Jeff Richard, in his part-time capacity as casting director of _RuneQuest, The Movie: II (this time it's Mythic)_, nominates:

> Leonard Nimoy as Lhankor Mhy;

<snigger> "That would be illogical, Orlanth. <raised eyebrow>"

Glen Bailey and others disapprove of Leslie Nielson as Orlanth. I suspect the avenues for Dead Pan Buffoonery in the Wooing of Ernalda (P. Presley?) are being overlooked here. (Nielson did, to be fair, play any number of straight roles, but when they show on tv, they're impossible to watch without being subconsciously braced for the sight gags...)
