David Cake writes about the Six Winds:

 According to Pentan interpretation (see Genertela Book p.64) the Four "earthly" winds are

West King Wind -- Orlanth
North War Wind -- Humakt
South Rage Wind -- Storm Bull
East Sting Wind -- Gagarth

 I don't know where Gagarth = Upper Wind goes in this picture, though, so I might be drawing false conclusions. As for Hellwind and the Lower Wind, in the RQ CON II book, on p.86, reference is made to the Lower Wind being the Hellroar. Personally I think that the Lower Wind is all that is bad and evil, perhaps Vadrus???

 According to Troll Pak, Arkat HeroQuester stole the secrets of sorcery from the Brithini in the First Age. Normally, most sorcerors in Troll society join the cult of Arkat IMHO. If you do so then, contrary to the normal roolz, you can occupy two "rune levels", in other words be a rune lord/priest and a sorceror. I don't believe, though, that you must be a member of the cult of Arkat to be a sorceror.  I'd say that a character who rolls the profession sorceror is immediatley an initiate of Kyger Litor, and also has the extended option of joining Arkat.
