Witches are humans who possess supernatural powers (witchcraft). Witches are evidently very long-lived and seem to reside primarily on Earth. To keep their existence secret, witches avoid revealing their powers to ordinary humans, similar to fairies.
History[]
In 1665, before Dimmsdale was named, Timmy Turner, who had travelled back in time, discovered that Alden Bitterroot was a warlock. Alden was planning to trick the townspeople into naming the town after him.[1]
Powers and Abilities[]
- Witchcraft: Witches possess supernatural powers to an unknown extent. Alden Bitterroot was able to project his magical abilities through his hands, without the use of a wand or spellbook. Somehow, he was able to block fairy magic. Alden could levitate, project green energy bolts and fly on his broom (like many traditional witches).
- Supernatural Longevity: Witches seem to be extremely long-lived; Alden was able to survive for hundreds of years after falling into a well, possibly through the use of his magical abilities.
