Snugz Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Hello, What do we know about Vakalta other than basics like: https://glorantha.fandom.com/wiki/Pit_of_Vakalta? (and Prosopaedia) I am curious about her parentage. Presumably she was a Darkness goddess (her main rune is Darkness; Prosopaedia etc.) who was turned to Chaos in the Greater Darkness; much like Vivamort was. Was she maybe a daughter of Subere? Arcane Lore (and Prosopaedia) lists her as "sister of Tyram", which is interesting, as a counterpoint to the latter's Sky/Fire rune. Similarly, she invades Hell (from somewhere) and Tyram goes the other way (from somewhere). "Father of Demons" seems to be a likely father. Maybe to both her and Tyram.

metcalph Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 I think Vakalta, Tyram and Xamalk spawned from Jotimam rather than have their origin in corrupted deities. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Note the two spellings when searching: pre-GtG: Vakalta (LoT, Arcane Lore, Sartar KoH) post-GtG: Valkata (GtG, Prosopaedia) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
