Classes :: Mage A mage is an individual whose intellectual curiosity leads him to ask questions perhaps better left unconsidered. Mages typically possess tremendous mental abilities, and spend a great deal of time in research and in conducting their experiments. This generally leaves them with feeble physical skills. From their magical training, they learn the mystical nature of the world around them, and having learned how to shape this force, they bend the physical world around them to suit their whim and will. While mages tend to start slowly, they are important to any group because they have such diverse effects. Simple spells can create water, food, and light, while more powerful spells can harness natural forces into bolts of lightning and sheets of fire. Protective spells, detection spells, and spells to enhance physical abilities are all learned by a mage, and with the additional unique and extremely useful spell of find familiar, a mage is indeed a powerful class. Mages' spells are adversely affected by metal, and the more metal a mage wears the more difficult it is to cast spells. To see a listing of the spells available to Mages, see the help file on Abilities. Other help files that may be useful include help magic, spell, leech, and prepare. |
