Arcanist

An arcanist is a person educated in the arcane sciences and trained in its practical applications. In meta terms, arcanists are wizards.

Arcanists wield no powers innately. Rather, they learn to wield arcana through deep study and training. In theory, anyone can become an arcanist with the right amount of education.

Many arcanists study in formal settings, such as an educational institution, where they do research, author papers, and seek academic degrees, while some are taken in as apprentices under an already-established arcanist. Extremely rarely does someone become an arcanist through individual study, but it does happen every once in a while.
