Reading all of the post on warlock/wizard.. I am pulling out my
hair.. agh!!! I know that we are all Harry Potter fans here and
not students of real Witchcraft/ Wizardry... but if you pick up any
book on the subject it will tell you that:
There are different categories of magic practitioners. The sorcerer
is the lowest and most likely to use dark magic. A warlock and
witch are the same thing.. different sex. A wizard is a wise man or
wise woman, and the very highest level. The term Wizard is the same
as a magus .. plural magi.. as in the Magi who followed the star to
the Christ child.
There are 2 types of magic.. folk magic and high magic. Sorcerers,
witches and warlocks use the lower form.. folk magic. A wizard can
use fork magic too. But, ONLY a Wizard uses High Magic.
I'd say some folks..,, no names
have fallen asleep in their
History of Magic class!!!
So when DD is a sorcerer, a warlock, and a wizard.. it is like
saying he has a BA, MA, and PHD. What I what to know is what is a
Mugwamp?
