Can I get this again, even more clearly, if you're serious about it?
Because it's quite far off from how I perceived the tricky guys, R-W as
well as gloranthan. Even if there are no good tricksters, I thought
that there were still scope for degrees. Som tricksters, like Eurmal,
has a kinda leash, and anyways do 25 % good stuff on their own. Other
tricksters are nothing but bad news. Did Carrot Man ever do anyone a
good turn? Does Daak the Stranger (ILHB1 p39) have a single redeeming
feature?
I would have guessed that Gloranthan tricksters varied a lot in their
malignancy. Real World comparison: Loki, to Coyote, to Hermes. I would
also have guessed that pelorian tricksters, generally, would be more
rotten, as a consequence of the solar guys' anal retentive obsession
with order, no?
