if any of you are ever wondering what engineering students are like, one time i found a fire escape exit sign for sale at a garage sale and gave it to my engineering friend and not a single person will believe her that it's a birthday gift because engineers are notorious sign thieves, among many, many other baffling things

Runic - Tribe Infosheet

Runic - Tribe Infosheet

So I started making information sheets about the various Tribes in my world setting back in January - I wanted to get them all done before starting to show them but that didn't happen. So I'll be posting what I've done so far in the hope it'll motivate me to continue these, or failing that, at least these'll be here for you to check out! Anyhow, introducing The Runic Tribe! They're just nice. It's good to just have a nice Tribe with very little bad stuff going on, they just want to create, build, fix, help and generally share affection (though have a hard time being good to themselves) - all sounds a bit too familiar... I tend to have a lot more info then attempt to condense it to fit these, a fool's folly, so I'll also include unorganised info that may or may not be covered above just in case: Character Qualities

Usually alert to surroundings but easily distracted by current mechanical problems or appreciating something they find interesting

Usually busy but don’t mind visitors and can usually find some time to help them out with something

Very benevolent, compassionate when it’s something they can help, but if it’s something they can’t do anything about they tend to become indifferent

Boldness and cautiousness vs fearfulness and rashness vary

Content to be able to work on things, they get edgy if they have nothing to do and will often take it upon themselves to start “improving” the place they’re in if left to their own devices without distract for very long

Dependable, diligent and very determined

Quite short-sighted when it comes to anything non-technical

High endurance

Very enthusiastic about working, faithful that they’ll get it working

Flexible, forging, generous, gentle and honourable

Enjoy company and letting others stay with them if needed but may get burnt out with too much socializing

All try to be humble but some do become a bit arrogant from their achievements

Can fall into self-pity if not properly balancing their lives

Being so large, Runic are naturally quite meek and find it hard to resist orders

Very organized, sometimes to the point of compulsiveness – one’s organization may be a very specific type of messiness though

High patience with work but can get restless very easily if away from it

Persuasive when they know what they’re talking about

Somewhat unreliable when it comes to social meetings as they tend to overwork and sleep in or forget about anything other than what they’re doing

Responsible – if something they made or did caused a problem, they will endeavour to fix it

Find security in life in the know-how they have, which can’t be taken away

Small tendency to be self-indulgent from stress

All strive to be thorough but if they’re taken by inspiration they may cut corners and simply forget to correct them

Very sincere and tolerant

Thrifty – Runic know what’s needed to make what they’re making, they only go beyond what’s needed if it’s requested

Why do engineers and architects make the worse presentations?

Like you are supposed to be creative but naw you use basic ass slides and don't even bother with what you are putting on them.

If you can't spell or make sure your grammar is correct, try to make the slides look nice.
