Some kind of mind affecting school?

Something involving scrying/divination.

Are we just going with schools of magics? Or Types of Magicians also?
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Even in that, I can see differences.

Summoners: gaining assistance, guidance, protection, defense, attack, etc. by employing external sources

Abjurers: defense, protection, warding

Diviners/Prognosticators: finding out the past, present and/or future using interpretive practices

Druids: communicating with, connecting to and gaining favor with nature

Archmages: leadership, guidance, defense and protection

Sorcerers/Sorceresses: darker means; deception, social/situational manipulation, employing dark entities (please disregard modern sources)

Wizards: learning and dealing with everyday life; think Merlin from The Sword in the Stone (he's like a teacher and adviser)

Witches: dealing with everyday life (helping self/others, hurting others, etc), governed by their alignment

Enchanters/Enchantresses: seductive deception, charm and cunning (likely Hypnotism or Persuasion)

Puppeteer: sheer control; no need to attack when you can simply force others to do it for you

Hags/Crones: dealing with everyday life (helping self/others, hurting others, etc), guidance, etc, governed by their alignment

Warlocks: harming others, or helping them with their OWN purposes in mind

Necromancer: learning and advancing...um...less than moral objectives (using the dead, as the name implies)

Apprentices (of any mage); to learn (duh), and take on the same agenda as their master

Zealot: understanding, control (even mimicry) of one element of nature considered to be more powerful than the others

Wiccan: helping self and others by natural means

Mystics: following occult ways of doing things (arcane versions of any of the above mages)

Indubitably...

Or at least boring.

Elemental Magic with Plants.

..
You know I saw something on a DnD forum that could be interesting- not exactly for this roleplay, but just in general.

Not really, and tje continjing of traits allows for easier role playing. And if you recall, the character john ssmith from elemental planes was entirely different from the other characters.

Yes, and he was also not easily remembered. I certainly don't recall him...

Similar personality traits.

I'm not saying you need to put out a bulletin that explains them all outright. I'm just saying, if we wanted to, could I add a character from a more obscure class of mage?

I like your way somewhat better..

Mostly because if we go classwise, there shall be much arguing over the specifics of certain classes...

I chose the way I did partially because of that and partially because I don't know all the classes.
