I agree, patrons are very useful. One of my players characters is a
Praxian Sable rider who is now living in my Orlanthi clan (a RQ carry
over character). She now worships Vinga and her patron is the clan
chief. This was only allowed because myself and the player sat down
and discussed it and from my point of view it gives me some nice
scenario hooks I can use.
