A recent discussion about Paresh's account in _Teckla_ makes me wonder: What keeps a Teckla sorcerer from changing his appearance to that of a noble house? I assume this would be against the law, of course, and there might be social mechanisms to overcome - secret handshakes, subtle clues, checks against birth records. But note that the Musketeers managed ok in _TPG_ working under assumed names. I should think (based on direct evidence anyway) that Paresh could professionally pretend to be a Chreotha without great difficulty.
