==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
Magi are [[Humanoid family|humanoid]] spellcasters. They wear white robes with the bat insignia of the [[Children of Hargon]] on the front and a green and red triangular pattern at the ends of their sleeves, a long green cape around their necks with a red jeweled brooch, and red shoes. In their right hands, they wield a tall scepter topped with a green crystal orb. As one might expect from the name, the magus is a magic user. Like many other humanoid monsters in the series, they are now depicted with five fingers on their hands in modern appearances instead of four. According to their bestiary descriptions in ''IX'', the magi are formerly men who sold their souls to evil in order to acquire magic power.
