Martin Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 We know from the myth of the Second Dragonslaying; when Orlanth libereated Heler from Aroka, that Orlanth also took other things from Aroka's corspe...these included Aroka's sinews "Orlanth took other treasures from the corpse too. He took the sinews from the right side of its spine, which were red, and from the left, which were black." So does anyone have any ideas what these sinews do? Are they Movement Rune related or something else? Did Aroka originally steal the sinews from 2 other gods? Why are they different colours and how does that relate to their powers?

Joerg Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Left Clavandal and Right Clavandal is an EWF classification of the cities and lands of Dragon Pass, for the Dragonspine Ridge as separator. Left being black and right being red might tell us a bit about the Hero Wars? 1 Quote Telling how it is excessive verbis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eff Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 The Red Camp of Innocence was in the south. The right side of Aroka was towards the south. The Black Camp of Introspection was in the west. The left side of Aroka was towards the west. Aroka faced northeast, and was a boundary between two different worlds, coming from the southwest corner, between the animistic and formal realms. Holding those sinews might give you power over those realms, or the ability to move within them. Orlanth faced southwest, coming from the northeast, between the divine and mystic realms. The divine on his right, the mystic on his left. And Sh'hakar'zeel's head is held in his left hand. 4 1 3 Quote "And I am pretty tired of all this fuss about rfevealign that many worshippers of a minor goddess might be lesbians." -Greg Stafford, April 11, 2007 "I just read an article in The Economist by a guy who was riding around with the Sartar rebels, I mean Taliban," -Greg Stafford, January 7th, 2010 Eight Arms and the Mask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, what's the worst that could happen? 1 1 Quote Simon Phipp - Caldmore Chameleon - Wallowing in my elitism since 1982. Many Systems, One Family.

Manunancy Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I'd be wary of doing it with bits from a Chaos deity - though it's nothing a suitable dose of Illumination won't make OK. At least for the Iluminated. Unenlightned boors may differ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
