- Provider:(Runes) A mage (Druid or Sorcerer) character (Normally Promoted for soul and mana regeneration), whose main source of profit consists of selling spell runes to a single higher-leveled character or to a guild.
- The Providers was a colloquial term given to three non-humanoid beings who controlled the planet Triskelion in the M24 Alpha trinary star system. They appeared as disembodied brains contained in a device giving them life support and communication abilities. When Captain Kirk speculated in their presence in 2268 that they were the result of "primary mental evolution" they corrected him, stating they'd once had humanoid form, but after eons of devoting themselves exclusively to intellectual pursuits they had evolved into their present form. The aliens called themselves "Providers" because they believed the term was easier for the limited intellects of their slaves, whom they called thralls, to comprehend. If their race had another name, they never revealed it.
- The Providers are capable of great feats which are probably achieved by direct control of extremely advanced technology. These include the ability to instantly transport beings from light years away, and to neutralize other species' technologies (including communicators, phasers and starship defense systems). In 2267 Captain James T. Kirk gambled with the Providers for all the thralls' freedom and won. What happened to them afterwards in not known.
- "Provider" is the twelfth episode of the third season of Angel and the fifty-sixth episode overall. Written by Scott Murphy and directed by Bill L. Norton, it was originally broadcast on January 21, 2002 on the WB network.

| - The Providers are capable of great feats which are probably achieved by direct control of extremely advanced technology. These include the ability to instantly transport beings from light years away, and to neutralize other species' technologies (including communicators, phasers and starship defense systems). To entertain themselves, the Providers keep enslaved humanoids of several species (they refer to all of them as thralls: likely a word for slave or cattle in their language) from across the galaxy and treat them as domesticated beasts, providing for their needs as their name implies, but also putting them in gladiatorial combats for entertainment and practicing selective breeding to create better warriors. The Providers entertain themselves by making various gambles over thrall battles and use a kind of currency known as quatloos. In 2267 Captain James T. Kirk gambled with the Providers for all the thralls' freedom and won. What happened to them afterwards in not known.

- "Provider" is the twelfth episode of the third season of Angel and the fifty-sixth episode overall. Written by Scott Murphy and directed by Bill L. Norton, it was originally broadcast on January 21, 2002 on the WB network. Angel is now looking for money to raise, feed and educate his son. Angel Investigations begins to advertise. Fred builds the Angel Investigations website while Gunn distributes fliers all over LA. Angel Investigations now has more cases than they can handle. Three of these cases turn out to be scams and end badly for the team. Angel apologizes for getting carried away with the need to make money. He now understands that family and the mission are more important.
- The Providers was a colloquial term given to three non-humanoid beings who controlled the planet Triskelion in the M24 Alpha trinary star system. They appeared as disembodied brains contained in a device giving them life support and communication abilities. When Captain Kirk speculated in their presence in 2268 that they were the result of "primary mental evolution" they corrected him, stating they'd once had humanoid form, but after eons of devoting themselves exclusively to intellectual pursuits they had evolved into their present form. The aliens called themselves "Providers" because they believed the term was easier for the limited intellects of their slaves, whom they called thralls, to comprehend. If their race had another name, they never revealed it. The Providers controlled an immense power station, which they concealed a kilometer or more beneath the surface of their world. They could create and project their voices anywhere on Triskelion, and they controlled a transporter based on light that had a range of light years and operated nearly instantly. They could manipulate energy at least to the extent of neutralizing a starship's power systems. They provided sustenance and other basic needs to the thralls, and could punish the thralls directly or through their proxy, Galt. They evidently possessed significant planetary defenses, for they did not regard the arrival of the USS Enterprise at their world as a significant threat, stating that they could destroy it and make the incident appear to be a magnetic storm. To amuse themselves, the Providers captured humanoids and forced them to fight while they placed wagers on the outcome. Inasmuch as such fights were often to the death, they required a steady supply of humanoids. To obtain it, they practiced humanoid husbandry with their existing stock (selecting breeding partners) and kidnapped suitable humanoids from elsewhere in the galaxy via their powerful transporter. They claimed to use only "inferior specimens" but considering their own vast intellect and concomitant high opinion of themselves, it is likely they regarded all other forms of life as inferior to their own.
