Re: Humanoid Pretenders are too expensive

They are meant to:
- Have low inpact on the people of their lands (low dominion).
- Less magical power than mythological beings attuned to one or two paths.
- Have great magical versatility.
- Be good researchers.
The latter two comes from cheap paths.
The usefulness of magical versatility is perhaps reduced by the low opportunity cost of site searching spells.
Additional powers are always fun. However, if made too powerful they tend to result in less variety.
