>I have not been able to find any information on the Praxian magical

Probably doesn't exist.

Not sure there is a huge difference when you get down to it. I suspect either could work.
>(2) What kind of magic do they practice? I suppose the logical answer
is shamanism, but that makes them indistinguishable from other Praxian
magicians.
Well, if they are hero bands, they get the guardian's magic, so that already makes them different. (I would likely rule that common magic, but could still be spirit-based, of course.)
If they are a religion, it doesn't have to be "shamanism". Most religions in Glorantha are mixed (or so I've been given to understand) so you could make it a mix of whatever magic you wanted, really. LC
