The '''Sorcerer''' is a monster in the series.

==Description==
Sorcerers are a [[Humanoid family|humanoid]] spellcasters. It wears a white robe with the bat insignia of Hargon on the front, a pinkish-magenta cape, blue gloves, and a white mask with a red jewel on its forehead. It wields a tall staff topped with either a red or blue crystal orb. Their monster description in ''Heroes'' states that they were formerly men who were transformed to monsters by the allure of magic. Like many humanoid monsters in the series, they are now depicted as having five fingers on their hands in modern appearances instead of four. They have access to a variety of magic at their fingertips such as fire magic and support spells to serve their demonic masters, but they are cowardly and are just as likely to flee from battle at the first sign of danger.

In the Nintendo 3DS version of ''VII'', sorcerers now wear orange robes with yellow and brown sleeves and red-orange capes.
