Today we lost the great, gentle, humble, generous Dario Corallo.

He was a single man army of art, design, inspiration and productivity.

His uncountable illustrations and tireless layout work made many of the Ye Booke of Tentacles books, Ian Thomson's original (and recent) Pavis & Big Rubble series and our Tradetalk Magazine possible in the first place.

Tentacles Convention, the German RuneQuest-Gesellschaft e.V. (Chaos Society) and THE KRAKEN owe Dario so very, very much. Our thanks could never be enough.

I like to share a piece of his art that shows just one tiny project I worked on with him from 2016. I asked all the great Glorantha artists of the time if they would contribute a free duck illustration for the Duck Army.

Of course he did. Of course it only took him very little time. Of course it was perfect.

But these are just the tip of the iceberg. Who knows how many unofficial games are already being discusses and planned …
