Wizards (2006 Edition)

Wizards are strange figures who wield awesome magical powers and are privy to secrets usually beyond the kind of normal folk. Trained at the Colleges of Magic for many years, arcane power courses through their veins and lurks behind their eyes like the thunder before a storm. No sane inhabitant of the Empire willingly courts the attention of a Wizard, for they are unpredictable and (some whisper) tainted by the very magic they wield. The services of a Wizard are much sought after by the Elector Counts, as many of their enemies employ potent shamans or fell sorcerers. Such foes bend the Winds of Magic to evil and destructive ends and only those skilled in the arcane arts may stand against such power.

Battle Wizards hurl bolts of fire and lightning at the foe, confound them with illusions, or steal away their courage. Each of the Lores of Magic has the power to smite the enemies of the Empire, and it is a rare army that marches to war without at least one Battle Wizard. To be a Wizard is to understand the power at the heart of the world, and though each can bend one of the eight Winds of Magic to his will, such power is not wielded lightly. To lose control of such dangerous power would be to damn one’s soul to an eternity of torment at the hands of the Dark Gods themselves…

You may include a Wizard Lord in your Empire army as a Lords choice, and a Battle Wizard as a Heroes choice.
