Witchcraft is the practice of magic, mainly practiced by Witches and warlocks, that widely means practice of, and belief in, magical skills and abilities that are able to be exercised individually, by designed groups, or by people with the esoteric secret knowledge.
Description[]
This type of magic encompasses many different types of activities including astrology, divination, spell casting and spirit communication. It includes the practices of many cultures, nations and religions as well as many books and writings from ancient times. Depending upon the practitioner, some witches draw their powers from nature and others from the moon, fire, blood, the stars, the sun and even the cosmos itself. Witches and warlocks can strengthen their magic by ingesting Moonflower, or Jimsonweed.
Humans can also practice witchcraft though spells. They, however, appear to be unable to use magical powers that usually wouldn't require a spell if used by a witch.
