The Mystic, Myriam Jahzia, is an NPC [[Artisan]] who will be added in the Diablo 3 Expansion, [[Reaper of Souls]]. She is not found as an NPC merchant in Diablo 3 Classic. Along with delivering lore and story via her conversations, the Mystic will provide item [[enchant]]ing, giving players the opportunity to reroll one affix on an item to upgrade the quality of that item. Enchanted items will become [[BoA]], making them untradeable. She is also the NPC used for [[transmogrification]], changing your character's appearance for purely visual reasons.
The Mystic was originally planned for Diablo 3 classic, and she was introduced along with the [[Blacksmith]] and [[Jeweler]] when the [[Artisan]] NPCs were revealed at Gamescom 2010. More details were added later that year at Blizzcon 2010, and the Mystic was initially set to craft spell-casting weapons like wands and orbs, along with her item identifying and enchanting duties. The functions of all the Artisans were reworked during 2011, and in early 2012 the developers announced that the Mystic would not be found as an Artisan in Diablo 3, though she might return at some point.<ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/diablo-3-progress-report-2 Diablo 3 Progress Report] - Blizzard, 19/1/2012</ref>
Standard disclaimer. Enchanting is a work-in-progress. Expect it to change before it’s done, but this is a glimpse at the current state. </blue>
==The Mystic and Transmogrification==
The Mystic is also in charge of the [[transmogrification]] feature to be added in [[Reaper of Souls]], which will give players the ability to change their appearance. Rather than displaying purely as their current equipment shows, players will be able to change their appearance to look like other [[gear sets]] and perhaps other non-item based looks as well.
Few details on "transmog" have yet been revealed, but more information about it is expected at Blizzcon 2013.
