Sion Eltnam Sokaris, a Spiritron Hacker.
Wizard (ウィザード, Wizādo?), also called Spiritron Hacker (霊子ハッカー, Ryōshi Hakkā?, localized as "Spirit Hacker"), is the new class of magus in the world of EXTRA. They are a new generation of mankind from after the era of magecraft ended - the magi of the old world have disappeared, and the era of Mystery has drawn to a complete close. From then on those who called themselves "magi" came to represent Spiritron Hackers, a new generation of mankind.[1]
Characteristics[]
A Wizard refers to an A-class Hacker. Compared to an average Hacker, Wizards possess special abilities and can dive into the cyber world at a soul level.[2]
The Etherlite techniques that the Eltnam use has become synonymous with Spiritron Hacking.[3] Twice H. Pieceman is said to be the first Spiritron Hacker.[4]
Outside of EXTRA, Spiritron Hacking exist in other timelines, but fewer magi devote their studies to it.[5]

Mystic Code Codecast.
- Codecast (コードキャスト, Kōdo Kyasuto?) - Program: Simple Spell (簡易術式, Kan'i Jutsushiki?) used in cyberspace. A Wizard writes and compiles the program code in advance, and activates it by passing magical energy through it. There are two types of Codecast. External Codecasts are one time use consumable Codecasts, while Internal Codecasts are installed into the body... or rather the Spiritrons structures [that make up one’s body in cyberspace]. Codecasts that have been installed are very powerful, however seeing as they change the fundamental nature of the user, not many Wizards choose to use them. Codecasts implemented through the use of a Mystic Code fall somewhere in the middle [in terms of power and effects on the user].[8] The idea for Codecasts came from Caules Forvedge, who collaborated with Atlas to make them.[9]
- Finality (決着術式, Kecchaku Jutsushiki?) - Special kind of Codecast.[10]
- Hacker (ハッカー, Hakkā?) is able to:
- Visual Perception Digitization (視覚のみの電子変換, Shikaku Nomi no Denshi Henkan?) - A simple spinal insert interface connection. Information is directly streamed into the brain, so they avoid the trouble of transforming each type of information into a digital signal. Favors input only.[2]
- Visual and Touch Perception Digitization (視覚、触覚の電子変換, Shikaku, Shokkaku no Denshi Henkan?) - A wired connection from the nerves to the net. It allows a Hacker to project the basic components of their being onto the net. Input/Output capable, and more powerful. However, the user is unable to project a human form in the cyber world. This is at best a simple projection, and as such is not recognized as a life form. Their existence circuit is read from their body, and they just manipulate that projection. They are unable to change or revise their circuit.[2]

“The minds of people became used to being managed and regulated, and civilization stagnated. There are no great tragedies, however there are also no new discoveries. Everyone is pessimistic in this flavorless world where you can only await death. This is our “reality”.”
Fate/EXTRA is set on Earth in 2030.
The world of EXTRA differs from that of Fate/Stay Night in that it has a different time line and events starting from 1970. History took a different path.
Mana, the energy required to carry out large scale magic, has dried up, and real magic has been lost from Earth.
The magicians of old have disappeared from center stage, and the era of magic has drawn to a complete close.

