Jeff Richard assumes that Eurmali are not common in heortling society or rings:

I don´t agree with the "not so common".
"Barbaraian Adventures" page 14:
The Lightbringer Ring
"Many Heortlings use the Lightbringer Ring, where each position corrosponds to one of the Lightbringers. The structure is less varied than the Traditional Ring, with only one position open to local interpretation."
The Lightbringer Ring is used often, as i interpret the above text correctly, and it contains the position of an Eurmali.
When the Traditional Ring is the most common, i see the Lightbringer Ring as second in that line. That makes it not uncommon at all. So there are a LOT of clans that use a Lightbringer Ring, and have therefore an Eurmali in their lines (hopefully bonded).
Or is there a chance that somebody becomes temporaly an Eurmali only for the success of the Clan Ring?
