  1. The answer from the internet seems to be:  "the specific outcome would depend on the terms negotiated between the parties involved and the prevailing customs and practices of the time."

    Seems like it would depend if the party is ok with having Wolf Pirates upset at them.

    Big agree on the defence mechanism. I much prefer it to the dodge process.

    Although I prefer Dodge over Defense, I do agree that Dodge has significant issues, especially in RQ3. Overall in my opinion warriors Dodge, soldiers use Defense..

    From memory he was fine with the RQ3 rules (other than sorcery) up until characters started to Heroquest- that was the point where he was never able to create cohesive rules that meshed with RQ3 while enabling Heroquesting

    We are still in the same place with HeroQuests.

    Two onlookers watching a Brown Sage and a Sage debating the same lore skill would be hard pressed to tell them apart. 

    And the only thing I really care about in terms of the current game, do they have access to the same Rune Spells.

    There is nothing wrong with a Deity having different spells in different places. It can be explained by the myths being remembered differently, or by different myths having prominence.

    Generally its not a problem, but what happens when a Buserian initiate walks into a Lhankor Mhy temple. Can he sacrifice for a spells which he normally not have access to? Would he use the same Worship. I am assuming yes to both.

    Ward against Weapons makes their weapon a not-weapon.

    Semantics. It's only unimportant if you lack a Law rune.

    Ward of Weapons relies on the Death Rune, not Law. Shield runes depend on the cult. Both create a magical field which protects from physical damage, but with a different mechanic. Thus, Criticals ignore both. Semantics.

    Do these spells help to pick an individual out of a jumbled crowd, even without line of sight?
    If there are 8 different people partially or wholly blocking your LOS to the target, don't their aura's obscure your target's aura, even as their bodies obscure the target's body?

    They show you auras and you can target an iduvidual one, which may or may not be the person you want to target.

    Perhaps some sort of a minor spirit cult.

    Rotus Penpusher

    Dark custodian.

    Rotus was smart. Very smart. Too smart for a Trollkin. That never ends well for one of its kind. From most of his kin aspire to stay out of the next serving of Kin soup, or as ball of the next Trollball championship. Rotus wanted more than to survive. He learned how to count and was taken on by an Argar Argar to care for his good. This lead Rotus to start a career of bookkeeping and janitorial duties. A loyal companion, Rotus was never much of a merchant, but no one was better of tracking and making sure the even the last Bolg was accounted for. Even after death he maintain his now everlasting vigil for bookworms and arithmetical errors.  

    Rotus will his rune spell, as a Hero Cult, and bookkeeping skills to any pursuing the safe route of Maintenance.

  9. My issue at the moment is that Daka Fal grants all Common divine to his worshippers. Does that mean that worship of ones clan's ancestors gives the sme access?

    What about a merman, can he worship Magasta as an ancestor and gain these spells as well?
