I wanted to clarify what I said earlier.
The thing about casters is not a ding on this, the DF Shaman or other examples as much as it is a lamentation on how they work.
Shaman need strong social skills and dont command spirits as much as broker deals. Tough they do command minor spirits in a manner I would treat as Exorcism for healing in may cultures.
