Arcane spellcaster

Arcane spellcasters, sometimes known as arcanists or mages were individuals who wielded arcane magic either through training as artificers, swordmages, wizards, through innate ability such as bards or sorcerers, or through the pacts with powerful beings as in the case of warlocks.

History
The title "arcanist" originated with the Empire of Netheril where it was synonymous with the more modern word "wizard."
