RE: Levels of PCs
One good way to do this is to put a limit on the number of mages on the
continent and stick to it! If your PC mage dies off, you're not going to
get another one. Henchman/lieutenant mages should be even more rare.
If someone really wants to do magic, they can always opt to be a priest
of Ruornil too. This limits the wizardly power the PC has; even then,
priests are only about twice as common as mages. Let's face it -- most
people with PC level capabilities are going to be warriors.
