First Two Volumes of the Cults of RuneQuest are Set for August Release

Jun 28, 2023

This summer will see the release of the first two player facing volumes of Cults of RuneQuest from Chaosium Inc. Each book will feature a plethora of cults to incorporate into the world of Glorantha and enable many more character options and game lore. Cults of RuneQuest: The Lightbringers will carry an MSRP of $39.99 and Cults of RuneQuest: The Earth Goddesses will carry an MSRP of $37.99 when they arrive in August.

About the books:

In RuneQuest, every player-character’s spells, skills, and other bonuses are determined by the cult (or cults) they choose to join. The Cults of RuneQuest series allows players a wealth of new character options by presenting full pantheons of gods beyond those found in the RuneQuest core book.

Each volume of Cults of RuneQuest stands alone and covers a different pantheon, so you can purchase just the book for your favorite collection of Gods, or multiple books to expand your options (and understanding of the lore and mythology of Glorantha).
