Legacy of Sorasil quest pack?

Should the Mystic be considered more like a female barbarian or more like a female wizard? Her stats are more like the wizard but for what I remember, a "mystic" in D&D is usually some kind of martial arts warrior.
In Legacy of Sorasil she is pictured like a female barbarian wearing a cloak and chainmail bikini. Is this because a mystic can't wear armour (like the wizard) or because she is more like Red Sonya?

You know the 'conflict' around the Mystic art shown in the Amiga game... I don't see if we could take it as a good reference according to the stats the Mystic has in the videogame. In my opinion, I would consider the Mystic more like a Wizard, even weaker in strength but stronger in Magic (3 BPs, 7 MPs).

I took a different perspective with my own version of the character... she is stronger in combat than the Wizard (by a little) and her magic is initially stronger (able to have a greater combination of combat and healing magic, rather than having to choose one emphasis or the other), but later on the Wizard (through completing many quests) will ultimately be stronger in magical terms.

Granted, this was me using the game stuff as inspiration not trying to translate it 1:1 into the physical board game world.

In the videogame she is a wizard. I think she has access to heavy armor at the cost of some stats and/or spells. In the videogame this doesn’t have a big effect on gameplay since spellcasters cannot endure melee combat anyway, and you can cast the same spell until your mana runs out. For the boardgame we’re trying to make the characters more unique.

reading her description and stats in the booklet she seems to be even stronger than the wizard with the use of magic
