I'm thinking along the lines of an itinerant mendicant "holy man" in the northern Colonies (Although not too far north as I doubt he would survive wandering the harsh lands of the far north. However it would have to be a place with at least a moderate amount of superstition). He would believe that his magic is supernatural in origin with his spells containing invocations of various spirits/gods (depending on his actual beliefs which would be based on info we don't currently). Of course such things are nothing to do with the actual magic but I'm guessing that towards the north magic and superstition/religion have become so mixed they are hard to separate.
