Wizard

Wizards are a class of the Hive species. In combat, Wizards fly over enemies to unleash magical attacks on their enemies, their powers granted by The Darkness. In addition, they protect themselves with powerful shields that do not take additional damage from Shock weapons. They are also capable of a short teleport, though they do not use it often. Wizards can be identified by their crumbling robes and elaborate headgear.

Trivia

 * During the Alpha, the line "that Wizard came from the moon" (as uttered by the Ghost) had gained infamy among the Destiny fan base. The phrase, in fact, has became so famed within the community, that Bungie made the meme it spawned into a t-shirt in commemoration of the Alpha testing period. Within an hour, the shirt went on to become the best-selling item among the current inventory in the Bungie Store.
