I made a video introducing the world and lore of Glorantha to my rpg players. This is the mythic setting of games like RunQuest, Six Ages, Hero Quest, King of Dragon Pass, and more.

It’s a great list! Even though it looks like we are not on it! It must have been compiled by those dragon-loving degenerates from the Empire of the Wyrms Friends 😜
Are you a RuneQuest fan or creator? Did you know that @dickwhiskey.bsky.social put together a "starter pack" of accounts you might be interested in? No? Well now you do.

I watched Nick Park/ Aardman's #EarlyMan yesterday- a tale of Stone Age man in conflict with Bronze Age man, set as near Manchester (which means Bolton or Liverpool, right?). Nick Park has cleverly disguised the film's #Gloranthan origins. 1/ some
