mage
Description
Mages are supremely powerful in the fact they disregard utility for pure power and forgo the ways of the warrior or the scholar to harness unbridaled arcane might. A Mage's only job is to blast out magic and ensure they are not a liability for their teammates.
Foundation
Armor
Mages may only wear armor from Class 1.
Weapon Recommendations
Mages typically wield short swords, daggers, staffs, or wands.
Magic Artifact
The Mage can use a magical artifact, be it a necklace, bracelet, staff, etc, to store excess magic over time. The artifact is permanently tied to a spell since the magic would have to be shaped for storage. Add +1 Utility to the chosen ability as long as you have the artifact.

“For those with a vast knowledge of ancient spells.”
Your abilities are not inherent in yourself, rather, they come from the supernatural.
