By decree of the Red Emperor, the fleshpots of Massos in Darjiin will be the setting for a new competition to celebrate the unity and diversity of the Lunar Empire. Entitled "A Song for Peloria", bands and artistes from every constituent people of the Empire have been summoned to participate in the First Pelorian Song Competition!

A 2 hour Gloranthan 3rd age freeform, based on the infamous 'Eurovision Song Contest', this light-hearted all singing all dancing game will actually include some singing and dancing in a Gloranthan setting. Exotic costume welcome, and no you don't have to sing if you don't want to -- but if you want to mime or sing some of the worst songs ever written about this wonderful fantasy setting, this will be your chance!

A game of myth, magic, intrigue and third rate Pelorian pop set in the final days of a decadent empire, no knowledge of Glorantha is needed to play, but ear plugs may be! The Hero Wars were never meant to be like this...

In real life CJ is a third-rate ghostbuster; or perhaps more accurately an academic parapsychologist specializing in poltergeist cases: either that or he has played far too much Call of Cthulhu. A writer for various rpg lines over the years, he is perhaps best known for his work on books belonging to the Ars Magica 5th edition line or the Parapsychologist's Handbook for CoC
Having caught the Freeform bug back in 2000, CJ has run a large number of very divergent LARP style games, and is really looking forward to Continuum, for what will be his third visit - but first as a resident rather than mere day delegate. He plans to run his Freeform The Pelorian Song Contest (Eurovision Pop meets Glorantha) and if not exiled from the clan for that, a Heroquest 2 tabletop session based on, you guessed it, a poltergeist investigation...
