Retromancer
A form of wizard or sorceress who uses direct influence magic, a form of magic that uses the imagination to produce a desired effect. The reason for the term retro is that the limits of your powers often coincide with past experiences and memories, which in turn, forms a clear picture of a desired effect into your mind, and then into reality. Therefore Retromancers grow stronger with age and wisdom rather than trained use of their abilities.

womp
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort.
