Naturally, not all Wizards are equal – mastery of magic increases through dedicated practice (and, occasionally, through sheer luck). To represent this, Wizards are divided into four degrees of ability called 'Levels of Wizardry' (often shortened simply to 'Level' in the rules that follow). The higher a Wizard's Level, the greater their knowledge of magic:

• Level 1: Wizards of the first level are those of humble ability.

• Level 2: Wizards of the second level are experienced spellcasters.

• Level 3: Wizards of the third level are great sorcerers of a kind rarely seen.

• Level 4: Wizards of the fourth level are the mightiest of all Wizards, the very equal of crowned monarchs within the realms of sorcery.
