The Mage is the class which specializes in offensive magic— Dragon Quest VII
Mage is a vocational class in the Dragon Quest series.
Mages specialize in casting destructive spells, but performs poorly at close combat. They can also use certain field spells to help the party in its adventures. The Mage is given powerful magical abilities when leveled fully, including BeDragon and Explodet. The Mage also has the Chance spell introduced in Dragon Quest II, which has a large menu of possible random effects: some very good, some very bad. Though Mages have high Intelligence, they are physically frail and cannot equip heavy weapons such as swords, axes, spears, or heavy armor. It is best to keep them in the back lines.

Usefulness
The Mage's spells are useful after the events in Dharma but when combined with the mastered Cleric class, the character can become a Sage and learn much more devastating spells and a Summoner afterwards.
IX
The Mage class is available at the start of the game and has the unique skillset "Spellcraft". Mages can also use skill points to learn Knife, Wand, Whip, and Shield skills. Their Coup-de-Grace is "0 Zone," which reduces their MP cost to zero for a few turns.
