[MH] Replace RPM with Sorcery (Pyramid 3-63)

Having just read the latest issue of Pyramid, I am struck by the possibility of using Sorcery instead of RPM in Monster Hunters.

(Cue the torches and pitchforks! :) )

Granted, RPM is an awesome piece of work, and rightfully held in high regard. However, within the mechanical context of MH, which uses powers for Bioenhancement, Mysticism, and Psionic, RPM stands out as an egregious exception.

So, replace the Witch template with a Sorceror template? (Let's not use both; if RPM is to be retained then the whole discussion is moot.) Any other thoughts?
