A mage hero with the Great Master, Variant template applied to it. Mage champions are unmatched warriors and powerful spellcasters. Their enemies buckle and break before their blades, while they shrug off all manner of mundane and magical onslaught. Capable of providing an even match to countless incredibly powerful monsters, a mage champion can easily be one of the most powerful combatants in an army, if not a continent, but they are incredibly rare thanks to the long years of training and innate skill required to master the required arcane and martial abilities.
