I dithered a little over which list to address this to, but it's more of a "how does Glorantha work these days?" than a "what are the numbers?", so it goes...

... It does somewhat, yes. I'm querying whether one *can* cast a feat on another person, or group of people. You're now raising the further question of...
Charles Corrigan ... Thanks, nice reference. ... Hmm... it seems to me that *he* was moving *them*, he was not giving them to ability to Leap themselves. If ...
... Having read it again, I find mention of "His friend Berra, the blue-haired Vingan". Which sounds fascinating! Blue hair implies Water tribe in some way,...
... I think you might well be splitting hairs here... :-) On the other hand, there might be a mechanic of "You must either be touching the recipient or you can...

... It's funny, I was just thinking about that. I would hesitate to go as far as suggesting that "she" might be a "he" - it just get too complicated. Other...

... And the best place to look for this is at <http://lokarnos.com/article.pl?sid=04/02/10/1746224> BTW, I was not completely correct - many Heortlings have...
... What I meant by casting feats wasn't using your magic on someone else, like the healing example. There the person doing to magic is still the healer. It's...
... That's my impression too. And I think that it does make sense to say that a Vingan could take others (with the penalties) but not simply grant someone...
... ability for 'clan level' characters and 10w2-10w3 is the best ability for 'tribe/nation level' characters and so on - but that's at best a partial picture,...
... To clarify my (possibly extreme) position, I do not think that it it is possible to give someone else the ability to cast "Run on Treetops". But I do think...
I think this is the right list to use, Jane! The reason for that is, as others have suggested, this is not so much a rules as Gloranthalogical question. ...
... Oh yeah, very old school. Lotsa treasure hunting adventurers, lotsa bars (mostly run by retired treasure hunting adventurers...) but also some nice stuff...
... So you have to be there, casting the spell that lets them do it? Whereas Spell Trading would let them do it themselves in a week's time? Sounds to me like...
... Yes, but... Mechanically, totally. But in world, there may be mental or moral blocks on this kind of Lunar/Meldek/Foreign/Dragon/God Learner/choose insult...
... Oh, totally agreed. But I wanted to sort out whether it's possible at all before diving into the question of how people feel about it. Jane Williams ...
... That sounds good to me. Vingans do *dye* their hair red, after all, no matter what colour it is to start with. So we need a Vingan reason for it to be...
... Can we assume that there is a Lunar variety of common magic, then? That is--If Rurik concentrates in theism, he can use common feats, but not common...
Mark, Roderick or Greg are best suited to answer these queries; not because I haven't a clue (or at least I hope not), but because as they are intimately...
... Woad is magical armour-paint. So why would a vingan need to armour her head? I imagine that female warriors don't like to mess their hair up wearing...
... You know I always thought of spell trading as an artificial game construct and not particularly Gloranthan. I'd bet a chocolate biscuit that Greg never...
