Game Summary

Citizens of the Lunar Empire is a sourcebook for urban adventures for RuneQuest: Roleplaying in Glorantha. It focuses on the day-to-day lives of the working-class heroes of the Lunar capital.

Inside, you will find a detailed home base for your adventurers: The Insula, a typical multi-storey residential city-block. A self-contained microcosm of Lunar urban society, it is home to many families and businesses, ranging from scribes and traders on the lower floors to the unemployed, squatters, temple dancers and students at the higher levels.

This 172-page book contains:

  • Maps, floorplans and elevations.
  • Descriptions of 12 businesses and 25 families.
  • Portraits and statistics for 70 NPCs.
  • 60 adventure hooks for your urban campaign.
  • Details of daily life in an ancient city, from bread-making to waste disposal.
  • Rules for making a living and keeping a roof over your head in the sophisticated Lunar Empire.

Full details of the two main cults featured in Citizens, along with a detailed gazetteer and map of the city of Glamour, can be found in A Rough Guide to Glamour, also available from the Jonstown Compendium.
