I was wondering, does anyone have some closeups of the runes on each of the different chain blades' runestones?

All I've got atm are the Cardinal and the Cutthroat, but I'd like to see the runes on the other 2, the Stinger and the Celtic Howling.

Can anyone provide close-ups of the other two chain blades' runestones?

    oh, I didn't think to look to closely at the runestones for some reason. Have a book or two on it. Cutthroat's looks like Mannaz which, as far as I know is representative of all of mankind, unity, and beginnings. Cardinal looks like a form of Othila, which represents inheritance, ownership, and separation. It's not quite right. The top should be pointed, not flat. I guess it would make sense to change it. I think it was used as a symbol by the NSDAP and the White-Liberation movement.

    True, but does that keep many game developers from avoiding it? Not that I'm saying they should, but I wouldn't be surprised if they changed it on purpose for that reason.

    it's a little smaller than the others but stinger's seems to be Jera: one cycle/year, patients and the rewards of a long harvest. You could say it's "commitment and benefits born from commitment".

    Quite interesting.

    Though, I couldn't say these runes quite represent the weapons' performance. :V

    The Witcher, the game has similar runes to the ones here, but they don't explain their origin. I wanted to know if the rune on the Cardinal Chain Blade is Othila or odal; in theirs it is upside down.
    Odal also looks like the gate character in Kanji 門

    othila and odal are different names for the same rune. Since it's an actual writting system, it changes a little by location and time in terms of how it's written and pronunciation. Like, for example, it doesn't look like they used the elder Futhark, the oldest form of runes, but mostly the Anglo-Saxon version instead.

    the celtic one is Gebo: gifts(or exchange), balance, and partnerships.

    Cardinal Rune: Othila /Odal Rune Possibly Link - Closest Rune in appearance.
    Cutthroat Rune: Mannaz Rune Link
    Stinger: Jeran Rune Link
    Howling Celtic Rune: Gar / Gyfu Rune Link
