He/him. Old and tired TTRPGer. Really quite gay.
I would love to run Runequest for you. Or anything else we decided we fancied.

That's the one!

I'm not sure what to paint next. Could be a manticore, could be a giant, could be some elementals, could be some ghouls. Could be something else.

I'll see what I feel like at the weekend.

Our RuneQuest PCs have encountered one particular Dancer in Darkness 3 times. EVERY SINGLE TIME, my Ernaldan PC has been enthralled by her as soon as the encounter starts.

The other players in the group decided the one in the green dress is that one.

The presentation of vampires and the Cult of Vivamort in "old" RuneQuest is very Hammer House of Horror.

It was the picture of the Dancer in Darkness in the current Glorantha Bestiary that brought the Brides of Dracula to mind for me.

In the original book, they're described as one with blonde hair and the other two having dark hair. Yeah, I'm nerdy enough to have checked.

I decided not to make both of the dark-haired vampires have black hair just to give it a bit more variation.

Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Lentils now, lentils now, lentils now!

Some the PCs' runes and passions have heavily driven how they approach things or how they react. I really, really like that aspect of RQG.

We were doing one last simple task before my PC stayed home for a bit of maternity leave. But.. Stuff Keeps Happening and we were drawn into a heroquest.

On the plus side, being pregnant in the Underworld gives Ernalda cultists plenty of mythic resonance to work with.

Good luck. Give him a good fuss from me.

Is he posing for an inspirational propaganda poster there or something?

One day, she'll sit the bairns down and tell them about "all the things I killed with my axe while you were in my tummy..."

We've had about an hour of quite heavy snow here in County Durham. Bitterly cold morning, too, when I was putting the recycling bin out before work.

Yeah but I've *just* had dinner and I'm absolutely stuffed.

I apologise to anyone who has now been made to think of taking a journey to Slough.

To clarify, I didn't meant the town in Berkshire. I meant the much less unpleasant idea of sloughing away your body and flying around with your internal organs trailing from your neck.

Shampoo AND body wash? Take TWO bottles into the shower?

With new Penanggalan hair conditioner, I just Slough & Go.

There should have been a chime when he hit the search button.

"Bingle bells, bingle bells,
Bingle all the facts!"

It's okay, I've got some (checks forecast) hail and sleet to look forward to. And the wind coming in off the North Sea.

That'll take my mind of the cold.

"Offaly good"? "Organic"? "Flyaway hair tips"?
