The Orlanthi thinking something doesn't necessarily prove its a universal rule... although in this case, I'm pretty sure they're right. I can't think of a clear exception, at any rate.

This I find difficult to believe, though. While there are trolls that use wizardry, I have had a hard time associating it with Zorak Zoran. Furthermore, it almost seems to be Orlanthi thinking to say "it's bad magic, so it must be wizardry". If anything, I would have thought it was animism, stuffing animating spirits into the bodies of the dead. Certainly there *are* wizards who raise the dead (Ulfrathgar in LotW1 being an example), but I don't see ZZ as one of them.
