The Mother Earth Rune (大地の紋章, Daichi no Monshō) is a rune which appears in many games in the Suikoden series.

Information

The Mother Earth Rune is one of the runes of the five elements. Its lower order variant is the Earth Rune. This rune allows its bearer to manipulate a mixture of both attack and support magic.

Embedding this rune to a weapon could increase the weapon wielder's defensive strength and even allow them to heal wounds naturally in the middle of battle.
