Actually, if you're going to worship the Thunderbrothers as a common religion, I think that's part of the point: you *haven't* distinguished yourself from the common mass of warriors of the fyrd. Somene who's going to distinguish themselves tends to specialize a little more and worship Starval the Weaponthane or Humakt or Destor (etc, etc, etc).
