and that word is a heinous insult. In my religious tradition, being
"warlocked" is equivalent to being excommunicated or disfellowshipped.
I realize that we are discussing a rolegaming world. However, some connection
with reality must be maintained. You would not have a mage introduce himself
as a "heretic" or a "blasphemer" -- or perhaps =you= would. In my
game world,
there are links maintained to reality, and I and my players avoid insulting
RL religions. The proper name for a male magician is magician, and if they are
following a NeoPagan tradition, the proper term is witch, regardless of gender.
I suggest you do a bit more research.
