I don't know whether Ikadz is featured in Orlanthi mythology (under a name or another). I read the Carmanians have their own suit of Lightbringers but it's been a while they've been a bit old-fashioned now that the Red Goddess has ascended into the sky. I don't know who they are.

Well, a real brave hero who's willing to sacrifice for the welfare of his tribe (or maybe the guy in the clan who draws the green apple out of the barrel) (or a player who's fed up with his character).

Uh, probably. In any case i suppose (and hope) Storm Tribe will give a little more clues about Flesh Man's nature and the Lightbringers as a whole in the 'new' Heortling mythology.
