Wizards would be a new hostile mob, similar to the witch. When lightning strikes a villager there is a small chance that it would become a wizard instead of a witch or they can spawn naturally (rarer than the witch of course). They have 25% more health than the witch and still use potions, however, they use a new item as their primary attack, the staff! (More details later). The wizard would probably look like blue witch with a long white beard.
Since witches have the witch hut I think it is only fair to give the wizard it's own structure as well, I imagine it as small tower that spawns in the snowy mountains or extreme hills. It has a guaranteed wizard inside of it and both witch and wizard spawn rates would be slightly increased near it. The loot would be relatively mid tier with higher chances of potions and enchanted books.
The staff would be a rare drop from wizards and is UNCRAFTABLE. It does not spawn in any structures either(even the wizard tower). That is the only way to get it. It would be repaired with amethyst shards. It would come with a new type of enchantment called a spellbook. Spellbooks would be used to change the ability of the wand and other stuff (ideas in the comments). Unenchanted it would just be an arrow but without the ark. Staffs cannot have more than one spellbook at a time. Wizard can drop enchanted staffs. Feel free to post ideas for spellbooks in the comments
Tldr: wizards are stronger witches with their own structure and exclusive drop, the staff
