| The Enchanter specialises in the subtle art of hexes. Instead of directly damaging foes, hexes disable and debilitate them, allowing the Enchanter to finish the helpless creatures in combat. The Enchanter begins with a lightly enchanted dagger, a robe, and the Book of Maledictions. |
Enchanters are mages who have specialised in the subtle art of Hexes. Although not as directly damaging as Conjurations or the elements, high-level Hexes offer a wide array of very handy effects.

Strategy
An Enchanter's inital focus is in Short Blades and Stealth. They have a rough time at XL 1, but as soon as they get access to extremely debilitating hexes in Ensorcelled Hibernation and Confusing Touch, they become excellent stabbers. While there are some devastating Hexes spells available to late-game characters, be prepared to branch out at least a little, as enemies with high willpower can cause serious problems if you can't take them out in one hit.
While outshined by their other spells, Tukima's Dance allows you to take advantage of otherwise tough, weapon wielding enemies like ogres and orc warlords.
