Common nickname for Prodigal Sorcerer, a blue Magic:The Gathering card that can tap to deal one damage to any target.

This again spread to Pirate Ship ("Tim-on-a-ship") and Tawnos's Wand ("Tim-on-a-stick"), other cards with the same ability.

The name is taken from the enchanter in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

The name, Tim the Enchanter, comes from a character played by John Cleese in the Monty Python movie Monty Python and the holy grail. In it, Tim causes three explosions then teleports up to our heros and says "I am a wise and powerful enchanter. You may call me ... Tim."

Tim leads them to the white rabbit of caerbannog, which gets blown to tiny bits by the holy hand grenade of Antioch.
