So There Arent Many Shadow Charmers In Fablehaven/Dragonwatch, But There Are Quite A Few Witches.they

So there aren’t many shadow charmers in Fablehaven/Dragonwatch, but there are quite a few witches. they both supposedly get their powers from the same source, demons, so I wonder if they’re similar Considering that Shadow Charmers are inducted into the brotherhood of the creatures of the night and witches hone powers from their patron demon, they aren’t necessarily the same

but what makes a witch different from a shadow charmer exactly? why are shadow charmers rarer? Borrowing power from a demon essentially entrusts a person with dark magic and that means witches are therefore dark-aligned beings like shadow charmers they may have different abilities from shadow charmers but as we have seen with the singing sisters, who have untold knowledge/foresight, they aren’t always less powerful than shadow charmers so what’s so great about being a shadow charmer then? Here’s my theory: when witches choose to follow a demon and use their powers, they choose to give up every aspect that makes them light, and in turn, lose their sense of self and corrupting so they can take on the power that’s bestowed to them, similarly to demons When something becomes a shadow charmer, they do not lose their sense of self as they aren’t exactly demonkind, but still a creature of night. Being a shadow charmer doesn’t change the creature’s morals or character, yet still provides access to demon-like powers. The creature is dark but not necessarily corrupted (However, most of them were known to be evil until Seth came along) The reason it’s easier to become a witch than a shadow charmer is probably because the process of becoming dark-aligned without corrupting the creature in question is hard for demons to preform This might be because demons often are made when a creature corrupts, so it’d be hard to tap into a demons powers without corrupting. But if shadow charmers are granted powers that aren’t from the demon directly, but more of a general dark-aligned creature, then they won’t corrupt.

that being said, demons are probably one of the most powerful dark creatures in the Fablehaven universe and could grant shadow charming most easily out of the other dark creatures. Since there are so few left in the overworld due to the demon prison, it’d be hard to see one out and win its favor in the first place anyway, I forgot where I was going with this.

I can not believe that Jason Grace has wormed his way into becoming ✨The Boy✨ when 90% of what I remember him doing canonically was get concussed and be confused

Cue me, thinking that I can edit my webtoon creator profile when I switch to the mobile website version

And when I do it, there’s now these buttons to edit my profile and make posts (woohoo! It worked!) which should in theory work because why else would you have buttons if not to use them for the intended purpose of their creation and then this notification pops up when I click either button :[

So now I’m like ‘why even have buttons if they don’t do anything?’

yo wolfy idk if anyone has asked this yet but where’d you get the idea for your username?

Wolfythewitch? Oh haha my first nickname from my first internet friend was Wolfy. When I was on hamino in the Hamilton fandom we came across a little list of various witchcraft/magic practices and I liked illusions so my username on there was wolfytheillusionist. At some point I wanted an alliteration so it became wolfythewitch
