Runequest Glorantha Campaign by Andrew Montgomery / Jonstown Compendium / Chaosium
From the Platiunum-bestselling author of Six Seasons in Sartar, The Company of the Dragon, and The Seven Tailed Wolf, and winner of the 2022 Greg Stafford Memorial Award for Gloranthan Fandom, comes a new campaignof Gloranthan horror, Illumination, and corruption.
PAVIS. 1622 S.T.
The city teeters on a knife’s edge, ready to fall. In the Great Winter, refugees flood the streets. The granaries are empty. Violence escalates as hunger grows. There is no work to be had. No hope.
Then the Esrolian woman arrives.
Unva Prithverna is hiring, putting together an expedition deep into the Wastes. Stories of a lost city, of a goddess forgotten to Time, stir in her wake. For your adventurers, she offers salvation.
Or, perhaps, damnation.
Based on the sensational Lunar pillow book of the same name, within the pages of THE FINAL RIDDLE you shall find:
– An alternate system of Lunar Illumination, compatible with THE LUNAR WAY but tailored for this campaign.
– New rules for running horror-themed adventures in RUNEQUEST, focused on the corrosive forces of Chaos.
– The Weird Wastes, rules for exploring the Wastelands not as a simple desert, but a Chaos-shattered desolation where reality crumbles.
– Rules for Epic Passions, overpowering drives for tragic characters.
– Pavis in the Great Winter, a scenario that introduces your adventurers and the key NPCs.
– Riddles in the Dust, a trek deep into the Wastes where every league brings greater horror and madness.
– Six optional episodes of encounters along the way.
– The Final Riddle, a scenario that brings the adventurers at last to the lost city of Shum Sarzum, and face to face with its terrible secrets.
– Pre-generated characters based on the protagonists of the original Lunar pillow book.
– Detailed scholarly quotes on the importance of the book, and its role in ancient Glamour.
Welcome to the heart of darkness. Welcome to THE FINAL RIDDLE.
