  1. You want more than one of Orlanth's special spells [the one he gives to Odayla], you will need to initiate into Orlanth [same for Ernalda], and pay the tithes. You only get the spells Odayla description says they get otherwise.
  2. No. Just. No. Too much Mind Bleach required. 😁😉
  3. He's not a black sheep that's for sure!
  4. I think it is the flexibility that is the key. Few Spirit magic spells aid in non combat situations this can. You are right, too much too little is a problem, and how many Passions Elements can you use a day/time period? Some limit needs setting.
  5. My own personal idea is having a bonus = passion or rune whatever/5 useable once a day/week?, split among any skills the player likes during one scene. Rolls are made if the DM calls for them or the player does. The DM ones having much more impact than the player ones.
  6. Does anyone have any house rules they use for the bonuses give for these two? The swings are potentially very large and I was wondering if anyone used them more moderately? Thanks for your time.
  7. Ok, a while ago there was content at/on Virtual Con for Runequest, but now there is none, it's not that it is full as far as I can see, was there some problem that I missed in an announcement? I didn't get any real response on the RQ forum so thought this might be more suitable. It seems a bit weird that something as big as this [GC=, has no RQ, which has had at least a fair representation at the last few. Has Cthulhu [the monster], been coming at things from a different angle, brooking no opposition in its bid for world domination? I was looking forward to doing some online stuff. :(
  8. Are you thinking of Gen Con, rather than Gen Con Online? Could you screenshot, please?
  9. I can't think of anyone worse, except Hurrek, taking over. Like putting a small handed, bequiffed, narcissistic billionaire in charge of the White House...
  10. Can we just not use 'they' all the time, when talking about 'them'? It makes life a lot easier.
  11. I noticed this a little while back and I thought it must be a glitch as I saw some initially before sign up was possible. No RQ at all at Gen Con online?
  12. Someone needs to sneak into his tent when he's having a shower, steal that rug of his! It's all very well talking in boardgame terms, that doesn't translate well to an RPG. Re Androgeus. I wasn't suggesting that having a second SH was unbalanced in of itself. Position on board, recruit cost et al, would be a factor.
  13. What is the difference? He does effectively end a world, which is Soops kind of material.
  14. It's a pretty narrow range by that criteria, and one hopes was modified by game balance?
  15. Is that a step up or a sidestep? I understand the OOO not being one, but doesn't Belintar's actions get him there?
  16. HeroQuesting is different, it's not a place, but a rule system. I doubt they will ever go back to Dorastor, they've shown absolutely no inclination so far, but if they did, you could always submit a manuscript. 🙂 What is more likely [but still unlikely] is people covering stuff that Chaosium is going to/has already covered. Stuff like the timeline of the Hero Wars.
  17. I'm sorry, You are right. There Have been no long form for this edition, but Chaosium say [and pretty much everybody agrees] that the New edition was, by design, close enough so that the Old RQ2 and 3 cults needed little to no tweaking to be fully compatible with RQ:G All you need do is to go to the Chaosium site and have a look at the products there. Almost all of the long form cults that have been produced By C over the years are available there. In PDF if nothing else. And a great collection it is. Orlanth and his associate cults [just the spells they give him] provide everything you could ever want from a god, really, any of the blind spots could be filled in with skills. You can play a bookish Orlanth, a berserking Orlanthi, a thievish Orlanth, a charming Orlanthi, a steadfast Warrior Orlanth [in fact one character could play them all, in turn if they wanted, he's that bloody versatile] pick a character type he can do it. Disrespectful to who? I'm sorry I said 'You' when I meant 'One', but I'm wondering why you got so annoyed about me insulting a made up god? I was pointing out his all round singing and dancing ability, not the dirtiness/or not of your bum. With Cults of Prax, which doesn't just deal with Prax incidentally, you have a bucket load of Long Form, for what? $12.95. The cults book is going to set you back probably $200+postage and is seasons away. So, y'know.
