Only if you think KoS *really* mixed people up. "Argrath" has four tricksters listed, three of them called Elusu. Kallyr has none mentioned, though since she did an (S)LBQ, obviously she had one.
Another theory would be that Tricksters pick themselves a new name, and "Elusu" is a standard one.

Good question. I should imagine a lot of people wonder that, including her.

It sounds good. Personally I don't see why a Rigsdal magical Widget should have any effect on Tricksters at all, but it sounds good. Still, re-reading sources in search of some justification, I find that the Humakt sub-cult of Rigsdal (ST p104) includes a myth where Rigsdal was the one who saw through Eurmals' illusion and spotted him sneaking onto the tula. Maybe her Rigsdal magic lets her see what he's up to faster than most people with Tricksters would manage, so she can keep him under tighter than normal control?
