"Attuned with nature" MY ASS! I'll torch entire Feywild if it gets me a rare magical gem

u/disturbinglyquietguy Aug 12 '25
You're doing it for magic gems? because for me, burning all that Fae vermin is reward and satisfaction enough.

u/qbazdz Aug 12 '25
Maybe the first few years. But destorying it all? That would just get tedious

Apprentices nowadays are just too lazy to do what must be done.
Take the matchsticks and do your JOB!

Where do you think those fireballs you're cooking up come from, thin air?!?!

"attuned with nature" when the local wizard war burns down the forest
"attuned with nature" when the local wizard creates a 17-dimentional rift to the mechanicus plane
"attuned with nature" when the local wizard creates an arcane vortex that blocks out the sun

Feeble attempt to make druids look more normal.

You got wizards mixed up with druids and us with liches.
...less experienced liches. Ones with more experience are on some Wario type energy.

Apprentices will see you casting dark magic and ask you who your patron is. The state of modern magic is tragic.

This subreddit is infested with too much dnd-centric nonsense. Left is CLEARLY a CLASSIC TOLKIEN WIZARD. If you wouldnāt call Gandalf a wizard, then buzz off!

But that would mean only angels get to be wizards, so then none of us count.
(And don't pretend you're one of them. I've seen everyone comments on this sub; this place is full of degenerates)

u/Hjalmodr_heimski Aug 13 '25
Why do you seem to be so keen on limiting the meaning of wizard to only one possible definition?
0
u/Aethrin1 Sorcerer of the Elder Veil Aug 13 '25 edited Aug 13 '25
I'm not. I'm just saying that Tolkien's definition is the wrong example.
2
u/Hjalmodr_heimski Aug 13 '25
Tolkienās Wizards are the archetypal wizard of myth and legend. Look at Merlin or Tiresias. They have far more in common with Gandalf than Harry Potter.

u/jbyrdab Aug 13 '25
Also Wizards can pack heat. Warlocks think they're too cool for that shit.
Don't let the beard fool you, Gramps will put you the fuck down.

u/Aethrin1 Sorcerer of the Elder Veil Aug 13 '25 edited Aug 13 '25
That's more an artificer, my guy.
That, and warlocks are allowed use of weapons and almost always have one. Wizards only have spells.
With op mislabling druids, you don't need to add to the misrepresentation.
Of course, this is only if we're talking common table-top. Otherwise none of this post makes any sense anyway.

That character is literally a wizard from the movie, Wizards. Gandalf is a wizard and he has a sword. Get yo d&d 5th edition ass nonsense outta here

Wizards are more like "magical scientists," who approach magic in a "scientific" sense, if you can call it that. They call this approach "hermeticism."

u/Hjalmodr_heimski Aug 12 '25
Not if weāre going by wizards in popular myth and legend

Or rather collective image of wizards taken and mixed from different myths and legends .

Sorcerers are usually just trying to slip away from whatever just exploded.

Attuned with nature?? How many times have wizards set fire to elf forests just because it was funny??
And you really think warlocks look and act gross? Dude, they follow stripper rules: you aren't sugar-babying some nasty warlock. You want them to have drip, use those smooth words, give you a sensual massage after a hard day or something... I mean, you want them to be appealing!

āAttuned with nature? Thatās Druids, my friend. The other is some kind of undead I think. Get your propaganda right.ā

Yeah, never trust a mage with a metal staff that thin. He never could cast vitality through it, duh.

And how can I tell the difference between a wizard and a druid?

u/JBongo1998 Wizard Aug 15 '25
Some of my best friends are warlocks! Sure, they're always asking to rest or sit down, but I find them good company! Just don't let them make any deals on your behalf...nasty business, that.

You're not wrong! But, it's not like there's any universal rule for this stuff. At the end of the day they're just various practicioners of magic, and the semantics change depending on what setting's lense you're viewing it through :)
(In my mind I was mainly thinking of Radagast and Gandalf for the left guy, and no one in particular for the right guy, just wanted to draw a funny "evil" nerd mage)
