Under the alias of "Qui Quae Quod", the Third Doctor briefly passed himself off as a wizard to the residents of Devil's End, apparently holding the word to be the masculine counterpart to the "witches" familiar to the Devil's End townsfolk, (TV: The Dæmons) although the title of "wizard" could in fact be applied to a woman. (PROSE: A Honeycomb of Souls) A peasant who had been sent to 1970s London by a time eddy also believed the Third Doctor was a wizard when he saw him. (TV: Invasion of the Dinosaurs) However, after dropping the "Qui Quae Quod" disguise, the Doctor insisted to Thorpe that he was not "a magician or a wizard or anything of the sort", maintaining that his and 's abilities as Time Lords and men of science were entirely different from folkloric "magic". (TV: The Dæmons) Lord Quiquaequod, an alternate reality version of the Eighth Doctor, was also a wizard. (COMIC: The Glorious Dead)

On prehistoric Earth, the Fifth Doctor met a wizard called Kalid who was able to conjure realistic illusions to hypnotize people. However, Kalid was finally revealed to be in disguise. (TV: Time-Flight)

In the myth of the Pandorica, as the Eleventh Doctor explained to Amy Pond, "the most feared being in all the cosmos" was sealed in the Pandorica after being tricked by a good wizard. River Song commented that she hated good wizards in fairy tales as they "always turned out to be him.", referring to the Doctor. (TV: The Pandorica Opens)

Merlin was a famous wizard associated with the legends of Camelot. Many individuals used the name at one point or another, including (PROSE: The Creation of Camelot) and several incarnations of the Doctor, (TV: Battlefield, PROSE: One Fateful Knight, Legends of Camelot) as "the Merlin" was actually the official title for the astrologer of Camelot's court, rather than a personal name. (PROSE: The Creation of Camelot) One Merlin had a sister called Ganeida, who was a wizard like himself; they were both of half-demon heritage. (PROSE: A Honeycomb of Souls)
