Umm... I had a look through ILHB2 and found a couple of others.
Arimtasus, the Red Manimat, is either a lunar immortal, or a majestic
spirit of the SurEnslib tradition. Or both, I guess.
Blaskarth, steed of the goddess, is also Huvaran, death of the
Rinliddi?
Chaghatishi Moon-Bow is a lunar immortal, but with special magic that
allows you to interact with spirits and the animistic otherworld
without penalties.
Makabaeus place on the otherside is both an essence node on the Moon,
and a Makabaeus node on the Saint Plane, apparently.
Undrendrum, the Red Falcon, is both a lunar immortal, and a member of
the Rinliddi pantheon.
So, Jakaleel isn't all that exceptional, is she? In fact, it seems that
there are hardly any ethnical pantheon within lunar empire, that
doesn't have go-between, compromising the old ways and the new lunar
way.
Me:

Okay, sorry that I was unclear. I knew that. What I meant, was "Can
they go to the sorcerous nodes without the Alien Modifier?" Apparently
not. (Except for those Makabaeus guys?)
I have to say though, that to me it still seems reasonable that an
senior Cerisian would have less trouble navigating the nodes, than an
(equally senior) follower of HonEel. I dunno... maybe they get an equal
-W penalty, and then finds that all the HonEel abilities are
meaningless, but many of the Cerisian abilities applies.
Me:
>> Hon-Eel and Deezola seems to have a very special relationship >> with earth religion. Do their priestesses get alien world penalties >> when doing earthy theistic stuff?
Sorry again for unprecise wording.
Is "the ability to enter earth-related theistic otherworlds without
penalties, as if they actually belonged there", a special power that
their ordinates can heroquest for?
No, strike that. Is the ability to properly/legitimately/fully belong
to a specific earthy theistic otherword, a special power that their
ordinates can hq for?
Cheers,
