You know, I started exploring Glorantha some 25 years ago. At that time (and even later with KoDP or Hero Wars supplement), Sartarite / Orlanthi were often depicted with a celt / nordic / germanic tint and this is how I have been used to know them. So S:KoH or not, my Sartarite are fair skinned and blonde hair and blue eyes are an option.

Sorry, I cannot just change my perception of them just now after all these years. MGV then.

Blonde Orlanthi are very rare. The only one I can think of was Erilindia, who was part Dara Happan.

Red hair is more common.

Yep. That's a sign of some strong magic, if I recall. Then there was the EWF dynasty with purple eyes...
