evokers

Those who conjure

Evokers are people or things that evoke—that call forth memories, emotions, or images.

A photograph might be an evoker of nostalgia; a skilled writer is an evoker of vivid scenes.

The word appears occasionally in gaming contexts for characters who summon creatures or conjure effects: The evoker called forth a wall of flames.
