> I'm still not clear, for instance, about what personal magic heroquesters can weild. A heroquester who is Orlanth in the quest, should probably have the command over wind and lightning even though he may not have such in the mortal world. What happens if he does and Arkat, and goes exploring? Can he explore in his identity as Orlanth, or does he explore as Harald the Heroquester with only his personal magical talents?

A heroquester who is Orlanth in the quest ought to have affinities with the Air, Movement and Mastery runes, or he is going to make a pretty poor Orlanth. A heroquester must do as Orlanth did - but he uses his own abilities plus those of his companions and his supporters (such as his community).

So if Harald the Heroquester (with Darkness, Stasis and Truth) tries to be Orlanth in a heroquester, he is going to have some serious problems.
