 +====== Mage ======
 +{{:weird-wizard:wizard.png?nolink&350|}}
 +You learn real magic—not tricks and misdirection. From your hands, you can release gouts of flame. With a word, you can cross vast distances in an instant. You can call up monsters to fight on your behalf and consult with mind-boggling, diabolical beings. Learning magic requires time and energy, forcing you to neglect other areas of potential development, but then, who needs to be good with a sword when you can blast your enemies apart by speaking a few mystical words?
