Great Sage

"A wise and powerful mage who roams the world helping others."

- Mii Cast description

The Great Sage is a major supporting character for the first half of Miitopia. They appear in several cutscenes providing words of support for the Hero throughout the adventure. The Great Sage joins the party in Karkaton after finding the first three faceless team members and leaves after defeating Cerberus. While the Great Sage is known to possess great power, they claim to hold back during their battles so that the Hero can learn to be strong on their own. While accompanying the hero, they use Tower of Flame, Cure, and a single-target version of Lightning.

After defeating the Dark Lord, the Dark Curse possesses the Great Sage, turning them into the Darker Lord. The rest of the game then focuses on defeating this new villain in order to rescue the sage. When the evil is finally defeated, the Great Sage gives the Hero the options to break or save the corrupted soul that was left behind. If the soul is saved, the Mii that is recreated from it becomes the Great Sage's apprentice, as shown in the end credits.

Physical Appearance
The Great Sage's skin color and face depend on the Mii that is cast for the role. For their clothes, they wear a thick white robe with turquoise gradients on the bottom. The inside of the robe is jade. They also wear white pants and green shoes. The Great Sage always wields a silver staff that is roughly 3/4 of their height. The staff is composed of a simple shaft with a structure on the top that resembles an infinity symbol with an orb on the top loop.

The Darker Lord has a very similar robe, but uses a dark-colored staff with its signature eye motif on the top instead of the infinity symbol. In addition, the Darker Lord floats instead of walking.
