Wyrmghost Ruins

Ruined villa deep in the Dogbone Hills

(E3)

Source: Jonstown Compendium.

This well-preserved ruins remains from the EWF era. The Provincial Overseer has sponsored several expeditions to dig at the site, but the dragon-headed ghosts stalking the grounds drive the investigators away each time. Telmori haunt the forests around it, but both they and the Torkani avoid the site.

Ahhh, banana boats...

Glad to be of service. 
I have all the physical books, but it’s faster searching the PDFs. 😉

They accepted luxurious gifts and Lunar wives, who entered the cults of their land and taught some Lunar magic to a few of their women. In this way, Jarst and Garsting were married into the Empire by the end of the Wane.

Gonn Orta's castle is in a pass between some of the Eleven Big Giant Mountains in the Rockwood Mountains between the Elder Wilds and the Wastes according to Griffin Mountain p.175

In the Glorantha Sourcebook, see the map on p.144, look for the mountains between the green Elder and the orange Praxians east of the grey Dagori Inkarth.

If you download the free Argan Argar Atlas it's map 20 and shows Gonn Orta's Pass between Skik and Tarnk.

Glorantha Sourcebook p.76 explains her parents, children, and some worship, including “She is also called the Mother of Death, for that Rune was made or found within her cavernous being before it was brought into the Surface World.”

My 13th Age Glorantha campaign includes an Uzko Monk of Sky River Titan from the temple at Crabtown.

Is it true that the Praxian name for Pent Ridge prison is Rura Penthe?

I doubt it. I’ve always understood it to refer to the prison in Melbourne, Victoria. 
Pentridge

Sun County is full of Australian references. 😉

Recently on RPGnet I used the captioned version of the HeroQuest: Glorantha cover in the Glorantha Sourcebook to explain what's happening in the picture to a Glorantha newcomer. 

I look forward to complex images like this receiving explanatory captions & keys in later publications.

😉

The RQG Bestiary groups them with all the Praxian Riding Animals on pp. 153 so I expect the Ostrich Tribe to have the same cultural & religious affiliations as the other Praxian tribes, like the Morokanth and the Bison Tribe. 

IIRC the 3rd tribe of the Two Legged Alliance were Loper riders  (RQG Bestiary pp. 150).

Birds tend to be Fire/Sky rune creatures, but they don't stay that way. So I'd say the Ostrich has Beast above Fire/Sky since they lost the Waha gambling contest. If you quest back, you might encounter Ostrich as a Fire/Sky creature in Genert's Garden. Like the Augner of Rinliddi (Anaxial's Roster p.22). 

There's a fair amount published, but not collected on the Well of Daliath, for example. 

I’ve never used the Roll20 AV. My games are intercontinental, so I started with Google Hangouts and switched to Discord.

The Bride of Abhoth

IIRC I played that at a MacquarieCon. 

None. I played RQ2 RAW, RQ3 RAW, and now I’m playing RQG RAW. 

I would like Blood Brothers 1 & 2 also. Not least because 2 of my friends wrote scenarios in those books. 😉

No, I’m just going to upload it here as I did for The Hollow.

But, we really need some source material on his opponents, the Lunars.

What do they have that flies?  There is all of one Lunar Cult written up in RQG, and Seven Mothers is the "nice", proselytizing branch.  It's challenging to make a wide variety of good enemies out of them. 

Looks at Strangers in Prax on his shelf and laughs. 😉

They have wyverns trained to bridle and saddle. They have moonboats. They have Blue Moon assassins on giant moths. I suspect they could get worshippers of the Dara Happan Death god on giant bats with some effort (which would horrify the Dara Happans, I suspect). 

There are Lunar opponents in reasonable amounts in the 13th Age Glorantha book that you can use to inspire RuneQuest Glorantha rebuilds.

Jonstown Compendium?

No, it's from the RQ:G Gamemasters Screen adventure book. I convert RQ:G adventures from the Jonstown Compendium too, e.g., the Vinga's Ford adventure.

I just ran The Dragon of Thunder Hills converted from RQ:G to 13G for my 3rd level campaign. I’ll upload it shortly, after I tidy it a little. 

If he was Blue, Belintar would look even more like a Bondi Rescue lifeguard. 

I’ve run a heroquest to Wonderhome in my 13th Age Glorantha campaign because my players returned the 3 troll ghosts from Vinga's Ford to the Mothers at the Castle of Lead. 
I used the Elemental Cycle to decide what each stage would be: Darkness (Castle of Lead montage), Earth (dancing Maran challenge), Air (questing Orlanthi fight), Water (chaos infested river challenge), Fire/Sky (questing Dara Happan fight).

The nearest to this would be the clans clustered around small settlements. Runegate is probably the easiest example to find in the adventures book. With the Enhyli, Lonisi, and Narri clans. Apple Lane is a smaller example with the Hiording and Varmandi (thane appointed by the Queen).

Taraling. 😉

The Lonisi were destroyed, triggering the Taral War. 
Why, yes, the Narri were the centre of my last 2 HeroQuest games. 

Yes, there’s encounter tables in the RuneQuest Classic products and in the current RuneQuest: Glorantha product The Smoking Ruin & Other Stories.

I'd love to get a copy of Eleven Lights -- but not at eBay prices?

My FLGS, Games Paradise in Sydney Australia, has both The Coming Storm and The Eleven Lights on the shelf in hardback. One of each as of this morning 2021-06-15 Sydney time.
