I'll have to get KoS back from the guy I lent it to and look up some
local heroes/regional demigods to get some flavor. I figure, my
players will eventually get Thunder Rebels; I should do some homework
and keep them on their toes.

I see these heroes/demigods giving one affinity, and maybe some
additional feats in their god's other affinities. Few mortals would
rise to the point where they would give multiple affinities, IMHO.
Not enough Time has passed yet.

Agreed. But I was looking at "Dragons Past 1" on the Issaries website
(which I have made into a Word document to get rid of some annoying
formatting difficulties), and I noted Aggar and Ditali are primarily
Orlanthi, but quite likely have different subcults.
