Winter Witch -Updated 2018-

[DocRob]

The Winter Witch is not necessarily a witch, or even female. However many of them have been named such by local farmers and peasants. In truth the Winter Witch is merely a specialized spellcaster, focusing on ice spells.

Note 1: The Winter Witch casts spells on either charisma or wisdom. The highest of the two stats is used to determine if a spell can be cast or not. All spells list the base ability needed to cast them.

Note 2: The Winter Witch uses Ice Power to cast spells. Your amount of Ice Power increases as you gain more levels in the Winter Witch Class. All spells list how much Ice Power they cost.

Note 3: Due to their icy nature Winter Witches are immune to cold spells but do take more damage from fire spells.
