  1. You mean Jeff can be Jeffed too.... weird man. I need some more hazia....
  2. Jeff posted in 2019 A few notes on the Torkani: Argan Argar is the tribal patron god. He is worshiped as a consort of Ernalda, as is Orlanth. Humakt is the most important war god, although Storm Bull is also popular. All the Lightbringers are worshiped. Their Rex cult is unique - as the tribal leaders need to worship Argan Argar in conjunction with Orlanth Rex. So I think the answer is "Your Rex cult for the Torkani May Vary"
  3. We're gonna need a bigger river.....🙃
  4. For me the joy of Greg's mythologising is that he would happily incorporate (almost?) anything into his thinking. Don't impose a boundary - leap it!
  5. To Lord Blackadder "You have a woman's bottom, my Lord"
  6. Pocharngo, give us the insight to warp the one to the other
  7. I'm sorry, but I can't shake the image of Furthest cramped with trailers🙃
  8. While I am sure it is a typo, I find the title of this thread wonderfully judgemental...🤣
  9. Ah, but back in the good old days, it was, my friend, it was.....
  10. Unfortunately, as with so many works of fantasy literature, the lack of attention to demographics destroys it as a setting for serious campaign gaming. That is why I suggested it as an 'otherworld' or 'heroquest' setting from the RW.
  11. Are you saying that Orlanth is a Complete Anker with a silent W? I am appalled!
  12. Isn't it interesting to watch games development?
  13. I was very surprised at the time - and totally strapped for cash, so it wasn't good to hear, either! At the same meet (in London, UK) he suggested an interim approach to HeroQuesting involving dividing all skills over 100% by 10, and ignoring those below, with Rune Magic functioning as Battle/Spirit Magic, and those magics removed. Oddly enough, it kinda worked for a while....
  14. I talked to Greg about the change over from 2 to 3, immediately prior to the publication of the seminal Gods of Glorantha for 3. He told me that while GoG could easily be incorporated into 2 (with a bit of care and attention) 3 was far closer to his personal vision of Glorantha.
  15. Personally, I think clues are orange skin, disproportionate hands, money troubles and a tendency to wear baseball caps... I say this from the (comparative) safety of the UK, of course. We have pig molesters, rejoice!
