Mystic is a semi-retired creature class.[1] Mystics, like clerics, are adept at channeling mana with their faith, but instead of devoting themselves to a religion, they learn magic through careful meditation. Mystics often have a special connection with the spirits of the deceased, granting them powers such as flight.
Most mystics are white and have threshold, and most appeared in the Odyssey block. Mystic is a class that isn't supported anymore by R&D. It was used to unify a group of creatures, but the type has not been added to creatures since.[2][3] The type could return if the right world and/or set required it but is unlikely.[4][1]
