The Look of Second Age Westerners

Submitted by fiddler on Sun, 01/07/2012 – 22:26

Hi everyone,
I am really enjoying the Look of Glorantha blog Moon Design is doing for the lead up to the Big Glorantha guide.
While waiting for RQ6 I am reading the Abiding Book for MRQ2.
Does a second age westerner look different from a third age westerner?
Is it only a matter of worldview that was changed by the disasters between the second and third age or did it also set them on a new path of cultural development?
Thanks

I fear the Mongoose artistic accuracy was almost always very bad (Dara Happa Stirs is a notable exception) and Greg and I really have no idea how they depicted Second Age Westerners. However, this article does give correct information as to the look of the Second Age Jrusteli:

Thanks for the link.
Looking forward to the Glorantha Guide.

I would like to thank Moon Design for helping bring out the new edition of  Runequest.  My gaming style is for medium crunch rules so I never paid much attention to Heroquest until Loz said that Design Mechanism will be doing RQ character packs for your games sometime in the future.  I bought Sartar:Kingdom of Heroes, Sartar Companion, Pavis, and even Heroquest and was very impressed.
Looking forward to many years of Hero and RuneQuesting with you.
