Witch

You are a witch. You made a covenant with another witch to harness the power of witchcraft. This mentor taught you the oral traditions that witches have been following and perfecting for millenia, and now they are yours to use. You are able to manipulate the energy of spirits to your advantage, whether you use it for spellcasting or martial prowess. The bond you share with your mentor is deeper and stronger than any other, as it’s the source of your craft. The path of the witch is arduous, but you have the knowledge of those that came before you and the guidance of both your mentor and the spirits you summon to your aid. You do not walk alone.

d6 Witch Mentor
1 My mentor is one of my parents. Our family has been practicing witchcraft for generations and I’m ready to pick up the mantle of the witch.
2 I found my mentor when I ran away from home at a young age. They took me in when no one else would. They live in the wilderness as a hermit, and although they can be cold and emotionally distant, I love them and I know they love me too, in their own way.
3 My family owed a gargantuan debt to a powerful and rich witch. The witch said that if I became their pupil the debt would be settled, and my parents agreed. I have lived in their manor ever since as both a servant and a witch pupil.
4 My mentor is the high witch of a powerful coven in a bustling city. I was taught witchcraft from an early age along with many other pupils. Their name is known among witch circles the world over, and I’m hoping that some day my name will overshadow theirs.
5 My mentor died at the hands of those that see witchcraft as evil. I am hunting down those that killed them to avenge them.
6 My mentor is one of my parents. Our family has been practicing witchcraft for generations, and I was forced to become a witch against my will to continue the family line.

Feature: Witch Eye

You instinctively know if the person you are speaking to is a spellcaster of any sort, or a witch (as in, you know if they have a witch subclass). Additionally, you are more likely to gain preferential treatment at covens that are not your own, and among other witches.
