Not IMO. These are actually separate entities and "worlds", despite what the God Learners thought. If you're following an aldryami HeroQuest, and meet an aldryami god/spirit, that's whom you meet.
OTOH Arroin is a very ancient entity, and may IYG behave as suggested by the God Learners.

Yes.

Wrong list.

Greg. Yeah, these manifestations are derived from their otherworldly natures. Wrong list, again.

God Learners !!!
Burn them !!!

Oh, well in that case, let them be God Learners, and everything you suggest is true ... ;-)

Not according to the GLs. He, like his mother, transcends the usual cultural barriers. Properly, he belongs to the Gloranthan Court pantheon.

I once suggested that Arroin is currently HeroQuesting in the Green Age, and that if you can reach him there, you can reach his magic. Not quite true, IMO, but the general suggestion might be helpful ...

Unless you cheat, Arroini are very, very difficult to play.
Their pacifism would prevent them joining any Hero Band. They are _completely_ passive/peaceful IMO.
