Well, Vergil metamorphosized into a magician during the Middle Ages. There are all kinds of interesting tales about him.
Miraculous powers were also attributed to Pythagoras, and he even has the benefit of being the founder of a cult of sorts. Should we suspend any and all discussion about either of these two figures, and leave it up to the theologians?
A magician, eh? That's rather good.
Aha, I found him! http://www.livius.org/ap-ark/apollonius/apollonius08.html
