The Mystic is one of the three [[Artisans]] introduced in Diablo III. Like the [[Blacksmith]] and the [[Jeweler]], the Mystic is located in the [[Caravan]] area, and handles various [[NPC]] merchant chores, including item sales and [[crafting]] requestswhich moves with the character between each act.
==The Mystic's Functions==
The mystic's primary function is to [[enchant]] items, adding magical bonuses to them. Her official description She was initially said to craft spell-caster items such as wands and staves, but it is not known if she still possesses this ability. Here's a quote from the [[Caravan FAQ]] upon , with the initial Artisan announcement listed more functions than the possesses in the final game:information.
::The mystic creates [[scrolls]], [[potions]], magical weapons, [[spell runes]], and [[charms]], and can also [[enchant]] items.

The Mystic's main utility comes from her ability to add bonuses to all sorts of items. This system was detailed in the [[BlizzCon 2011 Panel: Gameplay & Auction House]], and discussed in Blizzcon 2011 interviews. Here's [[Andrew Chambers]] speaking on the topic.

There is not yet a list of the Mystic's types of enchantments or the levels of training at which they become available. [[Training]] the Mystic to learn more enchants works just like training up the [[Blacksmith]] or [[Jeweler]]; lots of [[gold]], lots of [[materials]], and dozens of [[books of training]].
==Mystic's Wagon==
[[File:Mystic-wagon1.jpg|thumb|200px|Initial wagon concept.]]
Concept art for her wagon was shown in the [[Crafting Sanctuary]] panel at Blizzcon 2010. The basic concept was of a wagon and accouterments with a rounded, organic shape, to make it stand apart from the [[Blacksmith]]'s wagon, which as a very rectangular shape, outlined with rigid, gleaming metal and ornamented with dozens of weapons and shining pieces of armor.
Like the other Artisans, the Mystic can be leveled up ten times, and her wagon changes graphics with each level.

==Mystic's Interface==
[[File:Mystic-interface1.jpg|left|thumb|125px150px|Early interface.]][[File:Mystic-interface-blizzcon2011a.jpg|thumb|300px|Mystic'sInterface.]]All of the [[Artisans]] have their own customized interface boxes. They all share the same [[interface]] window , in design and controlsfunction, though the available tabs differ by the functions of each Artisan. Each Artisan was originally set to have a customized (in appearance) interface window; you can see an early version of the Mystic's to the left, but this concept was scrapped during development and the backgrounds Artisan interfaces all share a uniform design as of their individual windows differ, to show the differences between themBeta test. The A shot of a [[BlacksmithDemon Hunter]]'s have been consulting the Mystic with her Training tab open can be seen in screenshots; they're wood and metal, with forge toolsto the right. Click it for a much larger view.
==The Mystic's Story==
When the Mystic was first revealed with teh other Artisans, many fans speuclated that she might be [[Adria]], the NPC witch from Diablo I. While an interesting supposition, this ultimately proved to be untrue.