Wizards. In Fate/EXTRA “Wizard” refers to A-class hackers.
Compared to your average hacker, wizards posses special abilities and can dive into the cyber world at a soul level.
Ordinary hackers fall into two categories:
- Visual Perception Digitization (only visual)
(This is done through a simple spinal insert interface connection.
Information is directly streamed into the brain, so they avoid the trouble of transforming each type of information into a digital signal. Favors input only.)
- Visual and Touch Perception Digitization.
(This is done through a wired connection from the nerves to the net. It allows a hacker to project the basic components of their being onto the net. Input/Output capable, and more powerful.
However, the user is unable to project a human form in the cyber world.
This is at best a simple projection, and as such is not recognized as a life form. Their existing circuit is read from their body, and they just manipulate that projection. They are unable to change or revise their circuit.)
However, wizards are capable of far more than that, they can digitize and spiritize their consciousness and physical body, creating a copy that is sent inside [the cyber world].
It is the materialization of soul inside the cyber world.
As for cyber bodies in SE.RA.PH, they refer to the spirit form of three components: body, mind, and soul.
Hacking knowledge and skills are not particularly important for wizards, physical ability and mental prowess are far more useful.
Having magic circuits (also known as imaginary nerves) in your body, and the ability to clearly conceptualize your digital self is essential to help translate the true essence of yourself accurately into a digital image in the cyber world.
The way of conceptualizing one’s digital image differs from wizard to wizard.
There are a variety of methods; some use computer processing,
others use meditation to give birth to their image,
and some even take drugs to escape from reality.
In present day 2030 Viritual Spiritron hacking has become possible through an external interface, but magus-class hackers remain a rarity.
Due to magus having human rights, even the West European Plutocracy couldn’t monopolize them. Aside from those under the control and management of the United Nations, there remains a never ending list of countries who try to harbor free magus behind closed doors.
◆
The definition of life is considered to be “the ability to change the environment you live in through your own actions and of your own accord.”
Since wizards can intervene in the cyber world through their souls, Moon Cell accepts them as living, and thus their advance into the cyber world is possible.
Pioneering, expanding to new frontiers is, in a way, the greatest meaning and sin of mankind.
To wizards who posses this ability, it’s not too much to say that the cyber world is like a second reality.
A physical body is merely a “home” of sorts to a wizard.
If the physical body of a wizard on Earth were to die, it would simply mean that they would not be able to return “home,” and they would remain in the cyber frontier. As long as their existence in the cyber world is not destroyed, their soul would not disappear.
(However, the empty shell that is a Wizard’s real physical body protects them from change in the cyber world, and the loss of it will quite easily and unavoidably transform the structure of their intelligence, as well as their sense of values.)
To a wizard, the only true death is the death of their cyber existence.
Only after their souls have burned out and crumbled away will they become scrap that is no longer able to be revived.魔術師【事柄】
ウィザード。EXTRAにおけるA級ハッカー。
通常のハッカーに比べて、魂レベルで電脳空間にダイブできる異能者。
通常のハッカーは、
・視覚のみの電子変換。
（脊髄挿入型のインターフェイスによる簡易接続。
情報を直接脳に送り込めるので、各種情報をデジタル変換する手間が省ける。恩恵はインプットのみ）
・視覚、触覚の電子変換。
（有線でネットに神経を繋げ、存在階梯を電子上のものとする。インプット、アウトプット、ともに能力向上。ただし電脳空間では人間としてのカタチは作れない。
あくまで一端末としての介入で、生命とは認められない。既存の回路を閲覧し、操作するだけ。回路そのものの変更・改革は不可能）
となるのだが、ウィザードはその上、自己の精神、自己の肉体を電子化ならぬ霊子化し、分身として送り込める。
即ち、電脳空間における魂の物質化である。
SE.RA.PHにおける電脳体とは、肉体・精神・魂の三要素を霊子化したものを指す。
必要なものはハッカーとしての知識・技術ではなく、肉体・精神的な才能。
魔術回路と呼ばれる架倥神鰹を肉体に持ち、自身の本質を電脳として明確に数値化できる異才が必要となる。
このイメージ化の方法はウィザードごとに異なる。
演算処理によってデジタル化する者もいれば、
瞑想によってイメージを生み出すもの、
薬物投与によって逃避するもの、と様々。
２０３０年現在、疑似霊子ハッキングは外付けのインターフェイスで可能となったが、魔術師クラスのハッカーは希少である。
魔術師には人権があるため、西欧財閥すら独占できない。国連が管理、所属させるものとされているが、フリーの魔術師たちを秘密裏に囲おうとする国は後を絶たない。
◆
生命の定義とは、住んでいる環境を自身の意志・行動によって変革できるもの、とされる。
魂を以て電脳空間に介入したウィザードはムーンセルによって生命と認められ、電脳空間における開拓が可能となる。
開拓……フロンティア、パイオニア……こそ人間が行うもっとも大きな意義にして罪。
その可能性をもったウィザードにとって、電脳空間は第二の現実と言っても過言ではない。
ウィザードにとって肉体はあくまでホーム。
仮に地上にある自分の肉体が死んでしまっても家に帰れなくなるだけで、開拓地に留まり、そこで消滅しないかぎり、魂が消え去る事はない。
（ただし『変化から自分を護る』殻である実肉体が失われると、その知性体の構造・価値観はたやすく変貌していくため、変質は避けられないが）
ウィザードにとって本当の死は電脳死。
電脳空間で魂が焼け落ちた時こそ、彼らは再生不可能の塵になるのである。 - Visual Perception Digitization (only visual)

The nanofilament wire wielded by Sion.
Although it's used like a whip in the game, it's actually designed to attach to the opponent's skin, integrate with their central nervous system, and read their thoughts and memories. It is because of this technique that the name Eltnam has become synonymous with spiritual hacking.
Though the thought-reading function seems vile enough, its ability to "merge with and copy memories and experiences" is actually even more dangerous. This inhumane and demonic "acquisition of another's life", which even the Atlas Institute shuns, is a technique unique to the Eltnam family.エーテライト【用語】
正式にはエーテル·ライトと呼ぶ。シオンが使用するナノフィラメント。
ゲーム上では鞭のように使っているが、本来相手の皮膚に繋げ、脳神経に接続して記憶や思考を読む為のもの。この技術から、エルトナムの者は霊子ハッカーと呼ばれている。
相手の思考を読む、という機能に目が向きがちだが、“知識·経験を共有·複写する”という事の方が脅威と言えよう。非人道的かつ悪魔的な“相手の人生の獲得”としてアトラス院でも忌避されているエルトナム独特の技法である。 - ↑ Fate/EXTRA - Epilogue: The Holy Grail War End

A special type of codecast known as a “Finality”.
A secret spell that a renowned magus family passes down in its lineage.
Sword Camelot is the secret codecast of the Harways.
It’s a castle used so that two knights who value honor can determine who is the better of the two without the interference of interlopers.
The wall of flame encircling their surroundings cannot be destroyed unless it is by the welder of a holy sword who is against the duel.
Oh and that magic missile that a certain magic user used to destroy this reeeeally priceless relic ought to eventually fall in the category of Finalities.ソード・キャメロット【術式】
