The only concern that I'd have would be how balanced this would be. First,
you'd want to charge at least the HP cost for a fetish of the appropriate
power. Then the question is whether or not you'd be putting out
practitioners by sorta stealing their thunder without having the limits of
being a practitioner. Hard to say, but I might put a surcharge on such an
ability. To make sure that the player understands how special the ability
is.
