I do like that each of them, if left on the ring long enough, can cause trouble. They go hunting elves, chase off to fight a chaos monster, get the women mad at the men, kill a neighboring cheiftan's children, or whatever. I've actually taken very skilled leaders off my ring when I think certain things are too sensitive to leave them in place. It really is one of those really nice finicky bits of the game that help elevate to such a high level.
