** Kind of a weird case - the Lunar Empire promotes (cosmic) Chaos but is ''very'' organized, whereas the Orlanthi are Chaos-hating barbarian berzerkers.

** ArmorIsUseless is likewise averted, as armor directly reduces damage taken when hit. Heavy armor and a good shield are the best way to survive a battle.

* OurMonstersAreDifferent: You can even play intelligent ducks, called Durulzi in ''[=RuneQuest=]''. (It has its advantages: small size, high Dexterity, and hardly anyone notices a Duck — perfect for a thief/rogue or a mage. And you know what ? They have their own island empire in the far East.)

'''[=RuneQuest=]''' was created by Chaosium in 1978, making it one of the oldest tabletop RolePlayingGames. Among other things, it introduced an experience system that replaces the levels (as in TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons) with skills that increase if you successfully use them ({{Traveller}} replaced levels with skills first but they didn't increase with use). It also introduced hit regions instead of general HitPoints.

The original [=RuneQuest=] was set in the GameWorld named Glorantha. As the authors say:
