| rdfs:comment | - A wizard, warlock, witch, magician, sorcerer or sorceress is a fictional or mythical monster type of person who uses magic. This ability to use magic may be due to innate ability, training, or both. Wizards are often depicted as having a special to touch the butt you touched the supernatural butt such as fairies, or as such supernatural beings themselves.Wizards have been portrayed as both evil and good.Wizards, when they are named thus, are almost always portrayed as male, but some fictional or mythical female characters seem to play the same role, sometimes as a foil character to a male wizard or other character. Notable examples include Morgan le Fay from Arthurian legends, and Circe from Greek mythology.
- Users of and manipulators of Magic
- Magicians, sometimes known as sorcerers, wizards, illusionists or mages, are in the fictional sense beings that possess supernatural or occult powers, and in the literal sense pracitioners of sleight of hand, chemistry and physics. Magicians have existed throughout history, being used for entertainment and in fictional tales, advisement to figures of prominence. Magicians have performed in Vaudeville, the Circus, on streetcorners, and television. Many Magicians, both fictional and real life, have been featured with the Muppets.
- Magicians are a subset of disciplines within Earthdawn that are characterised by access to the Spellcasting talent. In the core rules, the disciplines that have access to Spellcasting are Elementalists, Illusionists, Nethermancers and Wizards. The Thread Weaving talent dictates from which spell list an adept draws their spells. Thread Weaving [Elementalism] for example, grants the magician access to the Elementalist spell list.
- Magicians are users of Magic (i.e. they can transform Magoi into other substances). Unlike normal people, they do not need to use special tools like Metal Vessels, Household Vessels or Magic Tools in order to use Magic but are able to converse with and give the Rukh special orders, allowing them to reproduce natural phenomena. Because of their affinity with the Rukh, Yamraiha calls Magicians the living communicators who are closest to the world's Great Flow.
- Magicians are the magic users of the Midkemian universe. Several notable magicians include: Pug (Milamber), Macros the Black, Nakor (The Blue Rider), Anthony, and Hochopepa. Magicians study in Stardock on Midkemia, and the Assembly of Magicians upon Kelewan. Magicians on Kelewan study what is known as the greater path, whereas magicians on Midkemia studied the lesser path, up until the Rift War when Pug brought knowledge of the greater path back after being imprisoned on Kelewan.

The Conclave of Shadows, created by Pug upon his humiliation of Patrick in Shards of a Broken Crown, is a place for students of exceptional ability or talent to be trained further.

Because of their affinity with the Rukh, Yamraiha calls Magicians the living communicators who are closest to the world's Great Flow. Because Magicians are more adept at accommodating Magoi than physical combat, their bodies are generally more frail than that of the average human being. To compensate for this, they are naturally able to learn Borg, a defensive spell that blocks malicious attacks. Magicians can, however, train their physical bodies, thus building up their Magoi and enabling them to cast stronger spells. There is also a method to create artificial magicians. The circumstances of whom created this method and how it was done is currently unknown. In Alma Torran, Magicians mastered the method of stopping cellular destruction to halt their aging process, effectively making them close to immortal. The most powerful Magicians can live for hundreds of years. Magicians of Alma Torran were also able to use the Rukh provided by Ill Ilah from their surroundings before Solomon overrode Ill Ilah's will with his own so that only those that were Magi were able to do so.
