[QUOTE="MoonSong, post: 6571502, member: 6689464"] Granted, but I get the feeling a sorcerer wouldn't get that kind of training, or a training as we understand it. If it is nature, then it all must come naturally. No old mentor to tell you the steps, but neither they being an exact science. A sorcerer training with magic would be one of two options: 1) the magic is too powerful and extensive training is required to control it. (Good for wild mages, but not exactly good for all) 2) the magic is more a matter of discovery and self experimentation, you aren't born able to cast a fireball, but that isn't because you need to learn the exact steps with precision, you just need your power to grow and figure it out. It is like with yoga, many people take time and extensive training to form a perfect lotus flower or put their legs behind their head, I can do both just because of raw flexibility all it took me was figuring out I could. This second option leaves lots of free time to do other things like learning a craft or how to use that spear, because maybe you lack the coding and the personality to develop killing spells.
