Lunar Cities II
One thing that should be clearer from my notes on Furthest as well as the Guide to Glamour is how little most Lunar cities resemble the First Age settlements of GRoY. Most…
Lunar Cities I
I salute the so-far unknown Hippodamus who aided Hon-eel in developing the standardised grid plan for Lunar cities founded or rebuilt in the Fifth Wane. Each city was laid out on a…
RuneQuest NPCs
When starting up opponents in RQ, most of the stats generally don’t matter that much except the following: So example -Borgo the Dark Troll Bam! That took about 30 seconds to jot…
Pelorian Earth Cults
One thing that writing the Cults Book has really hammered into me is how much fear the traditional rulers of Peloria (aka the Yelm cult) have for Lodril as Monster Man. But…
Jerry Cornelius in Glamour
Some might view Glamour as being inhabited by investigators like Griselda. Me, I think the proper vibe for a Glamour investigator is J. Cornelius. With adventures like “J. Cornelius and the Madness…
Sartar Map Update I
BTW, this is only about 20% of the map we are putting together right now. Not every village is going to get named. The intent is to give folk freedom to have…
Comparative Timeline
From time to time, I find this old chart of mine useful for getting perspective on the passage of Time in Glorantha: I then compare this to a Greek at the time…

Cults Book WIP Art
A little work in progress from the Cults Book. It is a human picture. Part of a series from the City of Wonders, if I recall.
RuneQuest
The current edition of RuneQuest has now been out since 2018. I’m going to just start calling it RQ from now on and not RQG. I think it has earned that.
Light in the Sky
Pretty much every Gloranthan spiritual tradition says that the bright and hot Sun was killed by the Storm God, ending the Golden Age. The Orlanthi particularly emphasise this myth, as it was…
Ernalda preview art
This series of images from Loïc Muzy is particularly wonderful because it shows how he put that amazing Ernalda piece together (with a little input from me) Note that these versions are…
Magical Roads
The Mountain Peaks From each Mountain Peak, a heroquester can leap from one mountain to the next or the previous. From any mountain, one can also leap to Kero Fin. From specific…
Kallyr Starbrow
Here are some of my notes on Kallyr Starbrow for the Homeland Book: Dark Season 1625, Kallyr is acclaimed Prince. In some areas she has a lot of support, in others, not…
RQG Combat
In the duel between Achilles and Hector in the Iliad, Achilles throws his spear… and misses. Hector throws his spear … and misses. Achilles realises he threw away his best weapon and…
Hate (Lunar Empire)
It is worth contemplating that Hate (Lunar Empire) is not one of Orlanth’s Passions. But Honor is valued over all other passions by Orlanth – even Devotion, Love, and Loyalty. Most Orlanthi…
