I assume he could improvise those special feats, though, with no additional penalty, just as if he were a simple initiate to OA/Finovan.

P.S. Managed to get TR Tuesday. You'd think a store in Texas would get it
before stores in Scotland, but apparently we're off in Ralios or something. Perhaps our clan chieftan pissed off the Issaries merchants or something.... Anyway, I like it a lot. It's a good snapshot of a culture, warts and all.The mix n' match approach to cults was a little bewildering at first (as this thread attests), but I think I'm getting the hang of it. There's a lot to digest; it should keep me chewing until the next book....
