Azuth is the Faerûnian patron of wizards and mages (as opposed to Mystra, who is the sphere's goddess of all magic). The power serves as Mystra’s friend and adviser, though he's struggled desperately since the Time of Troubles to reconcile the old Mystra with the new, and with the resulting difference in the Weave that blankets Toril.
