Famous Wizards from the History of High Sorcery

Starting with one of the most famous Wizards in history,
[center]Magius[/center]
Magius (? PC – 1018 PC) was a male Human of Solamnia who was one
of the mightiest wizards of his day, and one of the most
well-known mages in the entire history of Krynn. He was lithe
and tall, and gifted with handsome features that gave him a
noble air. Magius had long blond hair that was likened to a
golden mane, which he often kept braided to keep out of his
face, and intense blue eyes. He wore the colored robes of the
various orders he served in, except for his tenure as a Renegade
Mage. Whilst operating outside of the wizardly orders, he wore
blue and gold robes, with a white cape, and soft leather hip
boots.
For all his power and sarcasm, Magius was privately a very
insecure individual who openly ridiculed the Knights of Solamnia
and teased his best friend Huma as a means of hiding his own
insecurities. As a means of overcoming his insecurities, he
sought to learn and improve his magic constantly. Magius was
also sometimes moody and brooding, which overcame his
mischievous side and made him very standoffish.
During the Test, Magius was shown the one thing he was unable to
accept: the details of how and when he would die in the future.
Unknown to the mage, this future death was merely a detailed
fabrication, created to teach the egotistical mage some
humility; however, the young mage strongly believed it to be the
truth. Also during his Test, Magius had a vision of a mountain
which would apparently prove crucial to ending the Third Dragon
War. Magius passed the Test and first wore the Black Robes, then
the Red Robes, seeking out means to prevent his death. However,
both were far too restrictive and didn't allow him the means to
do so. Magius then turned away from the Orders of High Sorcery
and took up the life of a renegade mage instead, seeking out
more power and the ability to avoid his death.
In 1018 PC, Magius found himself fleeing from the minions of
Galan Dracos in the realm of Solamnia, where he came across his
friend Huma. Using Huma as a decoy, Magius was able to escape
the dreadwolves. He later appeared again to Huma and his
comrade, Kaziganthi de-Orilg, leading them both to the safety of
his citadel, located in a secluded grove in the lands of Ergoth.
Magius and Kaz took an instant dislike to one another, which led
to bickering and arguments throughout their time together,
although they maintained a level of civility for the sake of
their mutual friend Huma.
At the Citadel of Magius, the wizard explained to Huma how he
had become a renegade mage; however, his explanation was
interrupted by an attack by Crynus and a flight of Chromatic
Dragons. Magius sent Huma and Kaz to safety, whilst he fought
the dragons with his magic. Eventually, the mage fled to safety,
shedding the blue robes for the guise of a Red Robe, and found
Huma in Caergoth.
He received a vision that the mountains held a great gift from
Paladine, but that he would be killed by a guardian when he
reached the treasure. So instead, he sent his friend Huma in his
place to die, so the mage could freely acquire the relic and
cheat death. On realising that he was unable to find this great
gift himself, a remorseful Magius broke down as he realised he
had betrayed his one true friend.
When Huma reappeared, the mage realised the vision during his
Test was not real, and pledged his loyalty to Huma, who forgave
his friend.
Magius himself was captured and pulled into a portal, which led
to the domain of Galan Dracos.
The master renegade tortured Magius, who had reverted to wearing
the White Robes, and sent a magical vision to Huma, showing the
knight as he slew Magius with foul magic. The body of Magius was
then sent to Huma, who mourned over the loss of his friend but
swore to cherish his sacrifice and defeat Galan Dracos in his
friend's name.
