Runemark

"In times past, this mark aroused great fear. It was given to those found wanting by the court of the Disir."

- Gaius to Arthur

Runemarks are magical coins created by the Disir and given to those found wanting by the Triple Goddess. Because they contain not only a man's guilt but the path that has been chosen for him, runemarks are considered to be both a judgment and a fate.

History
Arthur Pendragon was given a runemark by Osgar, a sorcerer and servant of the Disir. The coin represented the gods' judgement against him for persecuting the people of the Old Religion. It also represented one last chance for him to redeem himself and appease the gods before Camelot was destroyed (The Disir).

Creation
The Disir created the runemark by dipping their staffs into a pool of water while chanting a spell (The Disir):
 * "Heo cwæþ. Se wyrdes last biþ ansiene. Nu sind his folma blodige ond þa ne mæg he feormian. His endetima is on ofost. Heo cwæþ. Se wyrdes last biþ ansiene. Nu sind his folma blodige ond þa ne mæg he feormian. His endetima is on ofost."
