Wizarding as a Job

Wizarding is a well-respected profession within the DARP community, with long standing traditions and customs. Wizards are usually sanctioned and licensed by a larger Wizarding organization. The largest, oldest, and most prestigious Wizarding organizarion is the Wizard Council. Many talented practitioners of the mystic arts boast membership, and council wizards are diverse in their knowledge and skills in all manner of spells, sorceries, arts, crafts, etc.

Wizards among the larger magical professional community

Wizards are considered a staple at most magical functions, and where magic is at play, a wizard is close at hand. Wizards tend to get along with most other magical professions, including Warlocks, Shamans, Sorcerers, and Sages. Witches, however, tend to have an antagonistic relationship with Wizards. They often trap, confuse, curse, muddle, befuddle, steal the souls of hapless wizards who are caught alone. As a result, most wizards travel together in parties, and engage outsiders at a distance.

Combat

Generally speaking, wizards tend to do poorly in close quarters, as many spells require arm-waving, shouting, and usually lots of maneuvering of their staves, wands, and other apparatuses. They may escape such places for less confining areas if threatened.
