Harry's Blasting Rod

I always assume Norse runes when I thought of the staff/rod. However, Harry had prime opportunities to compare his runes to Norse runes when Gard uses her rune based magic and doesn't.

I wondered that once myself when I went looking for non-norse Runic sets/alphabets, but best I could find the term "rune" is (historically in RL) only used to refer to the europe and/or the germaic regions.  Even Runology is specifically a sub-section of Germanic Linguistics.  Meaning all Runes are technically Norse Runes.  There are plenty of fictional runic alphabets, but not many actual languages, and none outside Europe.  Of course I couldnt begin to explain a functional difference between runes and the other various alphabets and pictoforms of the world.

You guys seem pretty good at wood stuff. What do you with these creations once they’re complete?
