Among all Glorantha gamers the terms Yelmic and Solar often tend to mean somebody with a rod up their butt.
Orlanthi are mercurial and violent. But they are also open and passionate. For many the easiest to identify with.
Yelmalians suffer the rod syndrome, but are also awarded a certain kind of admiration. They have that straight-backed spartan thing going for them. Honorable certainly, but crazy as anything. (think aamish)
Lunars of course are sly and treacherous. (Or civilized and crafty, if you like them)
