he said they CAN live without their heads.
also it'd be cool if wizards had some fairly useless power genetics-wise. like the ability to control the growth of your facial hair or something dumb like that.

The wizards in-game are very clear references to DnD wizards, with spells such as Magic Missile, Fireball, and Shocking Grasp. In DnD, any person in the world can be a wizard if they have the capacity to understand and the determination to learn magic.
This, of course, precludes the possibility that a ss13 crewmember could do it.

implying ss13 crewmembers have anything like "mental capacity" or "determination"
