Like usual, Sage is unlocked by mastering the [[Mage]] and [[Priest]] vocations.

|width="10%" valign="top" style="background:#4682B4"|'''<font color="#ffffff">Learns</font>'''
Sage is a powerful vocation that offers many strong offensive spells like [[Kaswoosh]], [[Kaboom]], or [[Magic Burst]]. Sages also learn a variety of supportive spells like [[Insulatle]] or [[Kabuff]]; and also many healing spells like [[Squelch]], [[Kazing]], or [[Fullheal]].

|width="50%" valign="top" style="background:#4682B4"|'''<font color="#ffffff">Info</font>'''
Mastering Sage and either [[Luminary (vocation)]] or [[Pirate]] unlocks [[Druid]]. Mastering Sage and two more intermediate vocations unlocks [[Hero (vocation)|Hero]].

The Sage vocation is accessible late in the game after completing [[Template:DQIXQuest/115|Quest #115]]: Sages in the Pages. Sages have the unique skillset "Enlightenment", and can also use skill points to learn {{Boomerang}}s, {{Bow}}s, {{Wand}}s and [[Shield]]s skills. Their [[Coup-de-Grace]] is "[[Spelly Breath]]", which recharges a portion of their {{MP}}.
The Sage vocation is accessible late in the game after completing [[Template:DQIXQuest/115|Quest #115]]: Sages in the Pages. Sages have the unique skillset "Enlightenment", and can also use skill points to learn [[List of boomerang skills in Dragon Quest IX|Boomerang]], [[List of bow skills in Dragon Quest IX|Bow]], [[List of wand skills in Dragon Quest IX|Wand]] and [[List of shield skills in Dragon Quest IX|Shield]] skills. Their [[Coup-de-Grace]] is "[[Spelly Breath]]", which recharges a portion of their {{MP}}.


Sages are no longer the literal hybrid of [[Mage]]s and [[Priest]]s, but nevertheless have access to incredible magical capabilities. They can reinforce the party with [[Kabuff]] and [[Magic Barrier]], decimate foes with darkness and explosions, and keep their allies alive with [[Multiheal]] and [[Moreheal]]. However, Sages can't deal the same level of damage [[Mage]]s can, nor can they heal as effectively as a [[Priest]] without carefully selected equipment. Thus, parties seeking powerful multi-target damage should stick with a [[Mage]], and those wanting powerful healing spells should stick with a [[Priest]]. On the other hand, combining the elements of a [[Mage]] and a [[Priest]] can free up a slot in the {{Party 9}}, allowing for more versatile {{Party 9}} combinations.
