    Well, it’s obvious. He isn’t a humanoid spellcaster, he’s a celestial. Quite literally. In this book’s frustrating diversion from established D&D terminology, the humanoids simply call celestials wizards.

      Lord of the rings predates D&D though.

      I think it’s mildly funny how when WotC got their hands on some LotR rights to make MtG cards, they still typed Hobbits as halflings.

      But then the halfling token for the set is labeled as Tolkien Creature - Halfling instead of Token Creature - Halfling.
