Turjan - Powers and Abilities

Powers and Abilities

Like the other wizards of the Dying Earth, Turjan practices magic by memorizing written spells, which he immediately forgets upon casting them. In his first appearance, before his tutelage under Pandelume, Turjan can memorize only four of the most powerful spells. Turjan also relies on magical devices and amulets which protect him from harmful magic and can undo harmful enchantments.

In addition to his spellcasting ability and magical artifacts, Turjan is trained in other sciences, such as mathematics, the ability to create artificial humans from vats, and the secrets of superhumanly prolonged life.
