Rune Master

[The strongest magic swordsman with his own Rune sword technique]

Background

In-game Version
Nexon Version

The strongest magic swordsman who created a new Rune sword technique using the power of El.

After restoring the El, Elsword feels something different about how mana flowed in his body.

Instead of trying to contain his new found power, Elsword decides to unleash it.

With explosive mana coursing through his body and his sword, Elsword becomes capable of using skills that no other magic swordsman could attempt before.

According to Denif, the sanctum reflects one's "determination". Everyone's experience in the sanctum will be sightly different. But since the sanctum seems to be influenced by Henir, he will make something that will help with exploring the sanctum as long as he has the right ingredients.

Rune Master 5/5

{{

Quest Acceptance Prerequisites	Objectives
Complete Rune Master 4/5	Clear El Tower Defense 5 times 0/5
Description
When Elsword was released from the Giant El, Elsword had to try to keep his mana under control, less they go rampage. And when the mysterious voice asked him, "Are you afraid?" it's as if the voice understood what he was going through. Normally, he would have said no, to show a strong front, but he couldn't answer. After coming in contact with the El, his powers were not like before. If this power goes out of control... He was afraid he might harm the very friends who came to save him. But he couldn't just lie around and do nothing. He'll really be useless if he can't even control his own powers, when their enemies grow stronger by the day. It's time to make another decision. "You're doing great." That's what the voice said. It all made sense now. Elsword headed towards the sanctum. "He" was waiting for his answer at the heart of the sanctum.

Trivia

The runes used in Rune Master's portrait are written in Elder Futhark, the oldest form of runic alphabet.
- However, the writings seem to mean absolutely nothing.
Rune Master wears a short sleeve jacket that's very similar to the one depicted in Rune Slayer's concept art.
Although his promotional accessory is a headband, it is categorized as Top Piece instead of Face (Top).
In this path, Elsword relies more on his magical prowess rather than his innate-El resonance or any external El influence. Due to not having any interaction with El other than the Giant El, Rune Master' is the only path where Elsword's eyes don't change in color.
