white magician

Light-wielding spell caster

A white magician practices magic intended for benevolent purposes—healing, protection, or spiritual enlightenment—as opposed to the harmful intentions associated with black magic.

The term appears in fantasy literature and occult traditions to distinguish practitioners by moral alignment: The white magician blessed the village against plague.

Also called white witch or white wizard.
