[ Witch/Warlock ] Witches and Warlocks are humanoid beings that possess magical capabilities. The Witch is female, while the Warlock is male, and neither gender is typically ‘evil’ like they are often portrayed as in story tales. This species is incredibly fast learners and can teach themselves anything, whether that is another language or a new spell. This ability is unique to them and helps them further their magic quicker but to an extent. At some stage, every Witch/Warlock owns a creature called a Familiar. These beings come in any form and come to the Witch/Warlock in a time of need. Over the years, they help their master though many obstacles in their life. There are many different kinds of Witches/Warlocks. Some specialize in certain things and some have been consumed by the pull of dark magic. Witches/Warlocks have to tread carefully with the magic they use. Death by being burned at the stake was often the penalty for using dark magic or murdering/hurting someone using any sort of witchcraft. If the Witch/Warlock admitted to the crime beforehand, they were killed and then burned instead. Some, however, were beheaded or hanged instead, very rarely some were imprisoned or banished. The reason a witch is often burned at the stake was that fire cleansed all magic and broke any residual spells that they may have cast in their time. Witches/Warlocks have a normal life span, but a few have managed to pull off the darkest and powerful there is, to become immortal.

[ Harnesser ] Long ago, there were tribes of Harnessers scattered around the globe. They were a seemingly human species, reflecting them in every physical way, but they are much different and are believed to be a subspecies of witch. While they may not have had super strength or blinding speed, they could certainly wield a weapon and use it to their advantage. They worshipped a god, who they believed bestowed great power within several objects. They were drawn to this power and would seek out those artifacts, as they would call them. Upon retrieving, they would finally unlock an ability that is unique to every person. The true purpose of having one of these artifacts isn’t to gain its abilities. The object is merely an anchor. Without it, they wouldn't have control over their powers and it would have drastic consequences. They would undoubtedly go insane, their mind consumed with darkness, or the power would literally tear them apart from the inside. This is why they can’t access their ability without having something to contain all of their power. They are drawn to certain objects to save them from destroying themselves. The item itself could be anything, whether it’s a sword, staff, gun, or even objects with seemingly no value. They are not immortal and have the lifespan of a human. Anything that would kill them, would kill a Harnesser.
