'lo folks.
I've been reading the list now for about two months (finally got caught up in the back dailies, whew!!) and would like to ask a favor.
I'm just now starting my first ever runequest campaign as a GM, and I've only played a handful of times, enough to know I like the system and love the world. I REALLY appreciate Sandy's (and other's) little info bits on Glorantha, but I'm sketchy on lots (read, most) of the background / gloranthan things.
I've got RQ2 versions of Cop, CoT, Troll Pack (I love these guys! 8-), and the borderlands (somewhere...) and the RuneQuest book itself.
Right now my players are guarding a caravan thats going through the plains of prax (timely info on the tribes, sandy!) trading with the tribes. What I'm most curious about are the oasis... most of them I've described as being your typical scrub/arid "truck" stop. Lots of people passing through, but not many who live there, hence no real structures. Can anyone give me some information on them like their history, why they're named what they are, any cult affiliations that are specific to certain oasis (I know they're all holy to Eirithra).
Um, if people don't want to clutter up the dailies with 'basic' stuff I accept e-mail enthusiastically, but I think (hope... I don't wanna be the only newbie 8-) there's at least one other person out there that would like to see it too.
Here's an adventure idea, maybe I can add something to the list instead of just picking everyone's brains:
A troll who's started an acting company, but hasn't quite gotten the idea that the audience should know its a play before hand, and most audiences don't like to be included in a play where the weapons are real and the actors are attacking them. Trollkin make terrible actors... and the party usually isn't very hip to paying for tickets after the fact.
