Reply to comment by NextEstablishment856 in [WP] You are a budget mage. While most of your colleagues use costly ingredients, rituals that take weeks to prepare and use a new spell for every problem, you only know a few spells, use common household ingredients and prepare rituals within minutes.

Or Discworld style, as it's canon that its mages are deeply into theatrics and many spells can be carried out very simply - consider the Rite of Ask-Ente or Grandma Weatherwax's repertoire.
