Alex Ferguson asked:
> Which aspect/subcult of Orlanth do (male) clan chiefs belong to?
Rex. Plus whatever other "aspect" you think they joined at initiation into adulthood.
> Which subcult do _female_ clan chiefs belong to?
> Is there a "Thunderous" aspect of Vinga? Or do women join O.T. directly?
Rex. And probably some other as well (Vinga or Thunderous would be my guess).
Since in the High Council scenario as published in Wyrms Footprints, Kallyr was
the Thunderous rep. on the Council, I think women can join Thunderous, myself.
Vinga has a few Storm powers, but is supposed to be game-equivalent to Orlanth
Adventurous.
Of course, what women *can't* join is the overall Orlanth cult that includes his
sacred progenitive powers. They just don't have the equipment. And finding a
method of joining *just* Thunderous can be tricky. It can be done, obviously, it isn't
like trying to join just the Death aspect of Humakt and missing out on the Truth side,
but it isn't normal.
