Still doing anything with Ten Thousand Islands? I'd be happy to consult!
I have a question about RuneQuest (old skool). One gets battle/spirit magic from confronting and overcoming spirits. In order to do this safely, it's best to have the spirits summoned by a friendly shaman so that they are low power, otherwise one runs serious risks of ending up possessed. Now, reading the Pavis & Big Rubble sets and various other manuals, pretty much everyone (or at least every antagonist / mention-worthy NPC) has at least one battle/spirit spell and most people have several. But there's no mention of the shamans. Lots of rune priests/lords, trainers, rulers, etc are written up, but where are the shamans? there should be one on every street corner! Or am I missing something?
