	There is a whole host of witches within [[Warhammer fantasy]], scattered over all the different races of the [[Warhammer world]]. Mostly the term seems to apply to any sorcerer or mage who hasn’t had formal training, being a rustic magic user or in the terms given above for old crackling hags or dark seductresses. [[Witch Hunters]] of the Cult of Sigmar exist to hunt these unstable magic user down before their obsession invites the [[chaos\|ruinous power]] to their surrounding, harming and kill many innocents.

	The most famous ‘witch’ in this setting is the Witch-King [[Malekith]] of the [[Dark Elves]], although his mother ~~is the more the perfect~~ example of the archetype. Speaking of Dark Elves, they have the Witch Elves or its superior version called Witch Hags, who calls themselves the Brides of Khaine that engages in daily sacrificial ritual and slaughter with their venom tipped dagger in the name of their murder god [[Khaine]].

	One of the known examples of the human side is the ice witches of Kislev, who are known for their Lore of Ice, magic unique to the Kislevite mage. They are the decedents of Khan-Queen Miska, the first ruler of Kislev, and were inherited her power through blood. Tzarina Katarina is the current ruler of Kislev as well as being the most powerful Ice Witch. She is known for banning men from using magic in Kislev because men are yucky (also there is a prophecy of a man using Ice magic will couse Kislev's destruction). Olesya Pimenova from The End Times: Vermintide is an Ice Witch as well, but mostly specializes in the lore of shadow magic.

	There are two distinct sub-series in Discworld that are Witch-centric. The Lancre Witches, the older of the two, focuses on a small coven of witches in the region of the Ramtops known as the Kingdom of Lancre, a kind of Scottish Highlands meets Balkans meets twisted faerie tales country. The second sub-series, the Tiffany Aching stories, revolves around a young shepherd's daughter in the agricultural-focused hill country known as the Chalk who discovers that she is a witch and her growing into her role in a region which has been devoid of witches for some time.

	The Discworld witches are often considered to be Terry Pratchett's greatest contribution to feminism in fantasy; Pterry himself admitted a significant portion of why he wanted to write the witch-centric books was to contradict the general trend of witchly magic to presented as "cheap, nasty and inferior" to [[wizard]]ly magic - citing such examples as the Earthsea fantasy novels, where "weak as a woman's magic" and "wicked as a woman's magic" are common in-universe sayings. Some argue that the Discworld witches have actually been fleshed out and integrated into Discworld society that they make the wizards of the Disc pretty much pointless.

Some argue that the Discworld witches have actually been so fleshed out and integrated into Discworld society that they make the wizards of the Disc pretty much pointless. People who believe this haven't been paying attention though, and have somehow failed to notice that most Wizard institutions on the Disc are primarily concerned with teaching them to be too lazy to make anything explode.

	Whether or not witches should be considered monstergirls is actually a matter of some debate. On the one hand, they are, in many stories, beautiful women with supernatural powers and potentially dangerous inhuman traits, which is like the basic definition of a monstergirl. On the other hand, when you get down to it, "witch" can literally mean "female [[arcanist]]", making them more of a class than a race - thus, like the [[amazon]], there are proponents and opponents for their inclusion.

A good rule of thumb compromise would be “if magic is something that theoretically any normal person in-setting could pick up if given the opportunity or resources it’s just a class, but if casting potential is a purely in-the-blood trait (a la [[Harry Potter]]) then magic-users are a separate breed from regular humans and thus witches are technically monstergirls.”

	The second type, the Dark Mage, are once-human sorceresses who inadvertently turned themselves into monsters by conducting magical experiments that ultimately overloaded them with corruptive demonic magic. These "witches" are selfish hedonists who take a great pride in their voluptuous forms, and will do anything to achieve their goal. Whilst it's not stated, one can imagine that the two witches don't get on at all.

	Not too much else had changed; you get ''Hex'' ability, meaning your enigmatic patron gives you a familiar and you get more points to customize it, and with the proper feats you can make a multipurpose familiar that gives even Familiar Thesis wizards green with envy.

If your not particularly interested in using hexs in battle, the Witches Cackle feat can be defining as it allows the class to Sustain one spell as a free action.

	Putting it all together, this grants the witch a much wilder breath of things it can do compared to other full spellcasting classes but not particularly specialized.
