Description
Troll Gods (Avalon Hill), boxed supplement for RuneQuest, by Greg Stafford, Sandy Petersen and William Dunn
“The Year is 1622 S.T. …
THE FIRST RUMBLES OF THE HERO WARS can be heard, and a time of change is upon the world of Glorantha. The Uzko, known to humans as trolls, the masters of the night, lords over the wastelands of Glorantha, have remained passive and hidden for centuries. Now they are beginning to stir.
In their wrath, the most daring Uz have begun to call upon all the strange and powerful gods of the darkness. Even the most sinister gods, such as Annilla, feared goddess of the Blue Moon, are rumored to be gaining converts (though no one has yet survived to substantiate such a disturbing rumor).
The trolls will have their revenge on the foolish humans that have so ruthlessly mistreated them since the world changed. The cover of this box shows one form such a revenge will take. A high priestess of Aranea, Mother of Spiders, has visited her pleasure on an unlucky group of human adventurers, who are now wholely or partially transformed into that most favored of creatures, the arachnid. Strangely, some of the adventurers seem less than thrilled with their metamorphosis.
Troll Gods is a Gloranthan supplement for RuneQuest. A companion piece to Trollpak, Troll Gods is the definitive work on the subject of troll deities. Specific contents are:
1. The Troll Cults Book contains comprehensive information on each of the fifteen most widely worshiped Troll Gods. The book contains 79 new spells for RuneQuest, as well as new skills and new monsters, and is profusely illustrated. Several cults appear for the first time in this supplement. (MINT condition)
2. Minaryth Purple’s Troll Facts #3: the Gods and Magic of the Uzko is a facsimile of a rare original document from the archives of the famous cult of Lhankor Mhy, God of Knowledge. This dangerous document was commissioned at great cost by a member of the Sartar nobility, and reveals many jealously-guarded troll secrets. The noble is reputed to have disappeared soon after receiving the original document, but the facsimiles are available for those who dare to read them. All aspects of the original document have been painstakingly maintained, including the three different styles of penmanship used, and certain other peculiarities as well, of which it is not safe to talk. (MINT)
3. Glorantha: Primary Troll Regions is a map of the entire world of Glorantha, showing the twelve most populous and influential troll regions. The areas correspond to the character generation areas in Trollpak. so the map is a handy reference for troll character generation. (NEAR MINT)”
The box itself is in GOOD condition.
