[QUOTE="Blue Orange, post: 8813905, member: 7025997"] They've both pretty much become associated with arcane-spellcaster-in-robes-with-a-dagger, I think. The 'sorcerer' has a little more of a bad-boy image, the 'wizard' more of a wise-old-guy image. Going with the female versions, a 'sorceress' is seen as more of a standard magic-user, whereas 'wizardress' I've only seen in D&D. I think Pathfinder uses 'magus'. Thesaurus.com gives me 'conjurer', 'enchanter', 'magician', and 'necromancer', all of which have been D&D level titles for magic-users at some point. ;) There's also more purely divination-oriented words like 'astrologer', 'clairvoyant', 'diviner', 'fortuneteller', 'augur', and 'seer', as well as 'hypnotist'. I'd go with 'warlock' (if you don't have that class) or 'magus' (this not having an orthodox meaning in D&D you can overlay it with whatever you like). IMHO, of course. [/QUOTE]
