The purpose of this web page is to provide a consolidated place to obtain information to aid game masters in running a campaign in the Lunar occupied Kingdom of Sartar in the fantasy world of Glorantha. It started as a personal collection of links to selected sections of other web pages. I got tired of constantly searching the net time and again to find that article about such and such a topic buried in someone's pages, so I started to maintain a list of links to information related to the region of Sartar. Since I keep all this information up to date for myself anyway, I thought others would find these links useful. I also plan to expand on the Local Information sections as I write articles of my own or receive articles from others who would like them placed here.
