They got quite powerful magic out of it, somehow.

It did that all right. Well, enough magical powers to dominate everyone else in sight, anyway. He was trying to father a Divine Child, too. It hadn't occurred to me that he'd invented the entire cult himself and knew perfectly well it was a fake, but could be. If we make their magic magical widget something he'd found in the Rubble and didn't understand properly, that might well work.
The cultists did register as Chaotic, but possibly that's a result of their actions,not vice versa? ISTR someone once saying that enough of acting like a broo turns you into a broo, so maybe. (Deliberately not going into details on the "family" list!)

What, not even in Glorantha? I know it's the norm over here, but there, is it even possible?
