Red Wizard

A red wizard was a specialized Thayan mage who belonged to the Red Wizards of Thay. Would-be red wizards tended to focus on a specific school of magic. Very few sorcerers and bards decided to become red wizards; those who did were considered misfits.

Abilities
Red wizards were able to resist many spells from their chosen school of specialization. Again, specializing in a specific school, these spells cast by red wizards would become increasingly potent. The most powerful red wizards were able to scribe magical Thayan tattoos upon less experienced casters.

Creations
The Red Wizards of Thay were credited with creating the acid rain spell, and some red wizards were known to use this spell as part of their large magical arsenal.
