Technically I think there is.
Though now that I think about it magician has a lot of different meanings. Mage is the general term for a magic user though. So I'm definitely a mage.
I don't think this signature thingy gets magician definition right.

Mage = short form of magician, isn't it?

I'm not sure if mage is short for magician. If it is it makes things simpler though

The word "mage" seems to be derived from the Latin word "magum" / "magus" wich means something like sorcerer, wizard, or magician, yeah...


And, nope...

Originally, Gandalf had access to Kalashnikovs. But then Tolien decided to interviene... >_>

Yes, the Latin tends to get translated as Wise Man (as in the three wise men who visited Jesus) and refers to Persian priests of Zoroastrianism.  Mazda be praised!

I did read that, but figured that it'd be a little confusing to have mages affilitiated with the bible, given that a realistic christian would just call haxx (witchcraft) and try to put 'em straight on the stake, right?

I'm shure that that info will come in handy some time in my life! :P
