#witch forms

Whisperian Bottles or Vacuum Vessels

Equivalent to “winx” or basic form. Once a witch or wizard is able to store energy in their whisperian, they can use it to transform. As more of them have the Whisperian as more is a part of them, always with them and at the same time never completely.

The still excess of magical energy that oozes from the body, although not as noticeable as in fairies, gives rise to the characteristic witch marks around the eyes that may or may not be deepened according to power. Some say this is because "the eyes are the windows to the soul", but never say it near a fairy! Discussions on what wings are or not are millenary and why eyes and why not other part of the body too.

Back to the topic, many times they are actually not bottles but any type of container. It’s one of the first things to learn as a witch, an "infinite" space object container, in this case, exclusively to store their energy so that they can use it later. Then of course everyone makes some kind of miscelaneus subspace pocket in some jewel, but that's another matter that Griffin aproves. Most covens make their Whisperian of the same theme. Cards, crystals, perfume bottles, keychains, matrioskas, if they go hardcore even via scarifying themselves.

As with everything, as they progress in their training the witches need less the Whisperian, but in order not to have to be overloaded with their negative emotions, it’s the best of the best keep them. And it gives them a scary long combat endurance.

Sheen Trinket

Previously called Gloomix, kinda disenchantix too if you cover yourself with them.

This is not really a requirement to advance in the levels of witchcraft, but part of a project that many like to do. They usually do lots but really, lots of this because they have usage limits and they break. Or collections of easy-to-carry and brought objects such as runes, cards, toothpicks or bones. They are power amplifiers, usually something that you can carry on and at least one be in contact with your skin for a hurry. They shimmer, then sheen, then shine and then they crack and dust. So, 3 uses and pick another one.

Beginners use it when they are unable to control their power (negative ourbursts) for longs periods and prefer to resort to rapid bursts previously stored in therapy sesions, they are less required as the witch or wizard gains experience.

But that does not mean that it cannot continue to be used.

Convergence

Well, this is not an item but I would like to mention that for witches, a convergence is to leave yourself much more vulnerable to your companions, more reasons for small groups. So is a MUST If you want get move on to the year. Because you HAVE to trust someone and share, you can't go through life alone with great powers that feed off the worst of your head and of others one.

Grief Edge/Blade

The equivalent - but not to Enchantix of the witches, or at least what they ask for to graduate from Cloud Tower. This is not “love other enough to sacrifice or be  selfless fairy “sh*et), but kinda sacrifice. Also, is not a blade, but a weapon atune to you and that magically responds to you as an extension of your body. (And usually transformable or retractile kinda dagger-spear, sword-naginata, bow-staff, 2bladed staff-2swords or triple staff with retractil blades everywhere etc.).

Forging this weapon requires consistency and control, a strict schedule as well. At least you always have to dedicate the same 33 min of your day to it for 3 lunar months. Many people also believe in doing it starting or ending at 3:33, so some schools may have adapted schedules to this. Always the same amount of magic. Always trying that your emotions do not differ too much from one day to the next (for that many use their Whisperian prior to the forge-infusion). At the beginning you have to work hard and almost faint, because otherwise, in the end you will not be able infuse magic otherwise, like exercising, when you get used to it at the end it is more difficult to slow down. Here is good if your coven supports you.

Once these three months pass, you have your magical energy in the form of a weapon. But it is still not solid. Now. Commit yourself (but remember use your head). And if your brothers and sisters join or at least watch over you the better. And yes, I mean blood. Not so much to kill you, but significant, which is why it is also an option the coven joined you, less blood individually - although they could take your weapon, albeit not use it, remember use your head.

Many witches also pick up weapons courses at Fonterossa when they begin to visualize/catch what the final form of their Grief will be. It becomes the best kind of the Sheen Trinket, and also a sighly stabilizer of mood, a touchstone to always keep you firm. But if you don't know how to use it and do not want to learn, you don't have to, it blends with you and is a permanent boost once finalized it creation as your body is the sheath of the weapon.

It's called Grief because, well, you are assumed suffer just thinking about what is going to happen to you (if you WANT to die and you've been feeding that idea to your weapon for months ... be careful what you wish for). Anyway, also, in the past, there are those who did it by killing their bonded pixies (even when having a bonded pixie is already a statistical anomaly!!) or a loved one and using all their blood... IN THE PAST. This form to do it is just as powerful, and less wicked. And most are prouder of doing it all on their own. Only the weaks take the easy quick way.

This weapon accompanies you all your life, through each new phase, it can change slightly with you or not, but its essence will always be the same. Unless you have a traumatic event, of course.

Icy grief is a Halbert, Darcy Grief is Rope Dart and Stormy Grief is a Morningstar Mace. Griffin one is a Sword. Marion one is also Sword and even if she is not the Witch she used to be, she can still summon it.

Wayfarer Tunics

Or wayfarix but the witchs prefer don’t call it that? Witch Harmonix equivalent [But also Kinda Dark Witch form]

Same way to get it as a fairy - ask someone blessed by an Ethereal, an Ethereal gifts you or let natural magic flood your magic core-

Gives a general boost in all your skills and allows you to withstand more extreme conditions and perform in environments that you could not before for short periods of time.

A short tunic or robe, desaturated colors if your main is naturally bright, may or may not have pants underneath, allows easy movement, Actually the truly magical part would be laces or cords or metallic or coral or “wooden” “applications”, basically a something/relatively simple detail where the 9 Milieu Talismans can be attached, it can be several or a very large one such as a necklace or belt.

