Rune Cards

The following files contain rune cards for playing the Gloranthan Heroes HeroQuest variant. We find that as a random element to the game they provide more local colour than rolling dice. Please see the Glorantha page for full copyright details and additional copyright information at the bottom of this page. The cards use runes from a variety of sources. Some use rune fonts taken from the Issaries Website. Others are from Wesley's Glorantha Site IV. It is possible that I have used some runes from other sources which I cannot now identify. If you think one of the rune fonts used is yours then please e-mail me and I will try to give you credit.  Where I could find some official runes for a religion I have tried to use them. In other cases I have chosen runes myself and where I could not locate a suitable rune I have designed my own. This is particularly true of entities or religions which do not have an official write up or have a write up that didn't include runes. These are therefore unofficial. To use these cards we print them out on thin card and laminate them.

The cards sets are:

bullet

Time Cards - Days, Weeks and Seasons.

bullet

Sartar and the Holy Country - some of the religions and powers of the region.

bullet

The Lunar Empire and Allies - religions and powers of the the Lunar Empire.

bullet

Other - Prax, Grazelands, Uz, Aldrya and Chaos amongst others.

Mastery Cards - the general random cards.
