i'm still confused on this issue.
Under the Grazer Magic Keywords section it says: "All grazers have access to spirits from the Yu-Kargzant or La-ungariant traditions depending on gender."
Later under the Yu-Kargazant Tradition:Worshippers section it states: "Male Grazers. Only shamans have access to the spirits in this keyword, in addition to the spirits of the great spirits of this tradition described below."
The traditional spirits listed in the Yu-Kargazant tradition are: Ancestor Spirits, Fire Spirits, and Stallion Spirits. My question is do any males other than shamans have access to these spirits? Can other males other than shamans use fetishes with these spirits inhabiting them?
The two quotes listed above seems to conflict on these questions. I understand that riders have access to Hunter Spirits, and Warriors have access to Battle Spirits and Bravery Spirits. My question again is do they have access to Ancestor Spirits, Fire Spirits, and Stallion Spirits?
thanks for the help.
