only if it's that 7' tall naked lady that swam ashore in Prax's malarial swamp outpost, only to leave in disgust because there was literally nothing of value not because she's nude, but because she's giant, covered in mud, and annoyed. make her scarred, filthy from the swim, and have amazonian muscles.

i too prefer outcome, but I'd like a hair more crunch than HQ, so I'm ruminating over what to use!

I don't usually doublepost but by "feat" I mean choosing a speciality like archery > mounted archery.

I FOUGHT WE WON is a pretty rough heroquest if you're really heroquesting and not just doing it as a glorified ritual masquerade to remember it happened. I'd also say give them a bonus which improves when they act in concert! That sting gave her the strength to resist foul poisons and toxins and disease, the tools of Chaos, but when she works with other Heroes, she also gets a strong heart! Is there a way to use feats with passions? (Sorry, I'm still really bad at the RQG rules, as I'm sure is evident.) I know you can use feats with skills; could you attach a feat as a reward to a Passion that is bravery against Chaos? "Unity Brings Strength" gives you a nice fat bonus. Maybe it's a hack but hey, it's a heroquest reward, that's what those things are for.

Nyalda is Ernalda, yes. Nocheli counts because cochineal is used for extremely superior textile production.

Oh! Repellent to other Praxian tribes. Not because it sends the spirit anywhere but because they are cannibals. Can you actually imagine how horrible it is to have some bandit singing the prey-butchery song reverently and sincerely as he comes after you, bound in the food tent?

omg please give the newtling stolen dwarven firearms and all three really large straw hats

Bloody Cut specifically works on people; it's one of the reasons you use it, because it lets you use their POW and magic points to cast spells! Imagine what you can do with someone else's POW... Also the Cannibals use the Peaceful Cut on people, it's just... repellent. It butchers the food properly, though, so nobody gets ill, and no one seems to die from punishment, so

Babeester Gor, like Sekhmet, was only subdued from murdering all life by tricking her with beer dyed the color of blood. I don't know if she's a patron of beer or not.

I'd be willing to bet they have distinct troupes. We do know they are Darsenian-inspired at origin, the mystical counterbalance to the Dara Happan physical military. Yes, the soldiers are many genders, but they are female-identified. The Sister's Army represents the Great Mother. This sounds like Carnival. I know it's famous for its nubile women in the press, but people in real women-lead societies are honestly not impressed with tits and ass; see attached Minangkabau women.

that's where the footsoldier of the all-female-identified Sister's Army goes! Forbidden from drawing blood with their decorated ceremonial weapons, they are called the "flower warriors" - but they are siegebreakers, army-killers, and a terrifying foe. There are nonhumans in the ranks, too. Time to play crazy dress-up: perfectly well-armored, they carry only parasols (helps with the arrows) and magical implements.

38–261 million km (24–162 million mi) means flying between 1,3 and 9 million meters per second. So, uh, buckle the heck up.

ha! i think maybe he lacks understanding of the source material, as with the Wiener Kaffee in this Japanese café

now there's a name! love it. this I did not know! so Ernalda punished them with their patron ancestor spirit, basically?

Well, Ralians are funny because they are fully a quarter of all Orlanthis anywhere and Alakoring was one, but they never get mentioned. But their stories are not the stories of Kerofinela: Ehilm (Yelm), Galanin or Galana the Sun Horse (son of Ernalda and Yelm!), Erulat (Orlanth) and Mata the Green Lady (Ernalda), Aldrya and Flamal, Uleria and Korat, and Humakt Sun-Killer. Lesser deities abound, including snake gods and the hsunchen gods and so forth. Humakt killed Yelm in their narratives, not Orlanth, who just ordered it. They seem to be a melding of what Orlanthis and what Six Ages calls Riders, with varying narratives of their ancestry to the first man, who seems to be Vingkot, and to the Sun Horse. Ooh good point. Yeah, the Entruli are Orlanthi but not Vingkotlings! Definite Theyalan converts. I would bet good money the Orlanthi in the South originally surprise-transplanted by the Waertagi are Theyalan groups, perhaps ambassadorial. This is the kind of nonsense I get up to when I play Civ so I definitely believe it. "We will bring you to the best opportunity! Gather your clans, ambassadors!"

he didn't replicate anything else - he turned art bodies into his own realistic thing, so i think it's his own issue

Are the Ralian Orlanthi non-Vingkotling peoples? I've heard suggest they're a meld of Orlanthis and Horse Riders who were Theyalanised - which makes sense given they worship Yelm and the Sun Horse as coequal deities right up there with Ernalda and Orlanth - which would make them also Vingkotling.

He's got some uh lack of familiarity with the female form though.

That's a "King Lion". He's holding a symbolic lightning bolt (vajra) that, in this piece, has been made into a realistic-looking paired weapon. He's a symbol of sovereignty in parts of Southeast Asia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gajasimha

i think they say as @Sheliak notes that Vingkot is their ancestor (I played a little last night). I'm always fuzzy on who isn't a Vingkotling.

Are these Rams even Vingkotlings? This is Ice Age Vanch.

i don't know how this started but have you guys played untitled goose game yet? seems thematically appropriate https://goose.game/

from that expression, it may be coming out of his butt

Joerg I left the room and it is STILL LOOKING AT ME
