Shadra the spider loa... the venom queen, a spirit of darkness and death! If there's been a sacrifice, they're trying to bring her forth as a last-ditch effort.

Mages are a caster-based class. Their primary stats are [[Attributes#Intellect|Intellect]], [[Attributes#Stamina|Stamina]], and [[Attributes#Spirit|Spirit]]. They have two primary roles, [[crowd control]] and dealing damage (especially area damage). Mages also have some additional utility.
 
   
  +
Check the cave behind the altar at the top of Jintha'Alor. Deep within it, one of Shadra's keepers might still be lurking. Kill her and take whatever she carries back here so we can know what's going on.
Mages are heavily reliant on mana; without mana, a mage is extremely vulnerable.

==Completion==
Mages can only wear cloth armour. They can wield staves and wands by default, and daggers and 1-handed swords with training. Wands go in the ranged slot.
