Or if you have access to the non-gloranthan RQ III book Land of the Ninja, use the elemental kami cults there as a basis for each elemental brotherhood ...

There's a lot more cults with Shamans than that. Pamalt, Kyger Litor, Eiritha, Waha, Hykim (Telmor, Basmol and Sofals), Malia, Thed, Bagog and Aldrya are also Shamanistic Cults in Gods of Glorantha.

Just have five brotherhoods, one for each element, and give each brotherhood an elemental control spell, an elemental blessing (such as see in dark for darkness) and an elemental curse (such as lighting bolt for Air).
