Arcanologist

A scholar or scientist who specializes in the study of magical theory, arcane energy, and supernatural phenomena. Unlike a wizard who performs magic or an arcanist who channels it, an arcanologist focuses on the physics of magic by analyzing ancient artifacts, ley lines, and the historical development of spells through a scientific lens.

(See: Arcanology)

Etymology:

Root: Latin arcānus (hidden, secret, or private). This stems from arca, meaning a chest or box. In a literal sense, it refers to knowledge "hidden in a box" away from the uninitiated.

Connecting Vowel: The Greek -o- is a standard linguistic bridge used to connect a Latin or Greek root to a suffix beginning with a consonant.

Study: Greek logos (word, reason, or discourse). When used as the suffix -logy, it indicates a systematic branch of study or a specific science.

Practitioner: The suffix -ist (from Greek -istes via Latin -ista) denotes a person who practices, holds, or is an expert in a specific field.

Literal Translation: One who practices the systematic study of hidden secrets.

"We found a glowing crystal in the ruins, but we had to call in an arcanologist to make sure it wouldn't explode if we touched it."

"Arguably, Frieren is one of the ultimate arcanologists aside from Serie."
