My favourite non-Donald one became the cover of Free INT 6. It shows a duck of roughly the same body proportions as Donald, but a less comical beak.

The IMO best Donald-style duck was depicted on last year's German RQ-Con t-shirt. I might auction a spare one off at Convulsion...

I would have chosen that, too, as the inside phrase for my fascination with G-world. On the non-gameworld level, the key word to me is "Communication" (and it's a Rune, too...). To be able to explore and expand the world interactively with all you people here, and on the conventions, is perhaps the main attraction of Glorantha to me.

>Erik: great duck stuff. I loved the Durulzan myth.

So did I. If anybody feels the need to complain that Durulzan became a subcult of Orlanth, rather than the beast people's main deity Cragspider - oops, Arachne Solara - check out the Composite History of Dragon Pass, which describes Ironhoof as a perfectly Orlanthi chieftain.

Seconded.
