[attr="class","item"]
sheila is a small member of the marsupial family. he looks much like his genetic cousin the kangaroo only much smaller with an aptitude for climbing rather than jumping. he has a reddish brown fur and is of average height for a normal creature being about the size of a standard house cat.
[break][break]
this creature loves to pick fights. he is a little annoyed at his name but she was young and for the longest time assumed he was a female as she is. he prefers to go by Sile but won't correct his witch because he is mildly afraid of her. in his younger years he was known to be dressed up by her quite often and given noogies so he mostly goes along with what she wants in fear.
[break][break]
despite this 'trauma' he won't admit it but he did love the tea parties they used to have. he is stubborn and can get himself into trouble with his mouth.

PUGILIST
Non-magical skill - bronze
Magic? Weapons? This character doesn't need any of those to crack some skulls! They're a pro at unarmed combat, including punches, kicks, and grapples. Though they can dominate the competition in almost any a brawl, they still have a ways to go before they're catching blades between their fingers.

Fire Skills
[attr="class","item"]
SKILL: ROYAL FLAMEADV
Elemental skill - Fire
When using this skill, the witch's flames will shift to a purple hue instead of the usual orange/red spectrum. These flames, although harmless to material objects and creatures, can burn through illusions and other similar magics. Though sensory illusions are the simplest spell to burn away, masters of their elemental craft have been known to incinerate spell-induced mental and emotional manipulation. When being conjured, this skill causes the witches eyes to take on a gold color.
Fire Techniques
[attr="class","item"]
Call of the Dragon
Technique - Fire
the witch super heats the air inside their mouth before blowing it out creating a fire breath like that of a dragon.
[attr="class","item"]
CREATION
Technique - Fire
The most simple of techniques, creation is the ability to create fire. This enables the witch and the familiar to create balls of fire to lob at the enemy. This technique grows in strength with the witch, meaning a fledgling might not be able to do much….
[attr="class","item"]
Dance of the Phoenix
Technique - Fire
the user creates a phoenix of fire that locks onto a target and chases after them, resting only when they have burnt their target to cinders or until they are dispelled. the size and effectiveness of this technique is dependent on a witch's skill - amateur witches would have trouble maintaining the phoenix's focus for long, which often leads to the phoenix dissipating after a few moments. experienced witches, however, have no trouble maintaining the phoenix's focus - some master witches have even been rumored to maintain multiple phoenixes at the same time!
[attr="class","item"]
Fist of Flame
Technique - Fire
the witch encases their hands (or, in some cases their feet) in fire. although it does not damage the witch, it causes their unarmed attacks to burn their target. at more advanced levels, the witch is even able to create small combustive bursts on impact. although this spell requires fairly little mana to initially cast, mana is continuously drained the longer it remains active.
[attr="class","item"]
Melt
Technique - Fire
applying this may be extremely slow for beginners, but this technique allows a witch to superheat a material and melt it down.
[attr="class","item"]
Searing Pillar
Elemental Technique - Fire
This technique superheats the ground just below the target with mana to create a large pillar of fire and debris. The field of influence is highly visible, creating a sort of magic circle below where the magic will hit. It is often accompanied by a kind of whistle steam tone just before the attack strikes. This technique cannot be performed in the air or underwater, and is difficult to perform in arctic conditions.
[attr="class","item"]
Wings of Fire
Technique - Fire
the user creates a pair of fiery 'wings' that extend from their back and can be used for both defense and offense. the wings can help to redirect or burn up projectiles aimed at the user - the extent of which it is effective is dependent on the skill and experience of the witch - while they can also be 'flared' in an attempt to burn opponents. fledgling witches would find it difficult to shape and maintain the shape of the wings, much less manipulate them, but experienced witches are said to be a sight to behold on the battlefield.

