I know Ernalda tests plants, because a ring member once told me "Rana's plant knowledge now rivals that of the heros of old. She should surely be able to complete the Ernalda Feeds the Tribe heroquest now." or words to that effect.
Lhankor My I assume tests custom, and if you choose to make your quester wiser, he/she gains a point in custom.
Challana Arroy, if you choose to make the quester wiser, gives a boost to magic. Whether it tests magic or not I don't know, but it seems likely.
I assume that Making of the Storm Tribe tests leadership, Humakt's quest tests combat, Uralda's quest tests animal, and Issaries tests bargaining.
Some of these may actually look at more than one characteristic--i.e. I suspect Uralda may also look at leadership, and Ernalda at leadership or bargaining, but I have no proof of this.
Note that there are 9 quests and seven
characteristics. Orlanth and Aroka and Elmal Guards
the Stead are a bit harder to place. Obviously
Orlanth and Aroka looks at combat, but I don't know if
it also looks at something else. I have no clue what
Elmal looks at, and I have completed it with a wide
variety of Elmali (it is one of my favorite quests),
and the biggest key seems to be good preparation.
I hope this is of some help.
