I've got a hankering to run the Seven Voyages of Dormal, with players taking
the roles of Dormal and his companions. This would be the original crew of
newbs (including one newtling). All of the people they meet, and teach their
secrets to, would also then go on to be a crew of newbs (occasionally newtlings).
This wasn't too long ago in Gloranthan chronology. The Hero Wars is mostly
the first generation of seaman - their fathers were probably not sailors.
