Wizard (Professions Help)
Wizard. Mage. Sorcerer. The very names strike fear into the hearts
of even the most heroic of men. Shrouded in mystery, they travel the
world in search of arcane knowledge. Some study ancient lore to bring
peace to Arda, others to subjugate all beneath them. Not a few probe
these mysteries simply out of curiosity and wonder. By whatever means
the power is gained, and whether it is wielded through song, objects of
power, or sheer willpower alone, its effect in any battle is never short
of dramatic.
Wizards are a unique group. Only wizards (and their necromancer
counterparts) can cast spells reliably and effectively. Most wizards
concentrate their efforts on spellcasting exclusively, yet some have
been known to develop their fighting skills as well, which makes them
deadly foes indeed! Their knowledge of the world extends into the
psychic realms: wizards seem to know things about the world that the
common, untrained mind cannot fathom. Perhaps this is why even grown
adults talk of wizards only in close company, and still in hushed
voices...
The forces at a wizard's command are channeled through the use of
several skills. The following mystic arts determine a wizard's worth:
- Resist Magic
- Control Magic
- Concentration
- 6th Sense
In addition, wizards tend to be proficient at the following abilities:
- Cast
- Enchant
- Counter
- Find
NOTE: |
Wizards are a mortal profession. They are not the same as Istari.
