Wizard is one of the playable classes in Villagers and Heroes.

Disciplined resourceful, and possessing a commanding knowledge of the arcane, The Wizards of the Seven Realms wield great power over the natural elements of the world. Armed with a dangerously magical staff, wizards can unleash the ravaging forces of fire and ice upon their enemies, while offering their friends rejuvenating energies and spells. For guidance in unlocking the obscurer secrets of so mystical a land, wizards look to their elder, the alluring Calypso, the matron of wizardry and an ancient mistress of magic.
