In <http://heroquest-rpg.com/support/hq_rules-qa.html>, Greg mentions that Broyan has the Sword and Helm of Vingkot. If the Esrolian Queens already know this,...
Charles Corrigan ... And I always wondered why he became protector of Kethaela and gave away the City of Wonders to Harrek! This sounds very much like an...
That's great. What an interesting idea. He is, in fact, a threat to the Queens. But do they truly have to offer him help if he has these artifacts? Why? Just...
... I've been trying to work out how the Queens would view this and I've come to the conclusion they wouldn't think of it as much of a threat. I think they see...
... Yeah, I think that if the Esrolian myth is that Ernalda took power back from the men, then just having the regalia doesn't mean anything. (Although, as you...
... Broyan has quite enough on his plate with Heortland, without trying to meddle in Esrolia Across the Bay. Is he a thrat to the Queens? Only if they think so...
... The Esrolian Queens take it very seriously - Greg told a story from Harmastsaga several years ago at Tentacles where he described the reaction of the...
... Maybe, maybe not. Is it a belief established from the grass roots up or merely from the top down? If the later then you might find that Esrolians believe...
... That argues that their government was pretty shaky and unpopular even at that time. And if they're still worried about it 1000+ years later then I doubt...
... How does polyandry make it worse? Is the idea that the men are monopolized by the "dominant women"? ... I think this is a complete YGWV decision. ... I...
... A good point. And it reminds me that we might need to flesh out the various Earth priestesses we've got here. I'm pretty sure that they're some of the most...
... And Broyan is tattooed with the marks of the Kodigvari (as I said, Greg and I have been working a lot on Broyan and the Hendreiki recently). Expect more...
... Yes, I can't see any sense in him trying to do anything, I'm not sure what he would be capable of anyway given the Lunars have control of most of...
... I'm thinking that any society that's been reasonably stable since the God's War is going to be based on beliefs largely shared by the majority of the...

... Who is Vinga Dar, not an Earth cultist. ... Yep. Though I get the impresssion her power is political rather than magical? ... True. ... A very good point....
... Ah, I wasn't sure and it doesn't say on the Wiki. In fact I wonder if we aren't too quick to use Vinga Dar rather than Orendana. ... With the history...
... I'm pretty sure that Leika is Vinga Dar. Here's my notes on her coronation in 1614: THE CROWNING OF QUEEN LEIKA BETI (1614) In a hastily assembled and...
... I have to agree with this. ... I do like the idea of the Lunars preaching sexual equality and thus the liberation of men through the Goddess. But I think...
My take on the Broyan/Queens/Esrolia situation is: 1 - Broyan has little or _NO_ interest in Esrolia 2 - The Esrolian populace are not particularly unhappy...
Charles Corrigan ... As of 1619, that is. 1622-1624 sees Broyan fighting the Red Earth Faction in Esrolia, culminating in the Battle of Pennel Ford. ... My...
... Colmyr ... I think historically the player character was an Orlanth worshipper and a warrior of renown. That doesn't fit the profile for Beti I think....
... Fair point - but this *is* the WhiteWall list. 1619-1621 is therefore the main period of interest. ... Word of warning for those not versed in English ...
... She was, yes. http://www.runegate.org/whitewall/wiki/Leika Jeff has her as "Vinga Drogarsi with a pretty powerful archery feat". I assume she'd have needed...
Jane Williams ... Sure. However, the future history tells us how and when the "evil grandmothers" strike. Anything occurring in Whitewall might be groundworks ...
... I'm not too bothered about individuals, it's just that two of the biggest tribes are ruled by Vinga Dar Kings. On the basis that an "Orlanthi all" kings...
... Alternatively they could retrieve the sword and helm and put them somewhere safe. i.e. separate and well away from anywhere Broyan can get them. -- Donald...
... Actually, in the "now" of WW, Leika does not rule the Colymar. ... Fine. I don't thing we're trying to invent more - in any case, the SR series tells us...
