Very useful thought. I am not sure if the wyter stays with the clan the entire way. There's rumor/discussion that if you go from a War Clan to a Peace Clan, you loose the old wyter permanently.

But, you can use the questionaire to find out some powers - and some of the blessings might be about to 'go-away' as the heroquests that generated them were preformed some time in the past. A blessing's duration is dependant on how successful the questers were.

"Your father went to the Berry King and brought us back the Everful Basket blessing when he was your age. The King took it back last Sacred time. Could you and your young friends go and get it back?"
