Contents

[edit]

Quelbourne: Land of the Silver Mist is a supplement in which the setting is in the north of Kulthea.[1]

Publication history

[edit]

Quelbourne: Land of the Silver Mist was written by Daniel Henley and Margaret Henley, with a cover by Tony Roberts, and illustrations by Dan Carroll and Jennell Jaquays[a], and was published by Iron Crown Enterprises in 1989 as a 72-page book.[2]

Reception

[edit]

Oliver Johnson reviewed four supplements for RoleMaster set in Shadow World at the same time, in the August 1989 issue (#8) of Games International magazine: Journey to the Magic Isle, Demons of the Burning Night, Quellbourne: Land of the Silver Mist, and Tales of the Loremasters. Collectively, he concluded "too much of it is of the ‘seen it and done it all before’ variety" and that "Creatures and settings here are the worst side of amorphic[] all mush [sic] together into an unpalatable stew". To Quellbourne specifically he awarded 2 1/2 stars out of 5, and stated that "There is too much of the usual fantastic 'and here's the Moot Hall and here's the Herbalists' variety in the major town, Kelfal's Landing, not enough of a strong sustained plot to get the referee and players through a session."[1]
