Wizard (creature)

Not every magic user follows the path of the Eight Virtues. These dark mages use their talents to statisfy their greed for wealth and power, and won't hesitate to use any means to get what they want. Wizards are capable of casting devastating spells, and are often escorted by several Skeletons or Daemons as bodyguards.

In Ultima I, they were also referred to as Warlocks or Necromancers, although only those known as Warlocks were adept at hurling magical bolts from a distance.

Evil Wizards can be found almost anywhere in Britannia, although in earlier Ages they seemed to prefer to attack surface-dwellers.

Lore
''Rogue practitioners of the magical arts, Warlocks are the evil servitors of Mondain. The Foul One hath trained them in the casting of bolts of mystic energy and sent them forth to wreak havoc among the populace. Slay them if ye can, for the arcane arts should never be used for wicked purpose.''



Notable examples

 * The Avatar met a number of Dark Mages, like the Fiend or Erethian, so it would be futile to list them all here.
