Gloranthan sorceror character creation

Just looking for advice on my interpretation of something in Glorantha the second age 2e here.

If anyone could help it would be appreciated.

Under the ducal noble background on page 194 one of the possible advanced skills is sorcery (noble family grimoire) i can't find a list of noble family grimoires anywhere, does this mean its one that requires making i.e. pick four sorcery spells or even that they gain one of teh established order of sorcery grimoires such as bardans book (i've picked that one becuase it looks like it will be very popular amongst adventurers)

also if a character with that background then takes the sorceror profession they gain sorcery ( jrusteli grimoire). which means one of the established grimoires ( bardans book again)

If the noble grimoire is a made up one or is listed somehwere and I've missed it does this mean they start with two sorcery grimoires and potentially 10 or 12 spells.

IIf however that basically means they take an established oprders grimoire twice they get +10% - correct?

Any advice, differing interprestion, flames or just see page so and so of book so and so would be welcomed.

Noble Family Grimoire would be of the pick-four-spells variety. To get Bardan's Book, you need to join the Bardan's Book cult (and, be aware that Cults of Glorantha has split Bardan's Book into two separate grimoires, so if your GM is using that book, she might ask you to pick one of those two instead of the unified version presented in the Glorantha Core Rules).

Yes.

I don't think that's an option.

p.s. You'll get more answers if you post in the Runequest forum than here in Rulesmasters.
