First, Graath said he'd played four villagers. I said
who were they, I'm curious. I'm not sure why that's
"calling Graatch out."

Why is it better to be vulnerable to a class rather
than to a division of the village? Think how many
class/cabal combos are vulnerable to scourage. If
it goes through you lose about 15 strength and could
be blind. That's pretty nasty. It takes a good deal
of armor to overcome 15 strength loss, and if you took
the trouble to get enough to counter that, you're not
exactly decked in save spell. One can only guess how
many people would be willing to point out that they are
suddenly vulnerable to any mage that joins masters.

I won't be playing a hero invoker. I wouldn't play a
master and a rager at the same time. It's too hard not
to abuse it. I feel bad killing people I might equip the
next day, or trying to decide if I know to check x location
for someone because I grouped with them in another form or
such things.

If I had to play a mage class, I would play an invoker. They
have spells that can take advantage of just about every race
vulnerability. Could I kill a berserking rager half the time?
No. Should I be able to? No. Read the long post if you care
to know why I think that. I think you even posted that you've
never been an invoker before. I'm sure you'll learn things as
you go.

I'll guarantee you that I'd die less often and kill more people
than I ever have as a villager if I played one. Which isn't such
a bad trade.
