The High Wizard is an enemy in Final Fantasy IV: The After Years. This enemy will appears mainly in groups of two or with other enemies. She primarily uses Firaga, Blizzaga and Thundaga for her offense, and will counter all physical attacks dealt to her with Osmose, so having high magic defense will reduce the amount of damage from the spells and the amount of MP stolen from Osmose. Each time she counters with Osmose her restarts their turn. They are not difficult foes to defeat due to her low HP.

Etymology[]
Wizard is another name for a Magician. Wizards in fantasy literature and RPGs often draw from the fiction of J. R. R. Tolkien, whose Wizards of Middle-earth are a group of beings outwardly resembling Men but possessing much greater physical and mental power. Each Wizard has robes of a characteristic color, Gandalf the Grey being a quintessential example.
