Though witches are not the foul, ugly beings described in myth. Warts and green faces are things of legends. Witches can be anyone, even your best friend, co-worker, or the person who stands next to you, as they hide in their skin. But they are still not beings to mess with, for these are those who can turn those into frogs. They can do much worse. They can do deeds of good and deeds of bad. All depend on how they work. And there are some who are half blooded of these magical beings, or don't even know they are. Come, enter one of the several circles of the witches.
They do not have any general appearance. They look like another other person in the world. They don't wear pointed hats, black cloaks, and have green skin. They look as normal as everyone else.
Abilities:[/u]
There are plenty a witch can do. Enchanting jewelry and objects, making and brewing potions, playing with voodoo, and performing in circles. From the making of curses to conjuring peace bringings. It all depends on a witches ability to perform certain acts. Witches practice magic with the aid of herbs, gemstones, effigies, and incantations, all of which may be used in a spell. However their magic is innate and does not always require external aids, although these can accentuate their power.[/blockquote]
Witches are weak to few things, as their very normal like and very much like a human. The carry human fears, human ways, and the same weakness as a human does. But something about werewolves and halflings weaken a witch's power. The reasoning is still unsure, but often witches hate Werewolves and Halflings for this, and sometimes that do not know who is a werewolf or halfings, as witches do sometimes feel weak at times for various reasons, known or unknown. Often, witches make jewelry to help protect them from werewolves and halflings, but still their powers are weakened and the jewelry only works in the Lycan estate. As one William Shakespeare had said in Macbeth, Witches are slaves to their own prophecy. Witches are very serious about prophecies and do not joke about them. And they see to it that they are fulfilled or never happen, depending on whether their good or bad, for either witch and prophecy.
Even though Witches are very human like, they are not as human in their lifespan. Instead of living a full human lifespan, witches live twice as long at times. And because of their magic in their veins, after the age of 20, the witches aging physically takes twice as long then instead of aging like normal people, causing them needing to move a lot so their identity remains hidden. Witches prefer not to be found out, for, in some places, witches are not always welcomed, so they stay hidden. But in areas were witches are more excepted, some witches will tend to stay to, since no one questions them.
Circles:[/u]
There are three main circles that a witch is in. Whether it be for dark, light, or just as a neutral hold. But all witches at least belongs to a single circle There is also a smaller circles that belongs to the three main circles. But the three main circles is rules by a single circle that would be very much a court for humans to witches.
This is the circle for those with dark intentions. They serve in the name of the Keeper in what ever that needs to be done in his name, or what he wants. There is a small section of chosen witches of the most powerful in this circle, the Sisters of the Dark, that serve the Keeper in any way. Even as far as to kill themselves of command. These Sisters of the Dark transfer messages to the others to fulfill, that is if the Keeper wants you.
Circle Twilight:[/u]
This circle is for those of light intentions. They serve the Creator and work to the Creator's will. They have sworn to never to harm a single living thing with or without magic, unless for survival or defense. Sisters of the Light are the witches with the strongest light magic of the group and they are the one who reign supreme in this circle. The receive prophecies from the Creator and translate them for all the witches, whether their attentions may not be on the same side. These witches are often healers to help disguise themselves.
Circle Daybreak:[/u]
A circle of neutral intentions. This circle has sworn to protect the world and humanity, whether it's from the dark, the light, or prophecy. There is no leader of this group, other than the founders. This circle also doesn't only consist of witches. As along as the mean no harm to any one of the circle and has sworn to the same thing as they have, any one may be part of the circle. This circle is the newest of the circles, and is not favored by the other two circles for the fact they are so different with their circle that the other two.
Inner Circle:[/u]
This is not really a circle some much as it's the highest authority to all witches. They do not punish for being a dark, a light, or a neutral. It's a court of nine witches, three most powerful witches from all three circles. There are things that are not allowed for a witch to do, such as the Confession Spell on purpose or tell a human of being a witch, unless it was necessary for some good reason. These nine witches judges for a punishment, usually ending in a Memory Potion that could make witch and human alike not remember a certain part of their memory. But as for the Confession Spell, that is punishable by death in all cases that are found guilty of casting it on purpose. It depends of their ruling of choosing.[/blockquote]
Sub Types:
Lost witches are witches who have lost the knowledge of the fact they are a witch, often due to lost lineage traces or the witch gene is often becomes recessive and forgotten about. Lost witches have no idea they are witches and are usually to be thought to be crazy or an extremely powerful psych. Rarely does a lost witch learn of their heritage and led to live more normal lives than witches. Also, their life span is more average to a human, a few years over a averaged lifespan of a human and they age more normally, since the magic in their veins is not as strong. Often, a long line lost witches occur in these situations. Lost Witches can also happen if the witch parent does not care for the child and no one knows their parent was a witch. Also, if a witch feels that their child is not worthy or would be too powerful of a witch, they do not have to tell the child of their heritage, thus another Lost Witch resulted.
Psychs:[/u]
These are only half witches and do not share as powerful magic as a normal witch or a lost witch would have. These are the people a lot more human like and have a tenancy to live normal lives. These people are atoned more to the world than most, but are more averaged out. They tend to live normal lives, age normally, and have a normal human lifespan. Often, lost witches occur in these situations. Psychs can be either male or female evenly.
Non-Gifted:[/u]
A non gifted witch is a exceedingly rare happening, as they are only blessed with the ability that no magic at all could effect them and will lead normal lives. They carry the witch gene still. The often occur in the females, but males can possibly non gifted as well. Usually, there's only one in every few lifetimes.[/blockquote]
Sexual Activity and Genetics:[/u]
As we all know, witches do need to pass their blood lines and heritage to the next generation. And sometimes, a witch can make a mistake on who to have a child with. Slip ups happen. But Witches are not just female, as the can be male, but often the male only carries the gene recessively and it's rare for a male to be an actual witch, but it does happen. And even though their male, their still called a witch.