General Scrolls
[attr="class","item"]
DANCING FAELIGHTS
SCROLL - GENERAL
Casting this spell will cause floating balls of firelight to appear, the number of which depends on the ability and the desire of the caster. The witch can brighten or dim the lights, and mentally command them to move within a radius around themselves dependent on their rank. The faelights are intangible, and will last until dispelled by the witch, by purification, or once an amount of time has passed.
[attr="class","item"]
Energy Ball
Scroll - General
a quick spell that allows the witch to fire a ball of force energy outward. the size and amount of power behind it are dependent on the witch's rank.
Augmentation Scrolls
[attr="class","item"]
Augmentation for Dummies: Durability
Scroll - Augmentation
this scroll caters to the basics of augmentation - the ability to manipulate the attribute of durability. upon being cast on another witch, or themselves, the subject will find their durability increasing several fold. while this boost isn't much for beginners, more experienced witches can cast augments that will increase their durability by thrice their natural ability. works best against blunt force damage versus sharp force damage.
[attr="class","item"]
Augmentation for Dummies: Strength
Scroll - Augmentation SYN Can synthesize as PERMANENT (ANY AFF) items
part of arkhanka themisis' 'witchcraft for dummies' series, this scroll caters to the basics of augmentation - the ability to manipulate the attribute of strength. upon being cast on an item, person, or themselves, the subject will find their strength increasing several fold. while this boost isn't much for beginners, more experienced witches can cast augments that will increase their strength by thrice their actual ability.
[attr="class","item"]
AUGETE: CRESCO
Scroll - Augmentation
one of the few surviving scrolls that were retrieved from the ruins of the coven that founded augmentation, this scroll dabbles in increasing the rate of growth of organic matter. it was created to originally quickly ripen ingredients for alchemy and this version of the scroll mainly deals with ripening herbs, force-growing trees or others.
[attr="class","item"]
Left Hand of the Divine (ADV)
Scroll - Augmentation
a scroll that takes the augmentation of strength to its logical extreme. the witch pours a large amount of augmented mana into the chosen extremity and releases it at the point of contact, giving the blow monstrous strength in that moment. this spell can only be utilized in a single limb at a time and increases the strength to massive levels depending on the skill of the witch.
[attr="class","item"]
THANE’S GRIMOIRE, THEORY B: SKELETAL AUGMENTATION
Affinity Scroll - Augmentation SYN Can synthesize as PERMANENT (ANY AFF) items
This scroll directly enhances the caster’s (or another target’s) skeleton. This makes their bones, for a short amount of time, near unbreakable. It doesn’t help the caster’s strength, but can provide a solid foundation for incredible feats of durability, strength, etc.
[attr="class","item"]
THANE’S GRIMOIRE, THEORY C: FLUIDITY OF BODY
Scroll - Augmentation SYN Can synthesize as PERMANENT (ANY AFF) items
this scroll is applied throughout the body of any living creature, and grants it hyper flexibility. a beginner might be unable to accomplish more than intense gymnastics but a master would be able to achieve inhuman results.
[attr="class","item"]
Velocity
Scroll - Augmentation
unlike physical or self-augmentation, some witches choose to study the properties of inanimate objects. this grimoire covers the properties of matter and how to enhance and degrade them. this scroll allows the user to enhance (or decrease) the ‘velocity of an object.’ this works well on any kind of hurled object whether offensively or defensively. it is increasingly difficult when dealing with magical objects or objects with extremely low or high velocities.
[attr="class","item"]
Weapon Augmentation: Keen Edge
Scroll - Augmentation SYN Can synthesize as REUSABLE items
this spell augments the sharpness and durability of a blade to help it cut cleanly through stubborn matterials. it can be cast in the heat of battle and maintained via continuous mana drain, or via a fairly long ritual to enhance a particular weapon permanently. the hardness of the material which the blade is able to cut depends on the strength of the witch which cast the augment.
