It is written that knowledge is a well that has no bottom, and that Lore is a stormy sea without a farther shore. Magi begin their lives by devoting themselves to the study of anything and everything, and soon come to the conclusion that there is far more to know than they can ever hope to learn, even without True Death to bring their study to an end. Some are drawn by the lure of Power, and learn to channel the massive powers of the Tapestry. Others tap into strange powers within themselves and become Warlocks. There are other Magi, however, who continue their observations of the physical World and devote themselves to unlocking ancient secrets of Arcane Lore.
The Wizard is an arcane master undiluted by tenets of greed, faith, natural law, or self-indulgence. Often the advisers to kings and emperors, Wizards represent the pinnacle of practical knowledge on Aerynth. These studious sages are anything but frail, however. They can weave themselves into the shadows, disappear and reappear elsewhere at will, conjure otherworldly beasts to fight on their behalf, unleash devastating magical damage, and devour the will of lesser spell casters.
