Witches

Witches are supernatural creatures in Riverbank, Ohio who practice witchcraft. Although any human can practice witchcraft, those born in witch families have witchcraft as an innate ability and have a more natural affinity for it. In witch families, they typically inform their child of the families' heritage on their sixteenth birthdays as that's when their latent witch powers ascend, including their affinity for spellcasting, the power of ressurection, and the deacceleration of their age.

Rarity: Common

Extended Life-span
Although essentially a human, witches can live up to over one-hundred years. Even though this is achievable by the normal human, over time, a witches age gradually becomes slower, the witch managing to maintain it's youthful look. There are many ways to achieve this, either by casting a spell, having someone cast a spell on you, have a curse placed on you, and simply be born with it.

Spell Casting
Spellcasting is the main feature of the witch, being able to cast spells by concoctions of potions, herbs, incantations, and rituals. Many spells will have been demonstrated throughout the show and a witch family usually will have a grimoire full of different kinds of spells for a witch to demonstrate and use.

Ressurection
The ability to bring a soul back from the Afterlife and have them walk on the living plane. This is considered a difficult, time-consuming, and deadly ability that is maintainable and better used when within a circle. More experienced witches can resurrect themselves from the dead, this usually happens unwittingly and the circumstances of their death and them being alive now seem to bemuse them.

Telekinesis
The ability to control physical matter, including inanimate objects, animals, humans, and supernatural creatures with the mind. A strong psychic ability that is strong, harmful, and dangerous, yet very powerful and useful for witches. This is only attainable by a circle of witches, or in some rare cases, can be born with it, however, they are only said to be in a witch family.

Pyrokinesis
The ability to control the element of fire, by either manipulating it or conjuring it up with their hand. This is a useful weapon and it has no other purpose than to wreak havoc, cause damage, and burn away someone's flesh. This is only attainable by a circle of witches, or in some rare cases, can be born with it, however, they are only said to be in a witch family.

Mortality
As humans can still practice witchcraft and become a witch themselves, this requires witches to be human, which is in fact true. Witches do not have any power that grants them invulnerability, healing, or immortality, meaning they can die by any means that would kill an ordinary human. They, however, can use spells which can grant them temporary invulnerability, healing, or immortality.

Circles
Circles require to be compromised of at least four witches to be able to be formed by the Circle Bounding Spell which will grant them the powers of telekinesis and pyrokinesis. If there are more than eight witches in a circle, that is when they become a coven of witches instead.
