How about "Orlanthi" ? FWIW, The digest is impenetrable enough for new guys without Gloranthan HW acronyms on top of Internet acronyms, IMNSHO.
The Digest (in whatever form it moves to) has the depth and helpful attitude necessary to help Hero Wars' new audience really discover Glorantha. But it can be hard going. I've been a fan since RQ 1, and there's stuff in almost every Digest that is either way to detailed for me to care about, or far to convoluted an argument for me to use.
I don't mean to stifle any discussions (clearly many of you find them interesting--at least I hope so) but I think it would be a Good Thing for all contributors to the digest to recall that someone trying to read what you wrote may:
While we're talking about typing, I just ran across my very favorite typo in the Glorantha book. This may be old news to most of you. At the end of some deep sea god's description there's this phrase:
[I sure hope his rune looks like a trilobyte]
Happy Holidays everyone.
