The '''sorcerer''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest II}}.
 
These masked spellcasters were originally followers of [[Hargon]].
 
==Description==
Sorcerers are a [[Humanoid family|humanoid]] enemies. It usually wears a white robe with the [[Children of Hargon|bat insignia of Hargon on the front]], a pinkish-magenta cape, and a white mask with a red jewel on its forehead. It wields a staff in battle, topped with either a red or blue crystal orb. As one might expect from the name, sorcerers are spellcasters. Also, like many humanoid monsters in the series, they are now depicted as having five fingers on their hands in modern appearances instead of four. They have access to a variety of magic at their fingertips such as fire magic and support spells to serve their demonic masters, but they are cowardly and are just as likely to flee from battle at the first sign of danger.
 
In the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version of {{VII}}, sorcerers now wear orange robes with yellow and brown sleeves and red-orange capes.
