I've been carrying that in my head since 6th or 7th grade, LOL. The rest is probably paraphrasing on my part. Not sure who Gorgo or Thousand-Faced Moon refers to, or whether they are merely other names/titles for the same entity being invoked. I think Mormo is an actual mythological figure, maybe a minor death god? An internet search should help out... You might also look for Mantus and Mania (listed as king and queen of the dead/undead in the Palladium FRPG). Maybe Mormo was listed there as King of Ghouls... can't find my copy to check.</blockquote>
