Apart from the numbers, yes. I've assumed 17 since it's part of the magic keyword. (TR p.175)
IMHO, Great Orlanth's virtues are mostly ones that would seldom be tested mechanically. Exceptions: Brave and Pious (which is equal to "Initiate of" or "Devoted to" anyway). But some of the aspect and subcult virtues look like good fun. Vanganth is my favorite - "Daredevil" summons up images of parachuters and various 'extreme sports' types. ;-)
