Mages on Dark Castle are spellcasters and magic
users of potentially limitless power.  They live,
and occasionally die, by their incantations.
Most of their time is spent in intense study, and
therefore, mages tend to be fairly weak and frail.
 
Due to their lack of allegiance to any of the
pantheonn of deities, they possess little healing
power.  Without magical augmentation, a mage has
the least number of attacks of any of the other
classes.  As compensation for these fairly
significant restrictions, mages have at their
disposal an arsenal of spells unmatched by any
others.
 
Be they a powerful and commanding WARMAGE
or mysterious and lethal SPELLBINDER, mages
are among the greatest forces throughout the
realms.