Milieu Talismans (Life Realm)

To get them you have to go through a difficult mission -for each one-

Corresponding to the fairy forms: Talisman of the Poles, Talisman of the Forests, Talisman of the Deserts, Talisman of the Underworld, Talisman of the Mountains, Talisman of the Heavens, Talisman of the Oceans [aka Dark Sirenix], Talisman of Freshwaters, Talisman of the Cosmos.

Each talisman set takes on a slightly different patron according to each person. As examples is possible that they are all stones of the same color differentiated by a rune or shape, or just different gems, or different materials (a flower, a snowflake, a small flame), tufts of hair from an animal from each biome. Any combination you can think.

The good news is that unlike the fairy forms, you don't have to switch between them.

Fylgja Hide - kinda canceled but no but???

aka Shape-Shifting Witch

So, here it would work like with the faunix (aka butterflix) of fairies. But witches are not often left vulnerable because they are proud and they appreciate the Coven very much so in danger stick together.... But yeah, a show of teamwork and total confidence, in this case the witch adds the animal to her Coven implicitly. And for this, even if they don't say so, they will want and get the approval of their Coven (if they have it).

So, I really don't think the Trix would get -or even need this form- and just bonding and mixing with an -I just met even though you have pledged loyalty to me- (idk Tritannus anyone?... sorry, Icy dear it's true. -Wow Darcy, even I know you got out of hand there) animal doesn't sound like something they would do -again-. Or on the contrary, it would be something that they would have from the beginning.

It is a mixture of the animal that allows them to fully accept natural magic and therefore better tolerate wild magic that does not stop being natural magic gone crazy. This is, yes, a true transformation.

Wild Remnants - NEW (witch exclusive)

The Trix ended up in a crossroads of ley lines that went wild in middle of their deep deep group meditation before facing the world again and instead of becoming monsters, they overcome it and came out boosted in a kinda but no, a parallel but not Wayfarer Tunics. It is believed that some objects that they carried could have an influence, creating some type of ritual until now unknown.

The first to discover it were the Trix, because people don't risk that much. This is the form they keep from Season 6/7 and later.

Theoretically possible for fairies. Only accessible in group -more prople = better- for both magic users. The convergence group meditation has to be long in time and deep in the union of its members.

Mythix

Via Seven Ancestral Rods/Keys. Hell, this even can be used by a NON MAGIC USER, A BLUE LEVEL ONE. Although what they will contribute to the key would be a sample of their natural skills.

Literaly cut&paste from the winx one: You must prove themselves before any of the Seven Ancestral Rods. All at first identical in form and color, except when used. They contain the fragments of conscience and magic of their former users. And they demand fragments of yours to be used, so that each next user who comes is more worthy of their power and gets even stronger. Commit.

So it's like wear someone else's clothes with little, very little influences from you. It includes armor -because I want- Because the Ancient Ones were prepared to die. Another transformation but again item dependant.

(Death and Dreams Realms) - same in both witch and fae ones but they call it different

Banshee Stuff (Morix) - The transformation blessed by the Phoenix. As the fairy one, you get it if the Shadow Phoenix gets up on that side of the bed. It's the same but without wings. If you have half died several times you win tickets to get it unconsciously by accumulating energy from the Plane of Death in your Whisperian, what creates a second one, like a ghost/shadow Whisperian bottle.  A very misunderstood transformation, it allows you to communicate with the world of the dead, rest agitated spirits and the people they left here, not just summon zombies -which look like shadows. And you are sooo much harder to kill. It also increases your healing abilities, humans and nature related. [Not all Good is purely Good. And not all Evil is purely Evil.] Ripped, gnawed clothes.

Mare/Mara Material (Somnix)- You must have Wayfarer tunics. Then you have to immerse yourself in a magical induced dream, come out of your own dream and find the Door to the Ethereal Palace and get an ok. On the Plane of Dreams which watch out, it’s a realm of dreams and nightmares. And witches naturally attract the latter. It’s the Onyrix one. Second transformation.

Laempad Robes

Or Laempadix but same with wayfarix. Witch Nymphix equivalent

It is currently the Wayfare one with all the amulets already acquired and (if you want keep the aesthetic) a longer/more cloth and a small detail in the hair to keep it away from the face. It usually ends up a bit more torn than the nymphix fairies' clothing and dark at the ends because it is not so magically wrapped at first but it gets soaked on it over time.

I think I didn’t say it in the fairies, but it is understood that there is ANOTHER test to become a nymph/lampade. Which would add up to 12 tests if you got the Harmonix/Wayfarer Tunics instead of skipping/cheat that part. 12 trials, and there have never been more than 12 live nymphs and lampades in total, nobody knows why. But usually 9 is the most common number.

This test was conducted at Hike and some historians believe was part of the reason for the InterRealm war. Now it takes place in Magix (or somewhere on the asteroid belt, that's for sure, but not even the nymphs/lampades themselves can say where or what does it consist of), that's why they are sometimes called "the Nymphs of Magix”.

I might had in mind a bit of the Gothic Sirenix Aesthetic (I love IT) when I stormbraining this. Also, Yua from W.I.T.C.H. Comics.

Enkix (Magic Realm)

Believed it was only obtained by those who have obtained in Nymphix... until the Winx obtained it. Be loved... by a Ethereal. In theory love is more what powers Fairy transformations, but getting the attention of an Ethereal is a double-edged sword.
