Hedge wizard

A hedge wizard (or hedge mage) was usually a negative term to call some wizards who were not liked by the Kirin Tor. Most people do not make a distinction between sorcerers and wizards, although "hedge wizard" is used as a pejorative term by wizards against sorcerers.

Magistrate Marduke says that a "hedge mage" is a rogue wizard that never received their formal training from Dalaran.

Hedge mages often use the smoke of an herb known as Witchbane to draw evil from its hiding places.

The Defias Brotherhood has hedge mages in its ranks.
