A wizard who skipped the homework and got power from the family tree instead.
means A person who practices magic or claims supernatural power over events and forces, especially through dark or forbidden means.
from From Old French 'sorcier,' tracing back to Vulgar Latin 'sortiarius' — literally 'one who deals with lots' or 'fate,' built on Latin 'sors' meaning 'lot, chance, fortune' (the same root that gives us 'sort' and 'consort'). The original image isn't a cackling figure with a wand, but someone who casts lots to read or bend destiny — magic as fortune-telling's darker cousin.
