What do naturally red-headed Orlanthi women do, bleach or dye their hair to avoid being confused with their Vingan sisters? Or is "Vingan Red" such a distinctive color that no mistake is possible? From some of the illustrations in ToRM and other places it seems that some Orthanthi men spike their hair with lime. Do some Vingans do likewise, only in flaming red? Perhaps Babeester Gor axemaidens dye their hair dead white.
Is the worship of Vinga found among all Orlanthi or it mainly a DP Orlanthi practice?
