Contents

Runemasters is a supplement for RuneQuest, that includes rules for creating and playing rune masters.[1] RuneMasters describes in detail 45 powerful rune-level NPCs from the cults in Cults of Prax. The book also includes guidelines on how to create and run high-level characters.[2]

Publication history

RuneMasters was written by William R. Keyes, with art by Luise Perenne, and was published by Chaosium in 1980 as a 48-page book.[2]

Reception

Forrest Johnson reviewed Runemasters in The Space Gamer No. 33.[1] Johnson commented that "Many GMs prefer to create their own NPCs, but this is a time saver."[1]

Oliver Macdonald reviewed Runemasters for White Dwarf #25, giving it an overall rating of 9 out of 10, and stated that "In all RuneMasters contains a lot of useful material and would be well worth the cost to any GM as long as they use the Cults of Prax. Obviously drawing, as it does, such a lot of material from this book its usefulness is greatly reduced otherwise."[3]