Starcalling Scrolls
[attr="class","item"]
ASTRAGIC GRIMORE: GEMINI THE TWINS
Scroll - Starcalling
creates stardust clones of the user. these dark, twinkling clones cannot use mana and appear obviously inhuman, but are able to touch and use physical attacks. the strength of the witch determines how many clones can be created at once, how strong they are, and how long they last -- at novice rank, 2 clones of average human strength for a handful of minutes is standard. after being moderately damaged, they disintigrate into stardust.
[attr="class","item"]
ASTRAGIC GRIMORE: LEO THE LION
Scroll - Starcalling
Creates a brilliant explosion around the user with intense heat, a blinding light, and intense shockwaves said to sound like a lion's roar. Masers of this affinity are said to be able to make a light so blinding that it can make the darkest night apear as bright as day for miles around. Though the blast emanates from the witch casting the spell, anyone within arms reach will remaim unharmed by its effects.
[attr="class","item"]
ASTRAGIC GRIMOIRE: LIBRA THE SCALES
Scroll - Starcalling
anyone inscribed with this sign develops an altered interaction with gravity. the witch can inscribe one of two sides of the scale, either increasing the gravity on the object or person to slow them down, or decreasing the gravity of the person allowing for them to jump higher than normally possible.
[attr="class","item"]
ASTRAGIC GRIMORE: TAURUS THE BULL
Scroll - Starcalling
Creates a large, but thin wall of dense stardust in front of the user. This spell is similar to the Earth element's Fortress technique, but more readily synergizes with other starcalling spells which interact with stardust.
[attr="class","item"]
Bag of Starlight
Scroll - Starcalling SYN Can synthesize as LIMITED USE items
the starcaller can compress stardust into a bag to be released at a later time. depending on the density, the stardust may float around and gently illuminate a room when released. or, it might be packed in so tightly that it explodes like a flashbang.
[attr="class","item"]
Constellar Grimoire: Canus Major
Scroll - Starcalling SYN Can synthesize as PERMANENT (Starcalling ONLY) items
like the loyal and stalwart dog while the witch is in the light of this constellation their strength and stamina are heightened. this blessing can be shared among multiple witches at the cost of diluting the overall power of the spell.
[attr="class","item"]
Constellar Grimoire: Eye of Horus
Scroll - Starcalling
allows the witch to ascribe to eye constellation upon a surface as a temporary minds eye. the length of time it remains active depends on the witches rank with fledgling witches only managing minutes before the constellation dissipates from lack of mana.
[attr="class","item"]
Constellar Grimoire: Orion's Light
Scroll - Starcalling SYN Can synthesize as PERMANENT (Starcalling ONLY) items
orion, the great hunter of the sky, can be called upon to brighten a dark night or to illuminate a path for the user. while the constellation is still visible in the sky, the witch receives heightened instincts and senses such as smell, sight and hearing.
[attr="class","item"]
Constellar Grimoire: Ursa Major
Scroll - Starcalling SYN Can synthesize as PERMANENT (Starcalling ONLY) items
by calling upon ursa major, the user can receive the blessing of strength from the bear constellation, finding that their physical attributes are all enhanced for as long as the caster can maintain the image of ursa major in the sky. the blessing can also be given to another witch.
[attr="class","item"]
FAULKHEIT’S GRIMOIRE: OFFENSIVE CAPACITIES OF STARDUST
Scroll - Starcalling
a witch can now force stardust to explode in a burst of light and heat. stardust explosions, while stronger depending on the witch’s rank, are really minor when compared to the explosions wrought by other affinities and are usually used as a distraction for a quick escape.
[attr="class","item"]
STARMAKER’S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY: CREATION
Scroll - Starcalling
an exceptionally well illustrated grimoire written by the beloved witch lunella lacehart, this particular scroll talks about the creation of a starette. it allows the user to bind stardust together at a focal point to create a floating ball of light and heat. a skilled user can make dozens of starettes at once, but knowledge of the rest of lunella’s scrolls is required to fully utilize starettes. the user must have access to the sky or stardust to create one. at novice, this scroll no longer occupies a scroll slot.
