Well, I didn't ask, really (see "We won't ask why..."). But, to me, a farmer would be best employed, well, farming. Support the revolution by providing food and comfort to rebels, being a Bread rebel, instead of a Sword rebel (BA 38). He is really, *really* out of his depth, here.
But we can argue motivations for ever and never exhaust the subject.

Hey, *I* didn't bring it up, I'm just suggesting a way to do it. (Also not the weasel words "as if", "sort of", etc. ). It doesn't need to use the exact rules for a Wyter Heroband (frex, does everyone need to pay a point to "join" the Great Storm? I probably wouldn't force them to...), I'm just suggesting that instead of being vague about what something does, spell it out a bit more. Or don't spell it out at all and just play it by ear. The rules support it either way. There's a Honkin' Big Storm overhead and I worship Orlanth? Okay, I'll jump off the wall... Depending on the narrator, the result could be "Orlanth supports you as you fall, and you land in the middle of the enmy formation, surprising them." or "Splat".

wyter...

W5? For Great Orlanth? Hardly. Try W12.
