The Orlanthi tradition is not a purely theist tradition, but an Orlanthi priest is a theist priest and invokes magic in a theist fashion. Surely he has no shamanic powers as a result of his status as a priest of Orlanth, and connot become a shaman?

The writeup of Aeolianism that I have seen seperates out Theist and Sorecrous elements of the religion. Aeolian priests cannot also become Sorecerers, and vice versa.
