'The New World Can Be Healed. Whitewall Must Fall!'

A Heroquest RPG group dedicated to describing the siege of the Orlanthi city of Whitewall by the Lunar Empire in the years 1619-1621 ST.

The last unconquered Orlanthi city. The last temple of Orlanth. A two and a half year siege. The beginning of the Hero Wars.

King Broyan. Kallyr Starbrow. Fazzur Wideread. Tatius the Bright. Haughty Darra Happans. Surly Lunars. Smelly Sartarites. Vengeful Volsaxi. More heroes per square metre than Gimpys or the Glamour Baths!

The Lunars want to heal the universe and chain a troublesome rebel deity. The Orlanthi are fighting for their god and for freedom, to save the world from terrible slavery. It doesn't get any bigger than this.

Our aim is to explore and document the siege in a way that is most useful for individual scenario and short story creation from both the Lunar and Orlanthi perspectives. Our goal is to produce a sort of combined FAQ and framing bible to inspire individual GMs and shapers - 'Open Source Whitewall'!

New members are most welcome. If you're interested in contributing, be it as a wizened old expert on Lunar infantry units or as a Gloranthan newbie interested in helping fill out an *epic* roleplaying stage, take up your scimitar or spear and jump aboard!

'Warriors went to Whitewall * Came to Kallyr's calling
Kheldon Queen called clans * True champions came.

Warriors went to Whitewall * Brave Broyan the bold bade To stand strong in Storm hold * Orlanth's last altar.'
