Mage

Mages are the unparalleled masters of arcane might, harnessing the boundless energy of Verra's raw essence to affect reality itself. 

Their command over the mystical arts allows them to unleash devastating attacks with an arsenal of powerful “area of effect” spells, a vast array of elemental attacks, and curses that can debilitate their foes. 

These powers, along with other useful utility magic that can bestow powerful enhancements on allies make mages an indispensable member of any adventuring party.
