Real magic is visible in Glorantha, so how can charlatans keep up appearances? This isn't like Earth, where placebo effects plus the brain's ingrown blind spot for statistics keeps all manner of quacks rolling indefinitely.

I think I am actually dealing with a charlatan in one game I'm in -- I'd like to get an idea of some clues he might drop.
