A *new* perk specialized for magic might be in order though.

Ah! Akimbo from Gun Fu is what I couldn't rememb er the name of.

The player might be able to get by with touching friendlies with his elbow or something. He might not even need a Perk for that if he's already past the Gesture problem with Skill Level. "Laying on of hands" might be just stereotype.
