Hello, Subject: Shameless plug Several people have asked about where to find various info: If you really want a fairly comprehensive resource that can answer those types of questions, I recommend buying a copy of the MIG. This Index to Glorantha covers all of the mainstream products for all versions of RQ and the world of Glorantha. It details all of the products and what they contain. If you want to know where to find a cult writeup, a spell description, a creature's stats, a scenario, or a skill description, this is the work for you. By the way, the cult of Eurmal was written up in Questlines. There is also a partial writeup in River of Cradles. The Trickster cult in general was detailed in Gods of Glorantha. All of these sources are still available. The MIG is still available from David Hall or the Wizard's Attic, although stocks are VERY low. A note about tricksters. Most PC tricksters tend to ignore a comment Greg Stafford made a while back. Most Trickster magic tends to backfire about 50% of the time. Also, many societies deal with Tricksters very harshly. They are outside of the law, and have no protection under it. Many villagers would be happy to string one up as soon as they found out. Most tricksters are loners. Loners tend to do rather poorly in Glorantha, although there are exceptions. The Lunars and Orlanth... The Orlanthi that the Lunars care about the most are the clan/tribal and religious leaders. The Lunars make it as attractive as possible to join the lunar way. They offer numerous incentives to join and penalties for those who don't. Starving tribes are lured with grain. Teelo Norri helps care for the sick. Taxes are less on tribes that convert. Rune Priests that are tolerant of the Lunars are propped up. Passing a simple law like banning Orlanth doesn't seem to fit as well, unless you like the notion of "every Orlanthi wants to kill every Lunar in Cold blood".
