A mage is a powerful weapon, but usually must be protected from harm as
they are not physically strong. The primary stat for mages is intelligence,
with wisdom, which is usually four points lower. Both stats are necessary
to master the complex spells of their trade
Mages can brew potions, scribe scrolls and enchant weapons and armor with
elemental and force field effects.
Equipment effects that are most useful for mages are INTELLIGENCE, WISDOM,
MANA_REGEN, MANA and MAGE_CAST_LEVEL. Physical stats like CONSTITUTION,
STRENGTH and HIT_POINTS can increase the durability of fragile mages,
and CHARISMA can help keep aggressive monsters from getting the drop
on them.
Mages start with the 'shower of sparks', 'static blast' and 'chill
touch' spells.
