Londra

[Soccercalle]

My PCs may soon visit the Old Wind Temple. I think that Londra of Londros retired there. I am thinking of having them meeting her. I dont need the stats and imagine that we may se a write-up in a future product (maybe the Sartar book/campaign). But I wonder if there is any official information about her personality. She is both an Humakti Sword and an Orlanth/Vinga Windlord which, IMHO, often have quite different personalities. I want her to be someone that "stands out of the crowd" som any information about her personality would be welcome.

There are RQ2 stats in one of the Wyrm's Footnotes. She has a short HQ2 write-up in the Old Wind description in Sartar Companion, but no "four weapons" diagram like the HQ1 NPCs.

She is a minuscule bundle of charisma who has consistently been able to talk her followers into idiotically bad situations.

and search here: https://wellofdaliath.chaosium.com/?s=londra

There is a boxed description of her in the Sartar Companion, page 76 in the Old Wind Temple chapter (6 pages):

Quote

Although Londra is a Sword of Humakt, she is not a devotee of the War God and does not serve Death single-mindedly. Londra is also an initiate of Orlanth (specifically as a member of the Vinga subcult) and now serves as a priest of Old Wind Temple.

Incase anyone is still looking for this information Londra's stats are in Wyrm's Footnotes #11.

She's likely the smallest of Rune Lords... you'd ever see, being smaller than a small trollkin?

Hresht made a thread which has all sorts of back story links in it if you are interested. She seems more or less retired in current game time...

As she's only 12 when those stats were written (born 1605, stats 1617), I expect she's still got some growing to do. The stats are RQ2, per the conversion to RQG SIZ 4 -> SIZ 8. In games where children have been involved, I assume that roughly age 0-6 is the first D6, 7-12 is the +6, and 13-18 the final D6 (your ideas may vary). So I'd let her player (Ken Kaufer), roll another D6 and spread the points over 13-18. (this came about in a game where one of the adventurers met his cousin after 6 years and jokingly said "my how you've grown").

Wasn't that birthdate noted as incorrect subsequently?

Thanks, just found it in issue 12, page 3, so she's 19, and has the minimum rolled SIZ in RQG.
