Cover art by Boris Sirbey.
The oceans of Glorantha are terrifying but beautiful; awe-inspiring yet full of terrible dangers. Their mysterious depths pull at the inner being of humankind, yearning for them to return to the source of all life. Their waves and currents offer heroes adventure, glory, and plunder; an exciting life for some, a quick death for others.
Men of the Sea explores the seas, coasts, and islands of Glorantha through the eyes of sailor heroes. It introduces eight new homelands for heroes, describes the many different ways that sailors worship Dormal the Opener, explores life as a sailor, and provides full rules for applying the HeroQuest rules to sea-borne contests. Men of the Sea teaches players how to navigate their heroes across the wonderful, dangerous waters of Glorantha--brave or foolhardy, these sailors ply the seas in search of fame, fortune, and knowledge.
