At some level it does. Just as a vampire sacrifices his immortal
soul for worldly power, evil mystics do likewise with their
transcendent understanding. Whether players should give up their
character is really determined by the campaign that one follows.

I don't think so. One could easily change schools before enlightenment
(in HW terms, when the Hero can learn powers) and I do know that
Daruda did a Gautama and sampled from many such schools until he
discovered the Cosmic Dragon. Yet nobody considers him an Antigod

Ask away.
