About the adventure
Experience Jonstown, the city of libraries in the newly liberated Kingdom of Sartar. This short campaign consists of 3 adventures - "A rough landing", "A fire in the darkness" and "The Rainbow Mounds". This starter campaign is designed for new players, with 14 pregenerated characters (although players can create their own original PCs as well.) This will take place on the Foundry VTT platform. Come and join us in a world where myth is real, and magic comes from enacting the great deeds of your gods.

About me
GM since 1980, I run games you haven't heard of. Indie and non-Hasbro games are my gig! I wrote 'How Humakt Learned to Grieve' for the Jonstown Compendium. I run Star Wars, RuneQuest and other non-Hasbro games. I use safety tools such as lines and veils, X-card, brief and debrief, bleed management tools and others. My table is an explicitly safe BIPOC/ND/Queer/Trans/LGBTIA+ space as I am queer and nuerodivergent myself.

Creating your character
Characters can be created either per the rules in the Runequest: Roleplaying in Glorantha core rulesbook, or you can use any of the 14 pregenerated characters in the RQG Starter Set. The GM will provide all handouts needed and will guide you through the character creation process.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
All you need are a set of headphones, a mic, and a discord account. We will be using Foundry VTT via The Forge, so you should also get a free account at https://forge-vtt.com/ .
What Chris brings to the table
I will provide all handouts and pregens necessary for play. While owning the RQ Starter Set can be helpful, they aren't necessary for participation.
Homebrew rules
None at this time, since this is a first time experience for new players.
