Able to weave and shape the ethereal magic of the Realms, '''Mages''' possess diverse powers of combat, protection, and transportation. The Mage's arsenal is crucial to survival. Young Magi learn that their magical prowess is frequently insufficient to guard them from harm. However, as their experience grows and knowledge increases, the Mage evolves into someone capable of wielding awesome powers of devastation. Magi are able to [[adhere]] to specialized fields of study known as '[[paths]].' They are also renowned for their skills in scribing scrolls and brewing potions to aid those unskilled in magic.

|<div style="font-size:90%;">"''All things are divided into the twin forces of order and chaos, forever contending for dominance. Life is something that occurs in the interface; not in the writhing discord of utter chaos, nor in the flatline perfection of pure order, but somewhere between... ...It is the basis of magic; the imposition of order on formless chaos, The release of joyous chaos into the gray monotony of order ..this is the true magic. All else is shadow.''" Neil Gaiman, "The Books of Magic"</div>

Relying heavily upon their mental acumen, a Mage must always maintain their intelligence. Mages who grow sloth and dullard have far more difficulty in the casting of spells. The spells they do cast are far less potent than those of a Mage who has not let his mind deteriorate. Coupled with intelligence is a Mage's need for wisdom. Without the judicious application of intelligence, magic is a dangerous ally. Ultimately, so much time exerted in study results in Mages becoming slightly less physically capable than other classes. Mages tend to be weaker than most classes and deficient in strength.
