Yes, that's essentially what I had in mind, things starting to get dark (in a terrifying way).

I'm sure they are -- I was about to say this myself since I dredged up a vague memory of Greg saying this.
I believe one person should be in charge of collecting them. (Apparently Nils has volunteered).
I propose that the collector collect *all* suggestions -- there's no need to decide just what Sunset Leap does, for this purpose any interpretation is valid. Then perhaps Issaries can appoint someone to strike out the "*that's* not what I meant" cases (which I suspect will be few).
I think the format should be much as it is in the keyword, with short explanations:
Movement: Burst of speed (augments Running), ... Sunset Leap (jump great distances, penalty unless westward).
[In the "..." by the way are several feats that seem entirely self-explanatory to me (Lift Objects with Wind).]
I don't want this list to have all the cool story snippets people are writing, because I want a short, useful list. Maybe the stories (or myths) could be a *separate* list which could be linked to.

But where does Mastakos come in? This is Orlanth's feat, after all.
