black magicians

Evil spell casters

Black magicians are practitioners of black magic—occult arts directed toward harmful, selfish, or malevolent ends.

The term appears in fantasy fiction, occult literature, and historical accounts of witchcraft.

In esoteric traditions, black magicians are distinguished from white magicians by their willingness to manipulate or harm others: The village blamed their misfortunes on a black magician living in the woods.
