RuneQuest: Adventures in Glorantha, the triumphant return of one of the founding universes of the role-playing game
A fantasy universe like no other. An epic world where gods and mortals, myths and cults, spirits and elementals, monsters and heroes rub shoulders. Magic permeates every existing element, and the bonds between tribe, clan, and family are just as important as the relationships mortals have with the deities they worship. Beyond gods and spirits, Runes make and define reality. Those who manage to master them can shape the world.
