witch

Classically described, a witch typically wears a witch_hat and probably a black dress or robe. They may have a familiar and/or broom of some sort. A witch is usually female or a related gender -- but can be male or their own related genders -- and are known to do magic, fly on a broomstick, inflict curses, and/or brew potions.

Do not confuse with

witch_costume - Tag this for characters appearing to wear the costume that imitates witches. This is important because the witch tag will also add magic_user to posts, but characters merely wearing a witch costume probably aren't visibly magic users. For such characters not actively performing magic, you must decide if the character's clothing and accessories and the setting and objects filling out the art bias the character toward being a proper witch or the imitation of a witch and tag the character accordingly.
