Richard :

> Voriof must be a lot more complicated than one half of Hansel and Gretel too-- not least because there have been times when he has been referred to as a shepherd-boy, and other times when he has been portrayed as a sheep. 

Voriof is fun !!! :)

He's the boy, he identifies with the herd, he's the young wannabe warrior, he's the youngest son of the youngest son, he's an independent god in his own right, and he's a Survivor.

> Are the hints that Voriof's parentage is debatable still part of current Gloranthan thinking too, or am I just hopelessly out of date here?

It's debatable.

> To me, the sheep/shepherd ambiguity (if it is still current) seems a lot more Helering than Orlanthi ...

YGWV but I think that Voriof is a young Storm god, isn't he ? ;)
