Orlanth The Leader
Orlanth Chieftain and King
Orlanth is the king of the gods. While others may dispute
this, the Storm Tribe accepts him as their leader. During
the Storm Age, Orlanth formed the first Tribal Ring,
bringing together wise counsellors to help him lead.
When threatened by the Bad Emperor, Ernalda suggested
he build a tribe with him as king. With the strength of all
the Storm Clans supporting him, the Emperor’s Slaves
could never conquer the Storm People.
Without Chieftains and Kings, there is no society other
than squabbling clans. In one form or another, Orlanth
the Leader is found. However, the Orlanthi do not follow
their leaders blindly. Without the support of the clan’s
warriors, the loom-women, the carls and farmers, a King
is merely an Emperor and his rule is without justice.
Orlanthi leaders are expected to embody Orlanth’s
virtues of hospitality, piety, bravery, action and justice.
He is depicted as a bearded warrior with the crown of
kingship and the staff of justice. Sacrifices to Chieftain
Orlanth include black bulls, rams and the banners of
defeated foes. Shrines to Orlanth the Leader are found in
the largest temples to Orlanth and they teach one of his
three special spells. Shrines at sacred places to Orlanthi
