A ffwrsva is a wizard's skullcap that has become typical of wizards of Medibgö and Pytharnia since the time of the Medibgóëse Empire. In many cities and other jurisdictions within the Empire of Magdala, it obligatory for licensed wizards to wear the skullcap and unlawful for non-wizards to wear it. In Medibgö, wizardry is often associated with noble rank. Medibgóëse wizards of noble rank have a pair of metallic wings on the cap, with one wing on each side. The house crest as a metallic badge, may be worn on the front above the forehead. Commoner wizards who serve in a household will not have the wings, but will still have the metallic badge of the house crest on the ffwrsva.
In the late 27th century (2670 to 2710), the peaked or "tufted" skullcap was popular, beginning in Medibgö.
