"Secrets wait to be embraced in the whispers of primeval spirits. Curiosity never hurt anyone brave enough to go looking. So long as I draw breath and have strength to explore, I will ever look to deepen my understanding of things within our world and things beyond." - Lyla Greoghal, potions brewer

Signs that you were somehow different began at an early age. Animals and plants might behave strangely around you, either shying away or seeking to embrace you. Odd weather phenomena seem to follow you about, though perhaps this is coincidence. Whatever the case, the adults in your community noticed these strange behaviors. In your adolescence you felt a growing connection with the dark and strange side of nature, leading you to look for answers on your own. When a coven of witches found you and invited you into their ranks, you began to truly master your powers.

Witches often have many hobbies and one or two crafts that they pursue to perfection. What are you most interested in, and what do you fiddle with in your spare time? Does the ephemeral quality of music fascinate you, or are you more inclined to get your hands dirty making pottery or whittling toys? Are you more interested in brewing potions or training your familiar to achieve its maximum potential?

Talent PreReq Description Tags
Witch Entry Character Level 2 When you take this entry talent, you gain the following abilities.
  • Dark Presence. On your turn, you may take 1d4 damage to regain 1 spell point. This costs 0 AP and you may use this feature as many times as you want on your turn.
  • Familiar. You have a familiar. Your familiar has separate stats from you and acts on your turn, taking one action. You can spend some of your AP, make your familiar take its action, and then complete your own AP expenditure; or you could simply have your familiar go before or after you. Familiars are corporeal fae spirits that cannot be attacked or damaged. You can make your familiar take more actions by spending 1 AP per additional action your familiar takes. Familiars are widely varied among witches, and your familiar might have a single form or it might have several different forms that it changes between. You can change your familiar’s form during a Rest. Regardless of its form, you always use one of the three stat blocks: Flying Familiar, Crawling Familiar, or Hunting Familiar.
  • Witch Magic. Choose one: Occult or Primal. If you choose Occult, gain Initiate of the Occult unless you already have it. If you already have it, gain +1 Occult Power and +5 SP instead. If you choose Primal, gain Warden of the Primal unless you already have it. If you already have it, gain +1 Primal Power and +5 SP instead. Whichever you choose, END is your magic attribute.
  • Witch Power. Each time you level up and spend your Talent Point on a witch talent, you gain +5 SP and +1 Power in the source you chose.

Retired dolls look frayed and corrupted, and they contain the soul of the doll’s likeness.

As part of a Recoup, you may commune with one retired doll. The retired doll retains all of its bonded creature’s formative memories and basic information that the creature would have known. The doll’s disposition towards you will range from sullen to hostile as determined by your MC, and so gleaning information from a retired doll might take multiple conversations or coercion

If a retired doll is destroyed, its soul departs.

  • Level 30: Now, if you destroy a retired doll, the bonded creature’s soul is dispersed and it can never be resurrected. Casting Lesser Restoration or similar magic on a retired doll will harmlessly detach the creature’s soul from the doll, allowing it to pass on peacefully or to be resurrected.

Talent PreReq Description Tags
Witch’s Brew Witch Entry Each time you Take a Rest, you can use Witch’s Brew.
  • Witch’s Brew. Brew two potions of your own making. Pick two spells (or pick the same spell twice) from the Primal Source that have both the altering and the intrinsic tags. These spells cannot be higher than 15 SP and you cannot upcharge them when using this feature.

These spells are synthesized into potions and do not cost SP for you to create. When a creature drinks the potion, that creature gains the effects of the spell for the duration, considering the spell’s range to be “Self.”

These potions become impotent after 24 hours.
