[QUOTE="Bluenose, post: 8061025, member: 49017"] YGWV - Your Glorantha Will Vary. Whatever you do with Glorantha. it's your setting once you start playing with it. There have been several parts of canon that I've disregarded, modified or used for a different purpose in my time. For a starting adventure, I'd say Apple Lane if your campaign is going to focus on Dragon Pass. It's a nice little village which a group of young Sartarits with a few outsiders could plausibly start in, there's several plot hooks in place which aren't too complex but give a fair impression of the area and some aspects of life in Sartar, it works in pretty much any time period you want to play in (the new RQ: Glorantha has made some big changes to the current status of the setting locally), and there's potential for a long term relationship with the person who employs you and could send reliable people all across Dragon Pass in search of items he could trade. Alternatively, Pavis/Prax has a lot of detail in older editions. Pavis is much more cosmopolitan than Apple Lane so characters from all sorts of places could be there, it's a chance to introduce various strange and unusual cultures and non-humans, and the area is full of adventure hooks from years of development. There's a nice introductory adventure in the Pavis boxed set, then there's potential for running a variety of adventures before moving into the excellent Borderlands campaign After that there's still plenty of adventure to be had as well. It does mostly depend on the particular time period, which is around 1615 (RQ:G is 1625). The other thing is there's a lot of Community Content adventures on DriveThru now, for more than I could keep up with, but one I have got is Valley of Plenty and that has two introductory scenarios for newly initiated female and male characters respectively. I think it's a very good book, and it's supposed to be the first of a series. Though as is often the case, it's set in Sartar and nowhere near as varied in the characters likely to appear as a Pavis campaign. [/QUOTE]
