While there is always an official rule most wizards are MarriedToTheJob or find magic literally BetterThanSex anyway (and a few outright ignore the celibacy rule with no issues), for Cutwell just being ''attracted'' to a woman renders him completely magically impotent.

* DeagedInDeath: Death's apprentice Mort is sent to reap the soul of a very old Witch, who knows he's coming. He meets a hunched-up old lady in her nineties who can barely walk unaided. After he frees her soul from her body, he watches as she spins the years away until she appears as she did in her late teens; before crossing over, she points out that not having a body any more, she can present herself as of any age she chooses.

* WizardWorkshop: The workshop of Cutwell, a wizard of the second-rate variety, includes all the usual decorations but with the caveat that most of them are decidedly shabby, in disrepair, and otherwise indicative of his unimpressive status.
-->''There was a large crystal ball with a crack in it, an astrolabe with several bits missing, a rather scuffed octogram on the floor, and a stuffed alligator hanging from the ceiling. A stuffed alligator is absolutely standard equipment in any properly-run magical establishment. This one looked as though it hadn't enjoyed it much.''
