The Magician (JP: 魔法使い) is a hero occupation introduced in What Did I Do to Deserve This, My Lord!?, where they also went by Wizard, Druid, and Shaman, the latter not to be confused with the class in No Heroes Allowed!. They are depicted as robed mages holding a wooden staff, akin to modern depictions of Merlin from Arthurian legend.

Gameplay

Magicians attack with magical missiles that fly in a straight line, piercing any monsters in its path. This makes them a fierce foe to face in long corridors, with weaker, slower monsters perishing before they can land a hit. However, when the missile hits a wall, the missile abruptly ends, and the Magician's attack speed is often very poor, even late-game. Thus, countering Magicians revolves around taking advantage of their walk patterns and constructing winding paths around the dungeon, preventing their missiles from making a large impact. Open spaces can also be problematic for Magicians, forcing them to be attacked from multiple sides.

Magicians, true to their name, also come with a surfeit of magic they can use. Volcano, Tornado, and Heal are most commonly seen, letting them deal serious damage to Badman's army in short bursts. However, because these require MP, draining it with runes is a fair strategy.
