The one that has always tickled me in our Sartar campaign is the dog-loving Greydog clan of the Lismelder tribe, right next door to the alynx-loving Orlmarthing of the Colymar. So all the _Thunder Rebels_ stuff about Yinkin the alynx god being the quintessentially loyal companion of Orlanth goes right out the window in the space of a few kilometers.
