And people thinking magic classes are weak and pointless is laughable. Every single person who's played RPGs knows that yes, magicians start out weak. But at later levels they're often far more powerful than melee classes. Because they get access to defensive spells, and can easily stay and attack at range. Not to mention the utility in being able to do all kinds of different spells, rather than only being able to attack with a weapon.
I know it's just the premise for the story, but still...that's a hard one to believe. xD
