Which can be dramatically interesting. Also, as I mentioned, the whole
"cycle through the goddesses" thing that shows up.
I think there is a similar thing going on with some male cults - maybe
not Orlanthi ones.
There is, as someone pointed out, a way to HQ to get the magics of a
mastery rune (or something like that) so it strikes me that your Humakti
guy could definitely go that route.

Similarly, I seem to recall many who get resurrected by Chalana Arroy
magics find themselves detached from life, and many others embrace her ways.
The first often join Humakt. (I may be misremembering this) The second
often join CA. In either case, it seems they would have to get a new rune.
