Agree'd. Many of the various subcults of Orlanth/Ernalda just cry out for player characters. And I just don't have time to expore them all, darnit. =) Kev is neat and Kadone just look way too much like fun and I'm thinking there's a lot that can be done with Andrin.

Its going to get _worse_ when Storm Tribe comes out (off to presses?) and we see the various subcults of the old standbys of LM and Issaries and so on.

Here's to an interesting future.
