Does anyone have details on the cults of Shargash, Dendara the Entekos, Erissa, and
These days I'm curious in 'outsider' views of various deities. Frex, how Dara
Are there any shared myths of Shargash and Orlanth, Godlearner-created or
other Pelandan/Dara Happan deities, in RQ3 terms? I'm curious how these cults
would appear in an RQ3 format. Also, how would the Godlearners reconciled them
with the rest of Genertelan mythology (spefically Uz, Kralori and Orlanthi myth?)
Happans and Carmanians view Orlanthi deities from Sartar and Esrolia. It
definitely seems that the Lunars have a very cosmopolitan view, acknowledging the
Lightbringers in their myths, while seeing them as enemy or outdated deities.
While the whole Lunar vs Orlanthi thing has been done to death, I'd be curious to
see, say, how a Shargashi warrior from Alkoth would view a Sartarite tribesman and
his strange gods, and vice versa.
otherwise? How do Pelorians and Dara Happens feel about the Cult of Yelmalio, for
example? From the impressions I got from www.glorantha.com, it seems that some
Dara Happans feel that Orlanth is a debased version of the Great Destroyer.
Peloria-philes, help me out!
Aloha,
