I don't know. looks like a real 'utilitarian' cult to me. Shoal-Call, Scales-Scratching, Dolphin Milking :)
I suppose a player wouldn't choose her any more than a typical player would choose Uralda (hell, or Goose Girl). But it helps give reality to a submarine society and if I can obtain suspension of disbelief for 5' as I describe the tuna shoals being regrouped for the night, the guards on their seahorses or a Ludoch slipping the hood from his hunting squid, I 'm playing my part.

Yes yes yes, I agree.
I imagine he must have a sub-cult (Aspect ?) related to the Hell Seas or the Hole. With a Death Affinity [Gone With the Current, Soul Stealing, Never Come Back, Drowning Whirlpool, No One Will Hear You Scream] And maybe a Sea Monster affinity [Call the Kraken, Raise the Seas, Really Big One, Horror from the Deep, Death From Below (isn't that movies titles ?)]
> WACHAZA
> Combat (death rune)
> Sea (water rune)
> Wrath (destruction rune, perhaps?)
Disorder ?
Anyway, That's quite enough to animate some NPCs. Thanks.

I have that in mind, but on the other hand it's hard not to ask certain
questions :p
Of course, as a Narrator, I only need some words on a sheet, (and that's
why I mostly use 'affinities' for NPC : much easier to use).
As a gloranthophile now...
