Howdy -
I find this discussion rather bizarre. The Pelandans and Alkothi
definitely have deities of the air - whether they have sylphs is another
thing. Another way of looking at a sylph is simply that it is a Wind
Spirit, and perhaps in Peloria only the Orlanthi have the mythic conception
that their god rules a host of Wind Spirits.
>Excluding of course, Shargashi, who do have air powers and are terrifying
Um, I agree that the Alkothi are terrifying - but not because of air
>and the Southern Pelorians, who are pretty close to Orlanthi in many ways
Not pretty close to Orlanthi - are Orlanthi. Heck, for most of Gloranthan
(which tends to confirm the >general feeling that air powers are something
sensible Pelorians avoid),
powers. I think that perhaps their practice of cannibalism before the Dawn
or maybe their blood-thirsty rampages through Darjiin have more to do with
that?
(as Jeff has pointed out).
history the south Pelorian Orlanthi have had all the action.

No and yes. That Shargash=Vadrus is not completely untrue, but it is true
that Vadrus is destroyed.
