Eric Christian Berg Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Has anyone compiled a list of what gods and spirit societies are detailed in which HeroQuest books? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g33k Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Even better, IMHO, would be "All Gloranthan Books," letting folks from one game-system raid another system for a favorite (or just intriguing) but not-yet-developed-for-that-system dieties, cults, etc...

Pentallion Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I find it odd that Arachne Solara, the most powerful Goddess of this age, a Goddess worshipped by the Beast Folk of Dragon Pass.

Try looking at the Servants of the Wild in Masters of Luck and Death (pages 62-63) I think you will discover that these folk use the Wild Temple as part of their worship of "The White Spider" who is of course a manifestation of Arachne Solara Edited August 26, 2016 by Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Scott Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 On 25 August 2016 at 0:22 AM, Roko Joko said: "her spells are beyond mortal ken, and she does not respond to prayers and appeals." http://www.glorantha.com/docs/arachne-solara/. That's typical for great mystical entities. I think this is an important concept with Glorantha. Just because an entity exists doesn't mean it has to return magic and has a cult. Sure you can direct worship towards it as a cohesive group, but you don't have to get anything in return. A number of these beings exist: Earthmaker and the Horned Man are two. You don't get anything back unless you make personal contact. I think if you can transcend the otherworlds of Glorantha you might be able to meet these beings, but just getting their attention is going to be difficult, 1 Quote ----- Search the Glorantha Resource Site: https://wellofdaliath.chaosium.com.

soltakss Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 My Hero Wars Cult Conversion List contains references to where the cults appeared. I don't know how complete it is, but I thought I had stripped everything from the sources listed. The sources were: Barbarian Adventures:Sartar Rising HeroWars Roleplaying in Glorantha Rulebook Imperial Lunar Handbook 1 - The Lunar Empire Legacy of Pavis Tales of the Reaching Moon Thunder Rebels Storm Tribe - The Cults of Sartar In Wintertop's Shadow Imperial Lunar Handbook 2 Blood Over Gold Men of the Sea Champions of the Reaching Moon Orlanth is Dead Barbarian Adventures Sons of Kargzant Gathering Thunder Masters of Luck and Death Thieves' Arm Wintertop Fair Tarsh in Flames Moon Rites Quote Simon Phipp - Caldmore Chameleon - Wallowing in my elitism since 1982.

Depending on where someone draws the line, they could easily exclude most of all of the RQ3 cult writeups, ditto the HQ ones.

The fundamental problem though is that true exhaustiveness is an impossible -- for no matter how confusingly Hero Wars/HeroQuest 1 went into the detail of subcults, that detail was itself pretty incomplete, and furthermore, even those books did not detail every minor Orlanthi/Sartarite cult that there is. And the other pantheons & religions have been officially described with far less detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
