Magic Man

Magic Man is a magician who ipso facto can perform spells and grant wishes. He is a major mainstay character who existed ever since the official release of Baldi's Basics 1 1/2. He also made an appearance in Congo's Edutainment Wonderland, a game that was permanently scrapped for multiple reasons. In that game, he would grant the player different wishes and would cast different spells.
== Description ==
Magic Man is depicted as a character with a 3D head and a distinctive black top hat. His features include black eyebrows, eyes, and a slightly curly mustache. He is adorned with a lazily drawn blue bowtie and blue shoes, complementing his black magician outfit embellished with 12 yellow buttons - 6 on each side. Additionally, he brandishes a purple-pinkish wand, his essential tool for performing magical feats.
==Mechanics ==
This character will always be active. If the player enters his room for the first time in a match, he will greet himself to the player and cast a random magic spell upon them. Like he says, all of his spells come with a consequence. There are a few spells he can cast, which includes:
*Despawning Baldi and granting bad luck. (Variable)
*Decreasing Baldi's Speed. (Good)
*Deactivating the principal for an exact minute. (Usually Good)
*Increasing the player's chances back to 10 if the previous value is less than said integer. (Good)
**Prior to The Foreign Deception, it was instead 'Making the principal put the player in detention for 99 seconds for every rule they break, regardless of how many detentions they got'. (Bad)
*Summoning an unseen force that tampers with the ventilation. (Bad)
*Teleporting the player to a random place. (Variable)
*Draining 1/3 of the Player's XP points. (Bad)
*Slim chance of no spell. (No effect)
If the player is granted bad luck by him, the principal will attempt to put them in detention for no reason, and Arts And Crafters will become angry at the player even if the player hasn't collected more than 4 notebooks. 
If the player tames Xavis successfully, the player will be teleported to his room. And the player can choose from one of 4 wishes:
#Teleport to a desired spot.
# Earn $10.
# "I don't want a wish from you you filthy old man" (In other words, it is the 'Empty Wish' option).
#Refill blood or remove bad luck.
Each of these wishes' functions are self-explanatory. Once the player has selected their wish, they will be affected by the wish they have selected, and Magic Man will thank the player again.
==Trivia==
*Like The Old Man, he is married to an unseen wife.
*He doesn't know Baldi's first name, hence he says "bald guy" when referring to Baldi.
*It is commonly believed that Magic Man's name was inspired by a character from Adventure Time who shares the same name. However, this is actually not the case. In reality, his name was inspired by a real-life radio station DJ who also goes by the name Magic Man.
*Before The Foreign Deception, the third favorable wish had a different self-explanatory name. It would instead make the player immune to all lethal characters for 45 seconds. This wish was replaced shortly after the introduction of invisibility potions by the empty wish.
*In V1.1 of A Similar School, a blackboard was added to the left side of Magic Man that shows a list of locations. The list is the same exact list used for when the player selects the teleportation wish after they have tamed Xavis.
*Prior to the Baldi's Basics 1 1/2 New Year Special, the "earn $10" wish was originally a different wish. The previous wish was to fill up the rest of the inventory with $1 bills. This was later changed in the New Year Special update, which introduced a new currency system.
* He is technically a combination of 3 characters.
**His random spells, as well as his line, "Here's your magic:" are inspired from Tricky's catchphrase and mechanics from BBRMS.
**The list of wishes that shows up when the player subsides Xavis are inspired from Frannie the Fairy's list of wishes.
**Of the 4 wishes, the teleportation wish is inspired from Ryanela Carter's mechanics, a character from a different mod. The overlay texture that shows which destinations the player can teleport to is also the same as Ryanela Carter's overlay textures.
*In Congo's Basics, he was made as a replacement for Aziza and Suheyla, both of whom were removed for religious and copyright reasons. He also took a few assets from said characters after they were permanently removed. If Aziza and Suheyla were not copyrighted, Magic Man would never exist.
**The lightning overlay that appears when Magic Man teleports the player to a random location has the same textures that Suheyla's lightning overlay used back in early versions of Congo's Basics.
**Xavis now belongs to Magic Man due to Aziza being removed from Congo's Basics Beta.
*Before even The "Just Beginning" School released, Magic Man had an unused magic trick, and that magic trick would be able to make all of the lethal characters go crazy. This spell went unused because it was too hostile.
