Good gravy. How did you all fit round the same table? Or was this a freeform, or some Herisarchary such as Multiple Characters Per Player?

Nick's once-a-month rate of play is wild extravagance from my current sad perspective, but I tend towards the microcosmic, too. Partly through being naturally inclined to have a familiar "base" at least, from where to explore; partly from having that pseudo-seismic feeling in many parts of Glorantha ("Uh-oh -- Greg might be about to write this area we're standing on."); and partly because of the three-legged pig syndrome: you don't eat something that good all at once.

Please! If it's not exogamous, you're doing it wrong. ;-)

Glow, as in, "Moonburned until they", I trust.