Appearance:[/u]
They do not have any general appearance. They look like another other person in the world. They don't wear pointed hats, black cloaks, and have green skin. They look as normal as everyone else.
Abilities:[/u]
There are plenty a witch can do. Enchanting jewelry and objects, making and brewing potions, playing with voodoo, and performing in circles. From the making of curses to conjuring peace bringings. It all depends on a witches ability to perform certain acts. Witches practice magic with the aid of herbs, gemstones, effigies, and incantations, all of which may be used in a spell. However their magic is innate and does not always require external aids, although these can accentuate their power.[/blockquote]
In creating of jewelry, the mold of the piece must be created by the witch. They can only use the metals Silver, Gold, and Bronze, and the herbs infused into the metal. The shape of the metal and the infused herbs will effect the enchanted piece in some way. If it's for a certain person, you need a piece of them, like a hair or saliva, to boost the effect for them. Just put them in the herbs to infuse it all. (Infuse being while the metal is still liquid and over a strong heat source.) Certain gems and certain cuts of the gems effect the enchantment. It all depends on what you need. The same goes for enchanting items, except you don't need to make the objects or the gems. Herbs and a few assortment of spoken words of a spell will do it for the objects.
In creating potions, an assortment of gems, herbs, and things can be brewed together. It's all simple. The only thing that's difficult to achieve a good brew depends on how long you let the things, like the herbs, brew out. Longer the better. But if too long, it could brew out the power. If it's for a certain person, you need a piece of them, like a hair or saliva, to boost the effect for them. The more you have of them, the better the effect for them only, just don't brew them, take their body parts to be brewed in the kettle or they'll know what's up. Also, they'd probably die before they could have the potion. The final thing is the shape or design of the bottle, as certain shapes and designs effect the potion. Glass or Crystal bottles also boost the effect.
In doing voodoo, it's almost the same as the potion and jewelry. Wax dolls crave to look exactly like the person you wish to curse or help will work the best. In not, then a wax doll with the general gender of the person will work well. If you are planning to hurt someone, a red cord of red ribbon works. If it's helping the person, a green cord or green ribbon works for that. Mix up the two, and nothing will happen or does just the opposite of what you want. But for this you NEED, as it is not an option, a piece of them like hair or saliva. If you use a hair, twist it around the cord/ribbon and warp it around the part of the person that needs to be effected. If it's saliva, either tie the thing that has the saliva on it under the cord or get if on the cord and ward it around the part of the person that needs to be effected. As you place the spell on the doll, you must picture the thing you wish to happen to the person. Once done, keep the doll in a place were no one will remove the cord or ribbon for the spell breaks and causes worse harm to the person. Undoing the spell for a witch or wizard is just the reverse order of how you make it happen, just picture it undoing itself and say the reversal spell.
In Spell Casting, Witches are much like the wizards and sorcerers you hear of in myths. They have spells for defense and attack, incantations, and such. All they need is their hands and a well knowledge of the spell they wish to cast. To this, there are extensive studies, and usually, Sisters of the Light will help a witch be able to use these abilities if strong enough. Some witches, even in their long life, may never be able to learn ever spell there ever was.
There is one ability all witches shy from. Powerful witches are born with what they call the Con Dar. The Bloodrage. The Bloodrage came from a witch a long time ago that was once the leader of all the witches and was extremely powerful. This witch in question had thought she was powerful beyond anyone. When anyone would question her, was her enemy, or did wrong towards her, she'd killing them in a rage, then killing their families and loved ones on top of it. And for those she couldn't kill or didn't feel like killing she'd use the now forbidden Confession Spell on them, making them tell the full truth and fall for her. As she was killed by her sisters of different circles, this witch muttered a curse that will effect every witch in such a way. Witches never mean to use the Con Dar, as it sometimes just takes over at times of great stress and a witch can not control their powers. The Con Dar is the reincarnation of that witch long ago coming out of the curse placed by the witch. The Bloodrage causes the witch effected great pain. Their eyes go blood shot and the iris turn the color of blood. They go through a killers rage, can even harm those who they love and know, and use the forbidden Confession Spell, which no one ever learned how to do other than that witch who has cursed all other witches. The Confession Spell is very powerful, and when in the Bloodrage, it's almost limitless. The person that uses the Confession Spell can control the person they confessed, and they can tell nothing but the truth. The only problem with the spell is that once someone is confessed, they are like a slave to your will. They'd also would be in love with you, but it would be false because it was a spell. There is no way to remove the Confession Spell
(Note: Witches do not do anything that would make people suspicious of their class. Like poor witches would only have herbs with them and their jewelry would be made from twine twisted in with herbs.)

(NOTE: Lost Witches are not born a lost witch on this list. They are considered averages on this listing. Please go up to the Sub Type: Lost Witches to see Why.
*=These human children are recessive carries of the witch genes and could appear later on in later generations of the future.
**= In this instance, the Male is a recessive carrier of the witch gene.)
In case a witch does slip up and ends up within child of a vampire, werewolf, or halfing, in tradition, witches would kill the child to keep them from being all powerful. But since the times of tradition of a witch has blurred or faded in a sense, witches will take mercy on these children, but they will never learn of their witch heritage for they'll hold great powers. Often, these children will be born only as a human child(All three types), a vampire(Vampire sired), or a werewolf (Lycan sired/damed).
