She's treated as one of the Grain Goddesses of Dragon Pass (generic runes: Plant, Earth, Fertility), and is mentioned in miscellaneous notes (not the subcults section) of the latest Ernalda writeup I saw. No specific Runes are specified; I'd be kinda surprised if one of the biggest mountains in the world didn't have an association with the Stasis Rune, myself. 1 Quote Community Ambassador - Jonstown Compendium, Chaosium, Inc.

She's a daughter of Larnste, which might mitigate your argument for having Stasis. Quote Telling how it is excessive verbis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Hello, I have been looking into this. My view on this would be. Runes. Plant, life, earth Spells. Know lineage, command minor gnome, regrow limb, bless crops, charisma Orlanth. Shield Yinkin. Cateyes Lodril. Earthwarm Himile? Inora? Velhara? Quivin? Aram. Command tusk. Initiates. 5% time, 1% earnings. Only one great temple. The mountain itself. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo Bagman Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 (edited) Some old publications have informations about her (Runes Earth, Mastery, and a personal rune), but they are probably outdated. https://wellofdaliath.chaosium.com/home/gloranthan-documents/prosopaedia/deities/k/kero-fin/ In RuneQuest Glorantha she is a land goddess like the others (Dragon Pass is Kerofinela) but lacks a specific plant with Emmer as special grain. https://wellofdaliath.chaosium.com/home/gloranthan-documents/prosopaedia/deities/g/grain-goddesses/ The first Feathered Horse Queen proved to be the incarnation of Sorana Tor and the avatar of Kero Fin itself, and I think the same is true for the following Feathered Horse Queens.

Jose Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I supose that Quivin is an associate God with kero fin. I am going to give him earth and life as a son of Lodril too. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QUIVIN The son of Kero Fin and Lodril, the mountain god Quivin is the half-brother of Orlanth, Yinkin, and Inora, and is associated with all of those cults. He may be contacted by climbing atop the peaks of the Quivin Mountains. Quivin is associated with the Runes of Earth and Stasis. He is sometimes associated with the Cold Rune as well. He provides the special Rune spells of Mountain Leap and Snow. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God knows why she is seen as a Grain Goddess! Her grain is Kers' or Fins'? Or perhaps Aurochs, they are a type of grain, right? Right?

Jose Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 I am quite surprised that proper Quivin spells use Stasis rune instead of Earth I find surprising that a mountain God has not earth spells. But I am fine with that. One of my players want to be a Quivin initiate, can you believe it? A sartarite with a 75 stasis rune 🤣🤣🤣!!!. Well... There are worst things😅. So we go for it!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mountains are heavily associated with Stasis, which is why Acos and Mostal were so heavily tied to the spike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 I have been reading some texts about quivin and I have the following question. Is the White Raven the equivalent to Odin's ravens? It seems to me that his job is the same. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Scott Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 It's spirit cult that teaches Sky Sight and Farsee.
