How many generations is the family? 

Whatever this method of getting around the range problem is, add it to the profile. 

No bows from Yggdrasil wood, that's too high-tier. They can be enchanted to go for long distances/ignore outside influences, but it shouldn't be at the level of literal travel for days. If people could do that then brooms would be useless and Arash would be old and busted. 

Runes are fine, but since they're runes, I will ask that you provide a runic alphabet. Ergo, pick something like Elder Futhark or whichever he'll use, and give the effect each rune makes. Since he's experienced and runes are his thing, he'll be able to understand the true meaning of the rune.

Let me know if you have any questions or need help with the runes or anything.
