| rdfs:comment | - Red Wizards of Thay is an organization gathering all magic users of Thay, serving also as a ruling caste in that magocracy. Red Wizards are present in nearly every Faerûn polity, both secretly and openly in some nations. In the first Baldur's Gate, a small group of them can be found in Spider Wood. Also, in both Baldur's Gate games, the Red Wizard Edwin Odesseiron may be recruited as a companion.
- The Red Wizards, formerly known as the Red Wizards of Thay before a coup led by Szass Tam, are an organization of wizards in Faerûn. During their height of power, the Red Wizards were the notorious and nefarious spellcasting ruling class of the inhospitable but well-inhabited country of Thay. Slavers, demonologists, and magical experimenters, the Red Wizards were much feared by most of Faerûn. They constantly schemed to bring down their neighboring nations of Rashemen, where they were thwarted by the equally famed magicians the Witches of Rashemen; Aglarond, where they were turned back by the Simbul of the Seven Sisters; and Mulhorand, where the people of Thay first emigrated from.

| abstract | - The Red Wizards, formerly known as the Red Wizards of Thay before a coup led by Szass Tam, are an organization of wizards in Faerûn. During their height of power, the Red Wizards were the notorious and nefarious spellcasting ruling class of the inhospitable but well-inhabited country of Thay. Slavers, demonologists, and magical experimenters, the Red Wizards were much feared by most of Faerûn. They constantly schemed to bring down their neighboring nations of Rashemen, where they were thwarted by the equally famed magicians the Witches of Rashemen; Aglarond, where they were turned back by the Simbul of the Seven Sisters; and Mulhorand, where the people of Thay first emigrated from. The leaders of the Red Wizards, and of Thay, were the eight zulkirs, each for a different school of magic. Chief amongst these, and, indeed, among all Red Wizards was Szass Tam, a powerful archmage and feared lich and now the ruler of Thay and sworn enemy of the Red Wizards who escaped him. Since Szass Tam's takeover, the Red Wizards have transformed enormously, becoming a loosely organized chain of merchant enclaves who specialized in procuring magical items.
- Red Wizards of Thay is an organization gathering all magic users of Thay, serving also as a ruling caste in that magocracy. Red Wizards are present in nearly every Faerûn polity, both secretly and openly in some nations. In the first Baldur's Gate, a small group of them can be found in Spider Wood. Also, in both Baldur's Gate games, the Red Wizard Edwin Odesseiron may be recruited as a companion. In both Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition and Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition, you will find a group of Red Wizards attempting to kill and then dissect another potential companion Neera in order to investigate the cause of wild magic.
