two_fishes Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 It doesn't look like any of the 13G character classes translate Runequest shamans? Are there any 13th Age classes more generally that could be adapted to be something like a RQ shaman? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
two_fishes Posted June 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 (Oh right, Hell Mothers, but what about a shaman of Waha or Daka Fal?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig N Posted July 6, 2019 Report Share Posted July 6, 2019 Not easily. You can see how you'd have to bang on the hell mother quite a bit to adapt her to a different type of shaman: that's at least as true for any of the other magical classes. One of my PCs is actually going to be gaining shamanic abilities in the near future, which I'm treating as multiclassing to a bard variant ("songs" become spirits which you have limited control over, and which eventually escape back into the Spirit World) -- but I'm just using some animistic reflavoring, not trying to duplicate anything about what RQ (or HQ) shamans are supposed to do.

soltakss Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 Nothing in 13th Age Glorantha or the 13th Age Rules really looks like a Shaman. Hell Mothers are the closest thing, with their control over Spirits, but it isn't really the same. Quote Simon Phipp - Caldmore Chameleon - Wallowing in my elitism since 1982.

Kel M Posted September 10, 2019 Report Share Posted September 10, 2019 (edited) One of my players in my current 13G campaign has what he refers to as "gaming ADHD", and he has shown an interest in Praxian shamans. I did think that either the Hell Mother or maybe the Druid from 13 True Ways would do the job, but both are a lot of work. The Hell Mother is probably the least work, having said that, because only the flavour really needs to be changed. The game mechanics could remain the same. Jeez, wait a minute... I think two-fishes is that player! Hey, man. LOL! (Was it you who wanted to be a shaman? I thought it was another player, who has already switched characters once on purpose.)

davecake Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 I have thought about doing a class conversion of druids for a more generic shaman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
two_fishes Posted November 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 I don't think I've ever described myself as having gaming ADHD. Is that Alex? Or maybe Derek? But yeah, I'm working on that shaman of Waha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richienvh Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 I too love Shamans and miss them in 13G I have seen that some of you were attempting conversions back in 2019. Did any of you succeed? Would you be so kind as to share your insights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chekmx Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) I have a player that want to play a Praxian Spirit Talker. So I am thinking about how to offer a Assistant shaman of Waha I think my take would be to bolt on the bound spirit of the Hell Mother as another talent. I was thinking for initiate you get the basic class feature and an adept then gets the Spirit Binder class Talent. Then I think most combinations other than Shifter and to perhaps limit Summon spells to Earth could be workable. Any thoughts?

soltakss Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 A forthcoming Jonstown Companion Supplement will include a Shaman class, once I have finished tweaking it. 1 Quote Simon Phipp - Caldmore Chameleon - Wallowing in my elitism since 1982.

Chekmx Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 If I ask how forth coming will I get a Chaosium style answer? Just asking because I am probably going to start my campaign at the end of the month but I can probably delay it a little bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chekmx Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) Also. Looking forward to seeing/purchasing some new 13g community content. Do you have any more tidbits you could mention to wet our appetites? Edited March 1, 2021 by Chekmx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soltakss Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 4 hours ago, Chekmx said: Do you have any more tidbits you could mention to wet our appetites? 6 new Classes. Also, rules to use 13AG-style Classes in QuestWorlds. But, mainly conversion of 13AG Classes etc into RuneQuest terms to be used as Kewl Powerz. 1 Quote Simon Phipp - Caldmore Chameleon - Wallowing in my elitism since 1982. Many Systems, One Family.

Chekmx Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 Thanks. I am going to run the Colymar campaign and intended to use 13g for combat and quest worlds rules for backgrounds so both the new classes & the Questworld stuff should be of interest to me. I shall look forward to its release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecake Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 I am still intending to do my version of a Shaman for 13th Age too, and put that on the JC. But I have no time frame for you. And my initial focus of Shamans (as a class conversion of Druid) will be Praxian, so probably not that helpful to a Colymar game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of room on the boat if you'd like to contribute. It would be a lump sum payment, of course, rather than a share of royalties.

One of my players want to play a Praxian Spirit Talker, we will have to work out how he has attached himself to the Orlmarth clan but I am sure it will all make sense in the end.
