With great pleasure, I am happy to announce the inception of a new magazine
for Runequest and Glorantha fans.

Codex dedicates its entire contents to discovering the nature and secrets of
Glorantha through scenarios, articles, fiction and essays.

Issue 1 is a Pavis special, with about half of the issue examining facets of
Pavic history, Lunar strategy in the city, details of life and infamous
residents. One of tha articles contains material originally intended for the
upcoming Strangers in Prax release from Avalon Hill but cut due to space
limitations.

Other articles include a two part adventure in Dorastor that doesn't involve
even a tiny bit of chaos, Sandy Petersen & Martin Crim describing the nature
of most of the Praxian Tribes, and beautiful artwork by Laura Morgan, whose
illustrations of Toadface, Bigmouth and Greenpee the broos should be very
useful to anyone who owns River of Cradles. Her art was originally intended
for inclusion in River of Cradles.
And that's not all, but you'll have to get a copy to see what else.
Issue 1 is 32 pages typeset, plus front & back covers inside & out.

Subscription & Submission Information

Codex costs $3.75 US per issue direct from my hand, or $4.50 first class US
Mail. Foreign cust
omers, please write for rates, but it is probably about 50c higher than 1st
class. Sorry, only US funds acceptable. Checks or money orders only, please
for all mail orders. The publication schedule is intended to be quarterly,
but depends in large part on submissions. The next issue is scheduled f
or release April 1, 1994. Make what you like of that date.
Send all paper correspondence to:

M. Dawson/Codex
P.O. Box 9286-0286
Richmond, VA 23227 USA
Send E-mail correspondence to 
codexzine@aol.com 

I solicit your submissions of Gloranthan material for publication in Codex.
Due to production limitations, I only accept articles submitted over e-mail
or by disk. (Time does not allow retyping from paper.) Disk is preferred to
e-mail, though file transfer via AOL is fine. Artwork is accepted in hard
copy, but since I must scan everything in, it should be rendered in a format
suitable for scanning. (That means black & white ink drawings without large
solid black areas. The halftone pencils used in this issue are very
expensive.) All rights revert to creators after publication, and creators
receive a free copy of the issue of Codex their material appears in. Further,
artists who send their work in a usable computer format (Photoshop, TIFF,
PICT, EPS, Freehand 3.0) receive their choice of two copies of the issue
their work appeared in, or one copy of two issues. The preferred format is
Macintosh Word 5.0, but I can read DOS disks and most word processor formats.
I also follow most of the submission guidelines for RQ as published by Avalon
Hill. ( I helped write them, after all.) 

Codex debuts at RQ Con. Seek out Mike Dawson on Friday or Sunday, and Harvar
Ironfist on Saturday during Home of the Bold.

Thanks for reading to the end!
Mike
