Gadwick, the Wizened, is a human wizard of Eldraine. He is the powerful and mysterious archmage of Vantress.[1] He is the master of the apprentice mage Johann.
Description[ | ]
Unlike the other courts, Vantress has no official ruler. Instead, the people of Vantress were led by the Magic Mirror, Indrelon, itself. However, as it is a sentient magical object that spends most of its time underwater, most of the day-to-day responsibilities tend to fall on one or two notable Vantress loremages under the title of archmage. It takes a sharp mind to earn the Mirror's respect and decipher its cryptic instructions, so the position of archmage is regarded with a level of respect reserved for the monarchs in other courts. Gadwick is the most recent archmage of Vantress.[2]

History[ | ]
Gadwick chose the elementalist Johann as his apprentice.[4] After Gadwick left his residence at Caervelin on business, his apprentice failed to maintain the complex mechanisms that ruled the wizard's domain, accidentally causing the tower to burn down.[1]
