- This article is about the Magi class. For the former Magi Guild, see Crystalline Circle.
The Magi are of a powerful, magic-wielding class that uses the skills of Crystalism, Elementalism, and Artificing. Previously the sole users of magical Enchantment (now divided between Augmentation and Conjuration), it was replaced by a new skill set called Artificing in 673. The former three were rediscovered by Taranis (born on the 21st of Daedalan, 184 AF), a notable former Druid who left his old Guild and became a prominent citizen of Shallam, serving as advisor to the Sultan. In the year 254 AF, he found the Crystal Caverns and was bestowed with knowledge of the arcane Magi ways. He utilised these newfound skills to found the original Magi Guild. Like Serpent- and Monk-classed adventurers, those of the magi class were not limited to but a single organisation during the era of Guilds, as several more Guilds of the magi class were soon also founded.
The extent of the mana drain from magi abilities is dramatically lowered with the Robes of the Magi artefact.