[attr="class","item"]
STARMAKER’S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY: SYZYGY
Scroll - Starcalling
this scroll can only be used by witches that can maintain three or more than three starettes at once. the witch lines them vertically and, after a second’s delay, a hyper-condensed and extremely powerful blast of stardust is created. the further away the three are from each other, the stronger he blast and larger its range.

Reusable Items
[attr="class","item"]
Cupid's Wings
REUSABLE ITEM - UNIQUE
these small white wings are magically enchanted to attach at the shoulder blade and allow the wearer to fly. although they aren't as fast as a broom, their compact nature makes them highly maneuverable (after learning to use them properly, of course).
[attr="class","item"]
Dreamcatcher
REUSABLE ITEM - ADEPT DREAMCATCHER
this sturdy circlet decorated by a geometric web of string is able to ward off most types of magical mental intrusion. they are most often hung at the headboard of a bed to protect the sleeper against dream invasions, but can also be secured to a bag or other item to protect the wearer. especially powerful spells may still be able to force their way through.
[attr="class","item"]
Thorn Band
REUSABLE ITEM - ADEPT BAND OF THORNS
at a glance, his golden metal armband appears to merely be fashionable accessory with a rose-shaped ornament. however, when the wearer is attacked, a vine-like cord will lash out at the attacker with a thorny retribution. its reach is limited, and will only snap out at incoming threats which target the head and upper body (when worn on the arm) on the side of the wearer where the band resides. some witches wear multiple of these bands across their arms and legs for increased range of protection and more painful retaliation from the metal thorns. created by a novice-ranked enchanter.
Limited Use Items
[attr="class","item"]
Aphrodite's Dust
LIMITED USE ITEM - Adept - 2 Uses Left
a potion that enhances the beauty of the user, making them radiate a magical and gorgeous aura. unfortunately, it also makes monsters highly attracted to the witch.
[attr="class","item"]
DANCING FAELIGHT
LIMITED USE ITEM - NOVICE - 1 USE
A slip of paper with runes layered on it, channeling mana into the item will summon forth a floating ball of firelight. The witch can brighten or dim the light, and mentally command it to move within an 20 meter radius of themself. The faelight is intangible, and will last until it is dispelled by the witch, by purification, or once an hour is up.
[attr="class","item"]
Flask of Strength
LIMITED USE ITEM - Adept - 3 Uses Left
when ingested by the witch, it enhances their overall strength considerably, allowing them to perform feats otherwise thought of as unlikely. caution is advised when using this: the witch’s body has not physically strengthened enough to sustain the effort for extended periods of time. careless usage typically nets strains or broken bones, though experienced witches can sustain its effects for notably longer.
[attr="class","item"]
Hair Dye Potion
LIMITED USE ITEM - Adept - 3 Uses Left
sarah glatzer runs one of the most popular salons for witches in sundial. in a rather abnegated attempt at teaching witches of all ages and orientations how to care for their appearances, she published a book full of recipes for different concoctions that are sure to beautify even the ugliest duckling. all the potions in this book are patented and cannot be sold by anyone but her business, but miss glatzer encourages all witches to try brewing them at home. while illusionists may choose to change their appearance at will, the less fortunate witches are forced to recur to less practical alternatives. hair dying potions may be fairly easy to brew, but this scroll offers a base recipe that does not only last longer than most commercial hair dyes. however it also has little impact on the a more sensitive person’s scalp.

i want to be strong. i want to be feared. i want to be powerful. the desire for power... strength... fear. it can be see in every interaction she has. to be strong is to have the power to change the world. fear to strike into the hearts of her enemies. the strength to take what is hers. through her reconnecting with her weak cousin, to threatening show producers with heavy violence, to protecting a mute boy from a problem she created... to even fighting against a voice trying to control her. these have only lead her to one conclusion. she needs more power. more strength. its like an emptiness... a hunger... it burns inside her. and... she kind of likes it.
