Not quite as old as Orko from '86, but did no one play Loom in the early 90’s?
Musical fabric of reality wielding mages. If you looked under their hood you’d be sucked in and eaten.
What’s the mug right one with the light blue robe and beige hat?
I recognize him but fail to remember from where
Vivi - Final Fantasy IX
More generally, it’s a Black Mage from the Final Fantasy series, of which Vivi is one.
I actually don’t believe the one in OP’s picture is Vivi, who normal has more adornments on his clothing . It looks more like an older version of the class, like this one from FFIV artwork.
Shout-out to my fellow 1980s kids who played the first Final Fantasy and named their Black Mage character “ORKO” because it just felt right.

First was Orko from He-Man.
They’re not wizards, but did Jawas from Star Wars establish the aesthetic?
Jawas didn’t wear the wizard hat. Same reason Marvin doesn’t fit.
Looking at the picture above, hoods seem to count. If not, then half of them don’t apply to the rule.
Came in here to defend Orko’s legacy. Was not disappointed.
Thank you, was looking to see if someone recognized the OG.
Cousin It?
Orko
TIL Jawas are wizards.
They’re artificers
I AM THE BLACK MAGE! I CASTS THE SPELLS THAT MAKES THE PEOPLES FALL DOWN!
I like swords.
Digimon: “We have eyes-only wizard at home.”
I swear to god if you speak ill of Wizardmon I will beat you senseless with a two-by-four
Does he (?) evolve into, like, a Mecha toaster or something?
Or digi-volve or whatever they do in digimon
Shout out to Vivi! Love you my little homie.
He taught us so much about facing death with dignity.
It is truly a great style.
(Player character from Wizard of Legend)

Where’s my boy Green Mage?
I’m sorry, seems that it’s not his time
The art in Final Fantasy has always been my favorite. I haven’t even played in years but I still follow a bunch of their artists. Yoshitaka Amano, Akihiko Yoshida, on and on
