A spellcaster is anyone who uses magic purposefully and consciously. Almost always, they use words from the ancient language to guide and focus their spells. A gifted spellcaster can take a single word from the ancient language and cause nearly unlimited results to occur. However, something like that takes a lot of time and practice to accomplish.
Spellcasters have many names associated with them such as spellweaver, sorcerer, herbalist, witch, wizard, fortune teller, healer, and magician. Each title is a bit different, but they all share many similarities. Here are the most basic guidelines to the abilities that pretty much all spellcasters possess:
1. They can sense when their thoughts are being observed, and with some concentration they can observe the thoughts of others.
2. They use words from the ancient language to shape spells to accomplish their goals.
3. When a spell is cast, it uses energy equal to the amount that would have been used if it was accomplished without magic. This energy almost always comes from the spellcaster directly. Very few know that you can use the energy from the living things around you (hint: don't have you character know how to do this).
