Lore of the Moon

The Moon is the newest and the most divisive of the elements. It rose into the Middle Air and immediately stimulated conflict with all the other elements. The cyclic Lunar element dominates all its tactics.

Natha

Natha, The Balancer, and war goddess of Moon. Her harbinger is the Black Moon, intangible, unreal, seen by its effects on the Moon Goddess itself.

Annilla

Annilla – the Goddess of the Blue Moon, and the ultimate goddess of secret powers, such as conspiracies, the tides, and the vast forces that underly society.

She is personified by the Blue Moon, which falls from the skydome as the Blue Streak, and then must laboriously climb from Hell to the Skydome again.

Rashorana

Rashorana – the Midwife of Time, represented by the White Moon, which has never risen, but whose presence is dearly wished by all.

Her benign gaze marks the end of war and pain.

“Glorantha: The Gods War sees hobby legend Sandy Petersen at the height of his very considerable design skills.”

“The beautifully sculpted minis will draw you in; the rich strategy and strong replayability will keep you coming back. Player knowledge of the grand setting of Glorantha is strictly optional, but The Gods War does such a fine job capturing Glorantha’s spirit that newcomers will find it a perfect gateway to that legendary world.”
