  1. Some very good sculpting there! Amazing skill. But disappointingly Euro-centric from only the last couple of thousand years 😞
  2. Would an Ernaldan priestess target an Ernaldan priestess? (Or an initiate target a priestess) What happened during the Battle of the Queens? So, I think Ernaldans aren't as sacrosanct as has been suggested, but CAs definitely are by most human cultures (who are aware of them).
  3. So we can expect Trolls to have a good bit of Air to go with their Darkness?
  4. I think that's the plot to lots of movies... Especially if there's a celibacy taboo. However, I still want to know how a Great Spirit would know a taboo has been broken... (although, that's often also part of a number of movies, usually murder mysteries :p)
  5. In this regard, I'd see the "taboo" as a form of continued payment, rather than an actual "taboo" as non-chaotic would see it, and they'd be quite aligned. (Just a thought, perhaps shamans should automatically have an Honour passion? How likely are they to break the taboo in a stressful situation???) Do you consider having to worship and donate MPs on holy days as a "taboo"?
  6. I presume you're referring only to Yelm as practiced in the Grazelands )as described in the book) here...??? Aldrya and Kygor Litor have no problems mixing Rune and Shamans, so I can see a part of the world where Yelmites can also mix them.
  7. That should make the GaGoG 5000 pounds.😄
  8. Firstly, I just took that list as a very short list of suggestions. Coming up with your own makes far more sense. As for Chaotic shamans... Would they actually follow a taboo? Wouldn't that almost be anti-thetical to their existence? And what sort of Chaos spirit would tell a broo it couldn't procreate??? You'll never undo all the universe if you keep following all the(ir) rules!
  9. For Dragonewts, instead of "family history", it could be "previous lives".
  10. And they have a very dark history.... 😄
  11. ??? How did Strength add +2D6??? I can understand it adding another 1D6 if you've already got high STR/SIZ.
  12. D'oh! You're right (obviously). TBH, I notice the numbers rather than the skills they were put to.
  13. Mythras/RQ6 is basically right. And to add to it, DriveThru have a free (OMGs, yes FREE!!!) download from Zozer Game Design, a RQ6/Mythras supplement called Warlords of Alexander - very specifically the post-Alexandrian break-up of the empire. It's light on pictures though. And has a lot of Greek terminology - including weapon names. And how to appease your gods with libations... And prices in the drachmae and obols... While it does list the gods and relates some skills etc to them, it doesn't do much for the magical side of things. However, there's a "pre-" version that you could hunt around the net for, called Diadochi Warlords, that does have magic (and potions, and making magical items). Again, no pretty pics. But, that's what the internet is for!
  14. So, I could see a CA around the Upland Marsh, going along with the Hueymakti. Could a CA have a spirit that could cast the prohibited spells on them, for the purposes of fighting undead?
  15. I noticed a couple of non-root 5 numbers (which, 44). So I thought maybe there's a couple of experience rolls in there??
  16. You've been hanging out on the God's plane too long. (Or playing D&D)
  17. I like it. Still not sure about the feeling... Oooh, I just had a thought. If your munc... Votive statue is damaged to the point of being inoperative, roll Worship to see if you notice. (Make that damn skill do something!!!)
  18. Yeah, but it came up in relation to enemy cults. So, hack and bash away.
  19. I don't think you'd be aware of it, unless some serious magic (POW) was devoted to it. (Is POW required to make a munch... votive statue?
  20. Your Aendel is somewhat similar as my ideal character - Noble Lhankor Mhy with a Notchet background, but strong ties to Orlanthi through the mother (I was thinking Enhlyi tribe - just for the Sun boost :p). Sorcery is important, but also +25 to weapon skills.
  21. Are there any areas where the Sun (Yelm, ostensibly) is a goddess? And thus, all the gender roles reversed.
  22. firstly, if they were filthy, then it would indicate their higher connection to Earth. Secondly, since there are many Illuminates in the urban populations of the Lunar Empire, that many (the majority?) bathe regularly, so at least up north there, filthy illuminates will be few and far between. Given the cosmopolitan urbanised atmosphere of Notchet, I'd say the same for there as well. So not many filthy Illuminates joining Maran Gor...
  23. If you've got RQ3, you could look at converting Pamalt to RQ:G - your player might then be even happier with an Agrimori warrior
  24. What's the condition? Every time you take damage? Personally, I'd leave that to a spirit, and voice command. And a larger Heal. (would anyone allow a condition that would include HPs? After all, it's not really a Gloranthan value - but a game construct)
