The Wizard

Diablo III's Wizard - 'Male Edition'

It's a waste to only have 1 representative of each Diablo III class; I mean, there are a ton of abilities to draw from. So, with that philosophy in mind, here is the first of my Diablo III 'Other Gender Edtion'(Really bad name, I know) characters.

This incarnation of the Diablo III Wizard is a Ranged Specialist who's kit revolves around the set 'Delsere's Magnum Opus', which revolves around the ability Slow Time.
