Wizard

A wizard was a name for a magic-user. Whether it signified a specific type of magic-user or was an umbrella term, and whether or not it was a gendered term, varied from one universe to another. A wizard's activities could be described as Wizardry. In universes where wizards were a distinct population from the rest of humanity, “wizarding” could be used as an adjective to denote kinship to the wizard population.

History

Montresor, the Strange and Wonderful House's mysterious Keeper of the Cellar, “smelled” that Christopher had an aptitude for magic and, when it became necessary, boosted it by letting him drink the distilled memories of a wizard]]which “flooded his mind” with magic. (PROSE: Our Strange and Wonderful House: The First Step)

Glendalf, whom the Jenny Everywhere of the Collapsed Cosmos knew as an old friend, was apparently a wizard, although he was actually a guise of an Abstract. In at least one continuity prior to the Collapse, to which their Collapsed selves were attuned, Jenny, Glendalf and many other heroes had been part of an organisation dedicated to fighting Stardust the Super-Wizard, a “fascist god”. Also in the Collapsed Cosmos, Jenny was aware of a fictional character who could be described as “a wizarding bad-boy”. (PROSE: The Hermetic Garbage of Jenny Everywhere)

In one universe, Steven Lucas was a wizard who lived in the same building that housed the apartment shared by Jenny Everywhere and Kim. He claimed that he occasionally “needed to ‘commune with the spheres,’ which meant going to the Space Coast and astrally projecting into a satellite”, although Kim suspected it was just a cover story so he could go to Disney World. Additionally, Genevieve, Princess of Everywhere, another incarnation of Jenny who once met this Jenny, was aware of a wizard called Mordorak of the Nine Noses. (PROSE: Pit Stop)

In Junter and Ibdis's universe, wizards could be female, as demonstrated by Sam, a member of the O.O.P. adventuring party, who was a woman. Sam laconically explained her job as “I do magic and junk”. (PROSE: Look At His Dead Eyes)

In Reality Z-25 31-H, Mysto the Space-Wizard was a magic-user who used a mixture of prestidigitation and actual magic to protect the Earth from cosmic threats. (COMIC: Tales To Behold)

One Jenny had a wizard called Aitar as a companion. Aitar was zealously committed to Magic, which he viewed as “the only pure science”. He was “a handsome figure, young in appearance but with short white hair”. When he cast magic or prepared to cast it, strange symbols appeared around his hands.

One Emperor once used the words “wizard” and “witch” to refer to shifters such as Greta Överallt and Sven Allestädes, although this seemed to be informal. (COMIC: 24 Hour Comic 2019)

The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids had a Department of Wizardry. (PROSE: The Winter Quests)

There were wizards among the guests at a birthday party organised by one Jenny Everywhere in “a place she made” which was attended by a few hundreds of her friends and a few hundreds of her incarnations. They helped fight off Jenny Nowhere's attempt to crash the party. (PROSE: Fragment: Nowhere Plan)
