I'll hopefully be starting a RQ game with some players that have never played in Glorantha before. To help them get to grips with things, I've written some background information for Pavis and Prax, which is in the next two mails. Although it seems like a lot, it ends up as three sides of A4 paper, with a map of Prax making the fourth page.

I intend it to serve two purposes: firstly, to give the players an overview of the world, and secondly to act as a "reference guide". If players want more information, then hopefully this background will give them a context for that as well. Sections in quotes are directed to the player; the rest is directed at the character.

Please let me have any comments at all on this. Is there too much information? Too little? Not enough detail? Too few mistakes? Dodgy English? Let me know so that it might improve.

If anyone wants to use this, feel free. I've got a prettier version with runes and the like (MS Word 6 format), available for the asking.

Thanks,

Neil.
