GSIV SPELLS: Wizards

Winking Eye

Simu Explains:

Wizards are masters of elemental magic, the force that imbues the world and surrounds all within it. With this power, Wizards concentrate on spells which harness and bring to bear the forces of nature for use in attack, defense and utility purposes. Excellent at acquiring knowledge of magical lore and magical devices, Wizards are among the poorest in the use of weapons and gain skill at arms only at great expense. Heavier armor types are shunned by Wizards as they adversely affect the ability to cast spells.
