Magic Caster

Magic Caster (マジック・キャスター, Majikku Kyasutā) is the generic term used to describe those with a profession in magic in the New World and YGGDRASIL.

Introduction to Types of Magic Casters
All tier spells in YGGDRASIL could be categorized in four great systems of magic, each one with some exclusive spells and characteristics; at the same way, magic casters are categorized by the system of magic that they use. Magic role players gain access to this systems through specific job classes like: There are other categories like Blessing type, that belong to the Alternative system:
 * Arcane Type Magic Caster: Elementalist, Sorcerer etc.
 * Divine Type Magic Caster: Cleric, Hierophant etc.
 * Spiritual Type Magic Caster: Talisman User, Shaman etc.
 * Blessing Type Magic Caster: Bard, Paladin, Cursed Knight, etc.

Each category has its own rank system. If a character learned a 7th-tier spell in Arcane Type Magic and 2nd-tier spells in Divine Type Magic, they are treated as a 7th-tier Magic Caster. Thus, an efficient class build is necessary to use spells of higher ranks.

Abilities and Powers
Every magic caster possesses the ability to use magic of a certain type. They can change the results of the battlefield in their favor depending on their skills and power level. magic casters, especially arcaners from the New World, had weaker bodies than warriors. Instead of training one's body, they spend all their effort on learning magic. Magic casters, who could fight on par with warriors were nonexistent and rather prefer to fight from a distance.

According to Fluder, magic casters in particular radiate something like an aura from their bodies. The more adept one becomes in magic, the stronger this aura becomes.

Among the magic casters, those that call upon god’s miracles are the clerics and priests. Whereas placing heavy emphasis on their faith stat are magicians comprised of wizards and secret arts users called arcaners. While prioritizing on their magic power stat would be the talismancers and shamans, since they placed heavy emphasis on their mental strength stat. Lastly were those that placed heavy emphasis on other stats besides the ones mention.
