Official Biography[]
Species: Female Humanoid
Born: Sometime during the Dark Ages
Size: 5 feet tall
Habitat: Lives in dark places all over the world
This black magic woman possesses supernatural powers given to her by the devil. The witch is famous for casting evil spells on people - bringing them bad luck or turning them into different objects, such as animals, vegetables, or minerals! She has the ability to perform incantations which will make objects move or become invisible. This ugly old hag can be easily identified by a birthmark that is hidden under her armpit or in her hair. Her ability to fly through the sky on a broom is also a dead giveaway! If you ever catch a witch, she can be destroyed by being burned at the stake, or will melt if water is poured over her. However, you might want to grant her one last wish... a spell on your brother or sister, perhaps?

Origin[]
A witch is practitioner of witchcraft, the use of magic or supernatural powers to inflict harm and misfortune to others. The belief in witchcraft has been known worldwide through the ages, but the most commonly known is witchcraft in Medieval Europe. In medieval and early modern Europe, accused witches were usually women who were believed to have used black magic against their community. Usually, accusations of witchcraft were made by their neighbors and followed from social tensions. Suspected witches were often intimidated, banished, attacked, or sentenced to death. European witch hunts and witch trials led to tens of thousands of executions.
