enchanter

Worker of magic

An enchanter is someone who casts spells or charms, typically in fantasy and folklore contexts: The enchanter transformed the prince into a frog.

The word carries connotations of mysterious power and seduction rather than malevolence—enchanters beguile and captivate.

Figuratively, anyone who charms or fascinates might be called an enchanter: He was an enchanter on the piano.
