The Patriarchy takes concubines for granted, the Lunar establishment supports equality but also probably polygamy and polyandry. Makes me wonder if the New Pelorian for second wife and second husband may not be based in the Dara Happan for concubine, so they can believe they understand each other... My Arabian Nights analogy for the Lunars surely means the "happy ending" of many folk tales will be when the protagonist realises she can marry all three of the handsome princes / warriors / chieftains (or whoever) she's been adventuring with: the marvellous revelation of the Lunar Way means that she doesn't have to choose between them.

Everyone wins! Tell that to the 3 handsome princes. Sounds like they just wed an opportunistic narcissist chaos horror to me.😜 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Brooke Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I understand how some knuckle-dragging slaves of the patriarchy might mistake a socially, sexually and intellectually liberated woman for a "chaos horror." Clearly, there is much work yet to be done... 2 Quote Community Ambassador - Jonstown Compendium, Chaosium, Inc.

Clearly, there is much work yet to be done... Nothing to do with gender. All lunars are chaos horrors. They chose their side when they accepted a chaotic deity.
