Willow for MRQ

[Magistus]

How about a Version of Willow for RuneQuest.

Willow was gleeful

But it was pretty generic stuff, really. It would really need someone to flesh it out. Mind you, wasn't there a sequel in the form of a novel - George Lucas and Chris Claremont of X-Men fame if memory serves?

For the Willow movie release in the 1980s, I wrote The Willow Sourcebook generic roleplaying supplement, published by Tor Books as part of a doomed slate of licensed tie-ins. The book presented statistics in a format "compatible with" AD&D without actually infringing copyright. Though it turned out pretty well as a book, I think The Willow Sourcebook sold about ten copies worldwide.

Interestingly, there are Willow fans to this day who think highly of my book, although I believe the later Chris Claremont novels made much of the sourcebook obsolete.

Funny you mentioned the Willow Source book, I had a friend that owned a copy and while watching the movie with my son, I thought about that source book and then made that post above.

The first sequel ruined the world for me.


SPOILER ALERT













He whacks the two best characters, Madmartigan and Sorsha, offscreen mere pages into the novel. It was a long, boring plod that I 90% finished after that.
