A magician is a magic/religious specialist, which most people in Glorantha are
not. Most Americans can drive; many can change their oil and radiator fluid,
some can change sparkplugs, only a few can swap transmissions or rebuild an
engine. The magicians would be in the last category, if Gloranthans were
Americans and magic was automobile maintenance. The average Gloranthan uses
magic but has better things to do than peek into the Other Worlds, learn
esoteric myths, master complex rituals, and talk to spirits, daimons, essences,
etc. Good thing, too, or everyone would starve.
