Concept »
Yet another mage variant, Battle Mages prefer to hone their magic skills on the battlefield.
A Concept mostly in MMORPGs. A Buff allows the player to increase their stats for a short period of time.
A fallen knightly champion (often a Paladin) who has returned as an undead. Not to be confused with Black Knight (though a character can certainly be both). Most commonly seen in High Fantasy roleplaying settings like Dungeons and Dragons and WarCraft.
Need a sword the burns your foes or a gun that zaps them with lightning? Then Elemental Weapons are the ones for you.
Enchantment is the process of infusing mundane items with magical properties, or manipulating your enemies minds with magic.
A concept found in numerous video games, the idea that a weapon on fire is more powerful or does special "burn" damage when set on fire. Most commonly found with swords, several other weapons have been known to be set on fire for a similar effect.
In many role-playing games, especially Western action-RPGs and roguelikes, items can be found that are unidentified - the player can see limited info about the type of item it is, but not specific stats. Usually a scroll or spell is needed to identify loot.
The concept of affecting the universe through supernatural methods, breaking the fundamental laws of science.
Slashing weapons are designed to cut and slice rather than causing blunt trauma. Examples include swords, axes, claws, naginatas, or even whips.
An aesthetic sub-genre of fantasy, focusing on brutal barbarians and arcane wizardly magic.
