A witch can use this power to change reality by magical means or supernaturally effect things that can't be done naturally ("witchcraft"). Witches have the fundamental powers to cast spells, make potions, and scry for persons and objects. Additionally, most witches have a personal active power that they are born with.<br/><br/>Witches can be either male or female, and good or evil. However, witches that betray the Wiccan Rede, sell their souls to evil, and kill good witches for their powers are called Warlocks.<br/><br/>The first witch to ever walk the Earth was Neena, who went by many different names such as Isabel or Victoria. She and her mate first gained their powers when they absorbed a powerful Nexus known as The All.<br/><br/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: arial;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;">Warlocks</span></span><br/><br/><strong>See this page (http://charmed.wikia.com/wiki/Warlock) for more information.</strong></div><br/>Warlocks are an evil race of magical beings that hunt, capture and kill witches for power. They are known to be ex-witches who have evolved into beings of pure Darkness through dedication to Evil in a manner comparable to how Good witches and Whitelighters are dedicated to Good. The term is not gender-specific and refers to witches who have gone down the path of evil, rescinding their humanity after committing an irrevocable act of evil – to kill a witch and steal his or her magic and powers.<br/><br/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: arial;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;">Evil Witches</span></span></div><br/>An evil witch, sometimes confused with a warlock, is a witch who renounces The Wiccan Rede, and uses his/her powers for personal gain and evil, sinister means, though they do not kill witches for their powers (though they can cast spells to steal a witch's power) and do not sell their soul to the forces of evil.  When witches turn evil, they renounce their right to a Whitelighter.<br/><br/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: arial;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;">Sub-categories of Witches</span></span><br/><br/><strong>See this page (http://charmed.wikia.com/wiki/Witches) for more information.</strong></div><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Ghost-Witches</li><li>Whitelighter-Witches</li><li>Empath-Witches</li><li>Cupid-Witches</li><li>Demon-Witches</li><li>Phoenix</li><li>Firestarter-Witch</li><li>Gypsy</li></ul>
