To comment on details of the wizard, best option would be to keep it
initially as versatile as possible, to test it. I for one can't be sure of my
choices, by not being a member of the target audience. Can't know for

and comment on it. (There was a witty name for them using reference
to Catholicism, but I guess even that came to be considered harmful. Sigh.)
