Properties[]

As an archetype, an archmage, is an extremely powerful mage or magician, sorcerer or sorceress, warlock, wizard, witch etc. or humanoid-type beings that possesses the highest forms of magic. Some of these being are naturally born with magic while others gained magic through just the study of it to become the most powerful of magicians ever known. They are of the greatest class of spell casters and magic users to ever exist. Not only are archmages capable of controlling, manipulating, conjuring and mastering nearly every form of magic in existence, but they may also hold a particularly powerful command over various other mystic as well.

Archmages are lords and masters of magic and can draw power from an infinite number of sources, be they physical, spiritual, divine, demonic or conceptual in nature. Unlike lesser spellcasters then them, they lack many of the limitations in the usage of magic due to being one with the arcane forces.
