Wizard (女魔術師, Onna Majutsushi) was a spell-casting Adventurer who was part of a porcelain-ranked party on a Goblin Slaying Quest.
Appearance
Wizard had red hair, green eyes, and wears dark robes, slightly heeled boots, a cloak, a pair of glasses, and a large pointed hat. She also wielded a magic staff awarded to her by her academy upon graduation which she treasured dearly.
Personality
Wizard was less lighthearted than the party she accompanied, being far more foul tempered and easily annoyed. She was not very fond of Priests, especially Priestess, whose skittish behavior worsened her impression.
During her mission to slay Goblins, Wizard felt a great rush of confidence after killing one of them. She took great pride in her staff and was thus enraged when a Goblin snapped it in half.
Chronology
Background
Wizard had graduated at the top of her class from the Academy in the Capital where she had learned her spells. Upon graduation, she left for the Frontier to start a new life as an Adventurer, leaving her family including her little brother, Wizard Boy, behind for the time being. She would register the same Spring as Warrior and Fighter who she formed a Adventurer Party with.
Goblin Slayer Volume 1
Wizard and Fighter meet Priestess, Wizard is not impressed
Wizard stood by the side when Warrior and Fighter invited fellow newcomer Priestess into their Party so the could go on a Goblin Slaying Quest, against the advice of Guild Girl who suggested the safer alternatives.
Before entering the cave, Wizard became annoyed with Priestess's skittish nature who kept bringing up how they had no potions, antidotes, or other essentials and like Warrior brushed her worries off. Entering a cave, Wizard and Priestess were soon attacked by Goblins from side tunnels they had failed to notice and quickly overpower Wizard. In a fit of rage, she flailed wildly and kicked away several Goblins in the process, was stabbed in the abdomen. Unable to save the other party members, Priestess attempted to heal Wizard's wound, but her condition only worsened, much to Priestess' confusion.
Wizard is fatally stabbed and poisoned
When Goblin Slayer arrived, he revealed that the dagger she was stabbed with was poisoned and that it was too late for even a potion or antidote to save her. Hearing this and suffering greatly, Wizard begged him to kill her, which Goblin Slayer obliged. Her body was later sent back to her family in the Capital for burial.
Goblin Slayer Volume 6
As a year passed, Wizard's little brother, Wizard Boy, came to the Frontier to become an Adventurer and avenge her. After his disastrous first mission, he broke down and admitted all the people who ever praised his sister, had gone on to mock her now for dying to Goblins. This disrespect caused him to quit the Magic Academy and further his family's shared dislike of Priests as he believed a Priest should've been able to cure her.
Goblin Slayer Volume 8
Priestess visits Wizard's grave
As Priestess went to the Capital, she visited Wizard's grave with High Elf Archer, Priestess knelt in front of the tombstone and assured that she'll keep hunting Goblins even with the skittish behavior that Wizard scolded her for, and that she met her younger brother.
Abilities
Wizard was considered a genius by the academy, even calling her a prodigy. She also managed to kill off one of the Goblins with her flame spell, but given how quickly she was killed, the full extent of her skills was never known.
Spells
- Firebolt: A flaming bolt of fire. Due to its charge time, it was ineffective to deal with hordes.
