The team over at the Breakfast in the Ruins podcast are organising a mini roleplaying convention to be held at the function room of the Ginger Goose bar in Bradford. The con’s dates are the 6th & 20th of June and will be hosting good old fashioned Moorcock-flavoured roleplaying for systems old and new.
Player registration will be handled via Warhorn and a convention website and Discord channel is coming soon!
The following continues the summary of the Dorian Hawkmoon Saga (as provided in Mongoose Publishing’s Hawkmoon roleplaying game), covering the subsequent trilogy known as The Chronicles of Castle Brass.
Please note: Rather than rewriting Gareth Ryder-Hanrahan’s excellent overview it is presented here with only minor changes.
For a fuller accounting of these deeds, the reader should consult the four books collectively known as The History of the Runestaff: The Jewel in the Skull, The Mad God’s Amulet, The Sword of the Dawn and The Runestaff, as well as The Chronicles of Castle Brass: Count Brass, The Champion of Garathorm and The Quest for Tanalorn. Optionally, the tale of The White Wolf ’s Son is partially set in an alternate version of Hawkmoon’s world, although much of that tale is taken up with the deeds of Elric of Melnibone during his thousand-year dream. It is also illuminating and entertaining – though by no means necessary – to read all the books making up the Eternal Champion Cycle. For most adventures in Hawkmoon’s world, only the History of the Runestaff is relevant, as the later books concern events cosmic and otherworldly.
