The ancient practice of rune magic originated with giants. Skiltgravr (“rune cutters”) can be found among any type of giants, and you likely learned your methods first or second hand from such a mystical artisan. Whether you found the giant’s work carved into a hill or cave, learned of the runes from a traveling sage, or met the giant in person, you studied the giant’s craft. In time, you learned how to carve and apply runes to your equipment and how to invoke their magic, ultimately becoming a Rune Knight.
Feeling a deep connection to the world around them, some rangers reach out through their magical connection to nature and gather a host of fey spirits, which take the form of swarming beasts—be they buzzing insects, fluttering birds, slippery squids, or otherwise. The swarm becomes a potent force in battle, as well as helpful—if potentially disturbing—company for the ranger. Some Swarmkeepers are outcasts or hermits, keeping to themselves and their attendant swarms rather than dealing with the discomfort of others. Other Swarmkeepers enjoy building vibrant communities that work for the mutual benefit of all those they consider part of their swarm.
You’ve had a soul-shaking realization: you’ve been dead before, yet somehow you are alive again. This life isn’t your first; it might not even be your second. Your past life, or lives, are unclear to you, but you know that you passed through the gates of death. And the powers of death, or some other influence, wasn’t done with you. You might have convinced a deity to let you return to the Material Plane, perhaps you signed a deal with a fiend, or maybe you used an artifact that revived you. Whatever force brought you back, you now know the truth about yourself: that you are one of death’s representatives among the living.

Editing your Rune Knight (Runes) and Revived (skills etc)
Both the Rune Knight and The Revived have a mechanic where you can make a selection that impacts your character, but can later change that selection.
For the Rune Knight, when they level up, they can change the selection of which runes they know.
For The Revived, several of their features, such as "Tokens of Past Lives" and "Connect with the Dead" allow a more frequent selection, as they are usable again after a Long Rest.
To change your selection on either of these, you need to edit the character and make the change through the character builder (see below).
The rune knight snippet for the Haug rune in the character sheet ,under features doesn't mention the poison resistance Or advantage on poison saving throws.
My player is a Rogue with the Revived subclass. When they want to use the connect with dead feature, nothing shows up in their options drop down menu. He told me has only worked once before, but now there is no options.
I go to his character sheet and this is the case for me as well. It says to choose a level 9 option, and there are no options to choose from on the drop down menu.

WotC decided to abandon the Revived and replace it with the Phantom. That led DDB to Archive the Revived. It should still work for your player’s character because they chose the subclass before it was Archived, but that particular feature stopped working correctly after the Archive. Since the Revived has hit the wastebasket, I unfortunately doubt that DDB will put much effort into this bug.

Hi
The Stein (Stone Rune) for the Rune Knight is doubling or adding 60ft to my Half-Orc's Darkvision rather than 30ft.

I was not aware, I may have my player just become "the Phantom" instead. I never understood what it meant saying "archived" next to the class name.
Well, this thread got a tag, so someone must be paying attention. Good luck.
