Pour Cults, la fresque du Monomythe semble quasi terminée, par Agathe Pitié

Jeff Richard:
Now this is how I see Gloranthans viewing their cosmos. You might be an initiate of Orlanth but you acknowledge the existence and power of an entire tapestry of deities. You accept more than "just" the myths of your god, but an entire kaleidoscopic array of mythic deeds that made the world what it is.

This an aspect of polytheism is something many modern Westerners have difficulty with - grasping the idea that there are many many gods. I might have my "personal deity" but I acknowledge and accept the existence of countless others - including deities that might be enemies of my own personal deity.

Although we say Agathe was the artist, in truth this piece decorated the Royal Palace of Boldhome. The real artist is unknown. Based on the content and theme, I believe it was commissioned circa 1630 by the King of Dragon Pass, although the heavy Esrolian influences support the idea that this is an earlier piece, from perhaps the reign of Tarkalor or Terasarin.

However, based on the similarity this fresco has with the Boldhome Codex, I still think a later date is correct. But who really knows?

In this piece, we can see the full story of the Gods Age, made up of countless smaller stories that we can combine together.

Couverture du Kit de Démarrage par Ossi Hiekkala:

Image
The four softcover booklets, interiors filled to the brim with new and select prior artwork, printed in full color. They include the following:

. Book 1: Rules – A 64-page rulebook with all the rules you need to play the contents of the Starter Set, including skills, combat, Passions, spirit and Rune magic, and experience. Cover art by Andrey Fetisov.

. Book 2: The World of Glorantha – A 64-page booklet with two parts, the first being an overview of the world of Glorantha, its gods and the Dragon Pass area, and the second half a spotlight on the city of Jonstown right in the heart of Sartar. Jonstown was chosen specifically to be a manageable city for players and the gamemaster to base adventures out of, and it has never been described before in this much detail. Inside this book are details of the city, its unique features, and an array of nonplayer characters, ranging from its important to its everyday denizens. Finally, rounding it out is a gazetteer of its immediate area. Cover art by Hazem Ameen.

. Book 3: SoloQuest – This booklet contains Battle at Dangerford, a 60-page solo adventure designed specifically to teach the rules and introduce Glorantha. In it, the player takes on the role of Vasana, a bison-riding soldier caught up in one of the pivotal battles in Dragon Pass. No gamemaster required! Of all the pieces in this book, this one is a personal favorite. Cover art by Eduardo Gutiérrez García.

. Book 4: Adventures – In this 84-page booklet are three full-length ready-to-play adventures. The first, A Rough Landing takes place immediately after the events in Battle at Dangerford. The second, A Fire in the Dark, is an investigation where the threat may not be what it seems, and the third is an update of the classic RuneQuest adventure, The Rainbow Mounds. The rest of the book is filled with adventure seeds, a rumors table, a section on city encounters, and a simplified calendar. Cover art by Andrey Fetisov.

Maps, Pregens and More!

Three Maps – RuneQuest has always been known for its maps, and the new edition especially. Rather than overwhelming players with a massive map showing the entirety of Glorantha, we chose to focus on the area spotlighted in the Starter Set. So inside are three full-color folded maps. They include the Jonstown/Sartar region, the city of Jonstown, and the Rainbow Mounds themselves, a two-sided map labeled on one side and unlabeled on the other.

Fourteen Ready-to-play Adventurers
– While RuneQuest’s highly immersive system for creating player character adventurers is the absolute best way to experience the full range of possibilities for adventuring in Glorantha, it might be too involved for a Starter Set. It is not as suitable as a quick introduction, as it can require some careful decision making or planning by the gamemaster. So, we decided to use pregenerated adventurers as the default.

We have gotten tremendous feedback about the accessibility of our seven pregenerated adventurers—Vasana, Harmast, Yanioth, Vostor, Sorala, Vishi Dun, and Nathem—and wanted to make sure that we used them for the adventure. However, we also wanted to spotlight some additional character types and cults, so we created seven additional adventurers to round up the roster to fourteen.

We love the new presentation so much and think players will too, so we’re including a few blank character folios for those who wish to create new adventurers using this style of adventurer sheet.

And don’t worry, fans of the Gloranthan versions of elves, dwarfs, trolls, and ducks, a downloadable group of non-human adventurers will be made available when the Starter Set is available, suitable for immediate use with the materials within, in the same format.

Reference Sheets – One of the best compliments we’ve received about the RuneQuest Gamemaster’s Screen Pack is about the 8-page reference guide inside, specifically that “It is worth the price of the whole pack.” While the one in the Starter Set is only four pages long, it hopefully serves the same utility. Additionally, we’ve included a Rune Reference and a Strike Rank tracker sheet for gamemasters and players to help keep track of melee rounds.

Dice – Also included is a set of seven high-quality gaming dice, containing all the ones used in RuneQuest.

Online Materials – If you purchase the RuneQuest Starter Set direct from Chaosium.com or a FLGS that's part of the Bits & Mortar initiative the price includes the PDFs. The Starter Set’s release will also see additional free materials available online to enhance and continue the Starter Set experience.
