between Kyger Litor and the Man Rune (Grandfather Mortal?). How would you go about divesting yourself of all the genetic heritage you derive from your mother? Ok in Glorantha it's more a mythic rather than scientific problem, but still sheddign half of what makes you what you are is going to end up with quite a mess.

I don't relay see what the bopinions of humans have to do with this either. Even if a human population adopted an Aldryami into their comunity and accepted it as one of them that wouldn't change the fact that it's still a plant. There's a lost of objective reality about the nature of a being (in a Gloranthan Context) that can't just be wished away.
