ISTR that the rules say that the 20 points are only for improving the abilities in the 100 words / list method and not for creating new skills. So the answer to this would be that you would have to include it in your initial character definition. Though as I understand it being a member of 3 subcults is unusual.

Yes :-)

I would use "Orlanth Thunderous" as the keyword and list Initiate of Destor as one of the abilities :-)
