A portion of the character creation session for our new Runequest: Glorantha campaign, in which we establish the characters' backgrounds in Dragon Pass.
Wow, that really is very Pendragon, isn't it? I've never seen Gloranthan characters as being driven by their whims the way Arthurian ones are, but I really like the family background and the way characters are inserted into the ongoing history.
I realise I'm back after the end of the initial campaign, but I'm really looking forward to Runequest! I've heard about it but done absolutely no background reading, so the background session was kinda interesting from that perspective as well.
I agree with Roger, I think all campaigns need the Pendragon "Character family history" generation during character creation.
