Potentially the most powerful of all wizards, Chronomancers use magic to manipulate time itself. As the youngest branch of magic, it is less developed, and less understood than any of the others, and is thus potentially more dangerous. Chronomancers tend to be gamblers and risk-takers, those who prefer a quick path to power. Chronomancers have…
Elementalists are the most outwardly powerful type of wizard. Their magic is centred around controlling the four elements, usually in loud, explosive, and unsubtle ways. Their clothes tend to feature one bold colour, and they are more prone to flashy decorations than other wizards – facial tattoos are not uncommon. Most Elementalists, especially those that…
Enchanters are hands-on wizards, who work their magic by implanting it in objects or people. Many Enchanters are also craftsmen, such as carpenters or sculptors, who work their magic into the pieces they create. In appearance, Enchanters are often the least ‘wizardly’ looking of all spellcasters, being just as likely to carry craftsman’s tools as…
Some times taunted for being mere stage magicians, an experienced Illusionist can be a dangerous foe. Illusionists use magic to fool the senses, to cause confusion and fear, and to convince people of things that aren’t true. In dress, Illusionists are usually colourful, preferring bright, multi-coloured robes, cloaks and hats. Illusionists rarely wear weapons or…

They generally wear dark colours (most commonly black), and tend to have a sickly, unhealthy appearance. While necromancers are not necessarily evil, there are few that have delved deeply into…
Sigilists work magic through reading and writing. They are the masters of languages, both living and dead, and can see the magical patterns in writing of all types. Most famously, they are the writers of magical scrolls and books, which allow mystical energy to be saved within writing for use later. In appearance, Sigilists tend…
The subtle magic of a Soothsayer allows the wizard to expand his senses outside of his body, including through time itself. They can reach into the past to learn the secrets of history, or they can look into the future and try to catch a glimpse of things to come. There are very few young…
Summoners work their magic by opening doorways to different planes of existence. Usually this is to bring forth creatures from these other planes to use as servants, although there are other ways to use this power. It is perhaps worth mentioning that the term ‘demon’ refers to any being from another plane of existence. Demons…
Thaumaturges draw their magical powers from positive energy. Most, though not all, believe this energy comes from some form of deity. These wizards are healers and protectors, who often spend as much time on good works as they do on the study of magic. Thamaturges rarely openly carry any weapon other than a staff and…
