I have never played - from the beginning - with the +1 in HTH applying to a wizard character. In my group, the term "fighter" was the most used generic term for a non-wizard, even though "hero" is the correct term in ITL. Probably, the usage came about because in Death Test and Death Test 2 non-wizard's are invariably referred to as "Fighters". In Tollenkar's Lair they were "thugs" and "bravos". We always just used Fighters and Wizards rather than Heroes and Wizards.
