Belgarath The Sorcerer

He is the greatest and oldest wizard of his world, but also likes the small life of

a thief or story-teller.

As senior brother among the disciples of Aldur, he, too qualifies nicely to the Wizard Sage

category. He and all other wizards of his world are no normal human beings but special

ones, chosen by their god to a life of immortality and power in his service.

Belgarath, like the others in this group, tends to do most of his work in the

background and supply the central character of the saga (Garion) mostly with

advice and direction.

Together with his daughter Polgara they work on making sure

Garion appears at all.

Polgara, on the other hand, is not your average womanly fairy

god mother. she's more like an average version between the

Wizard Sage and the Adventuring wizard, guised in the body

of a beautiful woman with a temper that could blow off the world.

Inspite of her temper she manages to her long and tedious job of

raising the generations of Garion's fore-fathers to make sure he'll

be born.
