WITCHES
EX: Bonnie Bennett
BASICS
A witch is a person who is born with the power to affect change by magical means (Witchcraft). While many witches are the self-proclaimed "Keepers of the Balance," other witches have been known to work against the Balance and use their power for personal gain.
Magic is a practice of witchcraft that encompasses many different types of activities including astrology, divination, spell casting, and spirit communication. It includes the practices of many cultures, nations and religions as well as many books and writings from ancient times. Depending upon the individual, some witches practice their power by certain belief systems, such as Shamanism, Voodoo, Wicca, or any number of other magical practices from countries and cultures all around the world. Although the majority of traditional witches are commonly portrayed as being kind and selfless humans who use their powers to maintain balance within the world, in the case of Esther and Qetsiyah, it has been proven that some witches are independent thinkers who may go against the Balance of Nature by practicing their powers for dark and sinister deeds.

Telekinesis: The power to move objects and persons through mental influence.
Spell Casting: The power to change and control events through the use of incantations and more.WEAKNESSESDisbelief: The act of denying or disbelieving in one's potential could cause a witch to inadvertently suppress their magical power.
Distraction: Denying a witch from concentrating or giving full attention to their spells, may render them ineffective.
Fear: The condition or feeling of being afraid may prevent a witch from properly accessing their powers.
Herbs: Ingestion of certain herbs can cause a witch to lose consciousness and prevent them from using magic for a undetermined amount of time. The Lobelia flower prevents concentration and the practice of magic and can be used to weaken a witch as one would weaken a vampire with vervain.
Magic: Witches are still susceptible to the powers of witchcraft. This is inclusive of mystical objects such as the Papa Tunde's Blade, and Dark Objects. A siphoner can siphon the magic from a witch where prolong exposure may lead to death.
Mortality: Despite their mystical attributes, witches are still human and share many of the same weaknesses as non-supernatural beings (e.g. age, decapitation, disease, heart-failure, suffocation, snapped neck, etc.)
Overexertion: The excessive use of magic could lead to disorientation, nose bleeds, unconsciousness, and if taken to the extreme, death.
The Huntress' Blood: Witches can be poisoned by consuming Rayna Cruz's blood. The sickness is currently uncureable and the infected witches have less than a week of life once the black markings start appearing on their body. While regularly consuming/injecting her blood, it will suppress all magic of a witch, as well as prevent magic from working on the witch, as seen when the Armory could not perform a locator spell on Bonnie Bennett.AVAILABILITYUnlimited
