I’d like to change this definition to something more accurate, since it is really describing a stage magician, not neccessarily a magic user. I would make it something like this;
Possibly broadest title for a person that practices magic. Magicians are known to use any or all of the more specialized disciplines. A trait common to someone described as a magician is the ability to make things ‘appear out of thin air’. This is not limited to physical items, but may include producing seemingly impossible results in a given situation. Magicians are also know for accomplishing the opposite, making something ‘disappear into thin air’. Real magicians should not be confused with stage magicians, who are more properly considered to be illusionists. (Not intended to be a definitive description as many people use the various terms for magic-users interchangeably.)
@LXD: "That is because this category is not meant to describe a general magic user. It is specifically about the occupation stage magician or illusionist, regardless of the individual's methods.
