Let me emphasize this - wizardry does not need faith or virtue or whatever, just knowledge and the requirements of the specific spell (which may impose specific taboos or requirements).

/// And the funny thing is those taboos or requirements may actually be useless. Much of it might be dressing that added up over the centuries, piled together by various sects. The True Sorcerer dismisses such dross and directly contemplates Pure Laws. These Laws do not care whether you puny mortal man eat arkatian oysters or do not bath. Your mind can grasp them or cannot.

In my idea, that's the main difference between wizards (members of a religious sect as the rokari) and sorcerers, who are working to understand the Laws without a fixed religious prism.
