Multiple issues unreferenced December 2009 notability June 2011 The term hedgewizard comes from hedge witch , a term used in folklore for the cunning folk or local herb doctors who also use spells and charms to heal the sick. In fantasy literature , a hedgewizard or hedge magician is generally a Magician fantasy wizard of low ability, usually self taught or with a low education background as opposed to the common examples of being apprenticed to a mentor or studying though a structured educational system. Some fictional backgrounds identify them more with rural than urban backgrounds. In the novels of Mercedes Lackey , the term is derogatory, describing a character as incompetent, uneducated, of lower social standing or of lesser power. It is similar to calling someone a hack writer or a slob but specific to practitioners of Magician fantasy magic in these stories. In role playing game s and video game s a hedgewizard is usually a weaker wizard encountered when still at a lower level. With a limited number of spells and lacking in power they are normally easy to defeat. In the Ars Magica roleplaying game, a hedgewizard is any mage not of the Order of Hermes, who claims the largest monopoly on power. Discworld In Terry Pratchett s Discworld series of novels, the term hedgewizard is used to describe a wizard who specializes in the magical properties of plants. Although this does fit with the idea of a more rural wizard, given Pratchett s humorous proclivities it is likely here to be a deliberate pun on the word Hedge gardening hedge . For example, a character says If you invited a hedgewizard to a party he d spend half the evening talking to your potted plant...and he d spend the other half listening to it.
