The official site of the Hammer of Lochost game hosted on Rondak's Portal.

On these pages you will find information relevant to our game and that will hopefully give you some feeling for the setting and content of the campaign.

On the Ways of Orks—A discussion on life as an ork, full of lots of tidbits on seizing life and shaking it. Be aware that this is a typical view of orkish life; you're free to deviate from these standards to some extent (though you may get whalloped by the "real" orks...)

Barsaive History—A brief overview of the world of Earthdawn and the province of Barsaive. Your character might not know all the information here, but you as a player can.

Ork Glossary—A handy list of orkish words to spice up your life and get you into the feel of orkiness. This will be updated as the game progresses. I'm hoping that the players will be inventing some new terms to add as we progress.

Gahad and You—An overview of the phenomenon of gahad and some of the consequences it can have in the game.

Character Sheet Explanations—A rundown of the character mechanics in the game. A helpful reference as we make our way.

Images—Some images of orks to give new folks a feel for the race.

The Honorable Way of the Thunderer Cavalry—An overview of the cavalry to which your characters belong, along with important names and history.

Game Mechanics—A few notes on specific game issues, like die rolling and combat procedures.

Riders of the Blork'jvaar—A brief overview of each of the members of the cerri.
