Medicine man

A medicine man was a person (presumably male) who acted as a healer within a Native American tribe. Native American wizards sometimes became medicine men and attained positions of great respect within their tribes. However, No-Majs also served as medicine men, sometimes feigning magical powers to do so. These unscrupulous No-Maj medicine resorted to circulating malicious rumours about Animagi in attempt to prevent themselves from being exposed.
