Intrepid scholars have discovered the 'Gregged' rune. It represents the introduction of cataclysmic change into Glorantha, a phenomenon which has disturbed sages and lay members alike over the ages. It stands for the goofy disruption of community and contributions, which has made Glorantha what she is today (but wasn't yesterday).

As you can see, the two dots recall the Illusion rune ('shattered illusions'?); the curves combine Disorder and Motion ('disorderly change'?) with a hint of the Infinity rune ('infinitely broken'?), while the loop at the bottom hints at Creation ('flawed creation'?).

(A God Learner analysis indicates that 'Gregged' is a combination of all four runes: Illusion, Disorder, Motion and Creation... which is rather peculiar, as the God Learners don't know anything about a "Creation" rune... oh no, even this article has been Gregged!)

We encourage anyone who's been Gregged and who has a web site to include the rune on their sites. You may copy and use the image just like the core rune images mentioned in Issaries' online policy, only without paying attention to any of the legal bits.

There are variations for the different Greggings of the past, the most significant of which is generally agreed to be the Elmal/Yelmalio Gregging:

With any luck, you will never need to discover your own variant on this most dire Rune.
