before being hurled viciously.

I've made it a goal for my clan to learn the Scraed, for a tribe of screaming Arrenda is surely a sight to behold and fear.

Chapter Four: The Aethyric Charm
The true mystery of this higher summoning is the Aethyric Charm. The Charm is produced by one's one Spiorad reflecting into either a Gold Charm of the Winds, Blue of the Waters, Green of the Forests, or Red of the Flames. It 'must' tie into your Spiorad. Arrange five piles of five spiritual shards on a Pentacle Altar. This will be your binding form.

Begin to focus on your spirit. Gaze into the shards while closing your eyes... Slowly drawing your life-force into your finger tips. Lightly place them upon the charm, forcing your hands down as your spiritual power drains.

The charm should turn a grey hue, the Pentacle now present upon both sides in black, like any other charm.

Aethyric Charms can be used for Moss Giant pouches, Dryad pouches, or the two aformentioned Elemental types.

Crafting an Aethyric Charm will use a lot of your energy, so you may only craft two a day.

Chapter Five: The Aethyric Rune
The Aethyric Rune is similar to its charm-sister in a few ways, but is also different.

For one, it must be done with pure rune essence. Due to a very small supply of this stone, it will be hard to manage this. Secondly, unlike Aethyric charms which are bound to you alone until crafted into pouches, the runes can be given freely.

To craft an Aethyric rune must be done by placing your hands upon rune essence, set on an altar to Guthix. This altar must have a binding Pentacle upon it, with shards surrounding it, in similar five piles of five shards. The essence will draw from your spirit, a grey pentacle being set on the rune as its symbol.

The Aethyric Rune will split into five useable stones, but all of your spiritual energy will drain. You must rest and recharge it before more crafting can be done. Aethyric Runes can be used to hold the Spiritual Energy, allowing you to use more powerful Aethyric Spells, such as the Razor Wind, Archfyre, Brackish Water, or Tangling Earth spells. It can also be used for the Phriomha Scraed.
