YOU GUYS LAST PAGE there were over 60 comments. AHHH! I don't know how that happened but I do know that you guys are beyond awesome! Even if every other page only gets two comments from now on THAT'S FINE because knowing you are all enjoying this so much to talk about it so much just gave me warm fuzzies all week and I wanted to thank all of you. ;u; Also thank you to everyone who is reading and enjoying but has never commented ever! You're also really cool for taking the time to read about my silly magic people and I'm so glad you're enjoying it. BASICALLY THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO READS THIS COMIC you all make my day every day! :"D <3
Vote for Runewriters and get an extra doodle! :"D This one illustrates some, uh, reader theories from last page.
Oh! And unrelated, if you're on DeviantArt but you don't follow Runewriters there, I wanted to let you know there's a "favourite character" poll over there because I have no patience and got curious! C: (And if you're not on DeviantArt you can just go creep on other people's answers c:).
Vote Incentive for This Comic.
From what I've gathered, it hasn't been said what makes certain things magical and other things not magical. Though, I'm now wondering if a runewriter's magickiness continues to linger after their death.
Yes, his earrings are magical and their main purpose is for runes, from what I've grapsed. I forget what runes he originally had on them, but I vaguely recall he had runes on them at the start of the webcomic.
I think the point is that he can't just change the colour of his skin into runes on his own. He needs to do simple runes on other objects to alter his own body with stripes and spots or whatever, which he then uses to make more complex runes. That's the impression I got, anyway.

I once asked Shazz in the comments and if I recall correctly, she said some things are just magical in nature. And the first couple of pages (if not the very first page) it is stated that runes can only be cast off magical things. Thus (if this rule is correct) everything that runes are cast off are magical - whatever that may imply.

Though I wonder if it's enough to just carve some runes onto a magic surface and then it's done and after being cast you can just -apparently- reuse the "mojo" [in lack of a better word]?

Carving runes into his earrings with his bone tail. Good idea. Great way to pass the time. Probably less tiring than changing the color of his skin into runes, but I thought they only worked if carved into something magical. Why does he have magic earrings? Does he normally put runes there?
While we are on the subject, what makes a good rune substrate? Bones? Minerals? Some man/magic made composite?
