> I don't think full Elmali tribes exist, except maybe in Esrolia
You are probably right. According to BA, however, the king of the Aranwyth Tribe is a devotee of Elmal Rex. This means nothing in it self, but according to an ancient post by Roderick Robertson, the tribe's claim to fame is that they are "horse traders and Elmal worshippers." This made me assume (perhaps incorrectly) that Elmal is an important deity in the tribe, worshipped by a sizeable portion of the male population.
If anybody is interested, here are the estimates I use in my game.
FEMALE
Ernalda 85%
Vinga 3%
Heler 3%
Odayla 2%
Yinkin 2%
Other (incl. Redalda Elmal, Chalana Arroy, Issaries) 5%

You have a valid point. I might have to reconsider the size of the Heler cult (above).
