Abilities and Powers

Wizards could only use light armor. They placed heavy emphasis on their magic power stat. With the right classes, a wizard could use Tier 1 spells of a certain type but can go up to Tier 2 or higher as more time is spent on training and leveling up.

• Charm
• Charm Person: The spell could cause the charmed target to see the user as their best friend. And as their friend, the user's words had a certain amount of effect on that person. However, since this was only a low-level charm spell, it could not brain-wash the target.

However, it cannot make the target reveal secrets that they would not reveal to a friend, or perform actions that friends would not tell them to do, such as self-harm.

Trivia

• According to Ninya, the Baharuth Empire has institutes that produce arcane magic casters like wizards.
• The term wizard appears to be a foreign term to the dark elves, though Ainz believes that it might be due to the lack of an educational system in the Elf Country.
