Magi and Arch Magi are level 4 creatures of Tower. They can be recruited from the Mage Tower. (Note, that the correct spelling is 'one mage' but 'many magi'.) Apprentice magi, under the mentorship of Wizards, serve as Tower troops before they become full masters of their craft. Both mage and arch mage units suffer no melee penalty for attacking adjacent enemies and reduce the casting cost of allied hero spells by two. Arch mage attacks penetrate cover and deal full damage to enemies behind siege walls.
Magi's attacks visually looks like bolts of energy, while arch magi's attacks are concentrated beams. They both use their staff to strike enemies in melee combat.
Although the documentation says that only arch magi ignore the obstacle penalty, but at least in some versions this is also true for magi.
Heroes with a specialty
Theodorus the Wizard has magi as a specialty, which increases the attack and defense skills of any magi or arch magi for each level attained after 4th level and gives them a speed bonus of 1.
