I started this thread because I didn't want to Necro-post my month old "Women in Glorantha Thread".
So, it's occurred to me that Women in Glorantha have a lot of lee way in some respects in what they do. And the more I think on it, the more I think about creating a Glorantha supplement, website, blog (?) (maybe just a google document) called "The Hearth" - Adventures for Women, (for RuneQuest & HeroQuest), specifically, focusing on creating active scenario ideas and fiction for female characters (and all that encompass that in Glorantha).
Its been making me realize that so much of Glorantha is 'external' (though that is slowly changing and there have been amazing supplement :Valley of Plenty & Six Seasons in Sartar spring to mind, immediately, but The Red Deer Saga ( all of these and much more on the Jonstown Compendium)- it got me thinking, as how much of Glorantha says Men do this , Women do that, but then never explain how the women are active participants much in society, because the activites of their goddess seem mostly passive : She is not dead, She sleeps- springing to mind.
So if people want to contribute ideas or threads of one. I'd like that. I am going to use my self-made Clan as the focal point. Mostly because they're literally knew (created in 1625, by a coalition of women from various groups).
So I realized I can use them to tell a mythic history that binds them together in their clan making, in a way that many clans struggle to do.
Their actual clan making dance is started by a not- adult female. It got my mind turning about how a collection of women who aren't a clan yet- might go about collecting and pressing their mythical history in the God time, and giving it voice.
Their Wyter is the White Lioness (Alynx), and her pride-sisters form a sort of women's fyrd. There are Vingans but these two groups work together, as their story says that Vinga found the lion-cub in the Great Darkness and brought her to Ernalda, and the two became hunting partners.
How this story effects others which effect and grow the clan, making women both the nucleus and active in their clan's life in and politics in a way we've not often seen before. Admitedly I also looking to the tribe to help me cut the wheat from the Chaff, because I think my clan idea has too many ideas. And I think , while I am over on the Clan Hearth over on Facebook, sometimes things don't get cross posted ot brought up here so I thought I'd throw this out there.
So I do invite you all to join me in my endeavor.
Below is the half-created ramblings of a creative mind (but hopefuly with time this will get more organized) and with your help it'll get some unique perspectives.
