Masters of Luck and Death
 |
This book takes the hero band rules from HeroQuest and puts them into practice. Each of the twenty-seven hero bands has a purpose for being in the Dragon Pass area¸ where the Hero Wars will start. Most are drawn from one of the homelands featured in HeroQuest¸ thus allowing new players an immediate home for their heroes. Five additional sections give tips about how to play in a campaign oriented around a certain type of hero: fighters¸ healers¸ scholars¸ wanderers and adventurers (merchants¸ entertainers¸ etc.)¸ and magicians.
This book has something for everyone: Donandar entertainers¸ draconic scholars¸ feuding healers¸ Imperial magicians¸ Geo's Inn¸ and the Slayers of Harrek. Old fans will recognize bands such as the Comet Seers¸ Sword Brothers¸ and the Temple of the Wooden Sword¸ old favorites given new life in this book. Old and new fans alike will enjoy the new information presented here on Dragon Pass¸ Glorantha¸ and their inhabitants.
