We have done druids, warlocks so let's now have a look on how D&D 5e Sorcerers can be witches.
Up first might have the longest title yet.
The Witch - A Sorcerous Origin and Character Background Option for 5th Edition Dungeons & DragonsThis PDF is seven pages and is PWYW with a suggested payment of $1.17. Ok, a bit random, especially since the $1.14 makes a little more historical sense.
The author knows his sorcerers, so that is reflected here. The pdf has background information for your witch characters as well as some other useful tables. The Sorcerous origin reads like a "Natural" or "Born" witch archetype so often used. It works well here too.
No new spells, but none were expected to be honest.
This one packs quite a bit into six or so pages of content.
Call of the Wild - The Witch Class and Archetypes for Harnessing Primal Power (5e)
This one a bit larger at 35 pages. It is also PWYW with a suggestion of $2.99. This falls under my $0.10 per page rule of thumb so we are still good. This book offers a lot of varied content.
There are different sorts of animal-folk (beast folk, bear folk, cat folk), a full witch class (not a sorcerer build as I was expecting) complete with hexes and curses. There are also three Witchcraft "Practices", the Herbalist, the Pact Maker, and the Soulsplitter.
There are also new class options for all the D&D5 classes. There is a new Sorcerous Origin, the Hagborn, and three new Warlock Patrons/Matrons including Mother Nature.
Both the Sorcerer and the Warlock could double as a witch.
What might be fun for this one is choose one of the new races and make a coven of the Witch, Warlock, and Sorceror types here.
This book also doesn't have any new spells which is a bit of surprise given how much else it has.
Archetypes for D&D
This seven-page PWYW PDF covers five new archetypes for some D&D 5e classes. Of interest to me are the Witch archetype for sorcerers and the Witch Hunter archetype for any martial-type class.
The witch gets some new spells (from other classes) and four new powers. If I were to use this with other witch classes I might call it a Witch-kin or a Witch-blooded.
This one also highlights one of my strong dislikes for DMSGuild. The art on the cover for this comes from the book Four From Cormyr. I could be mistaken, but I don't think that is in any of the approved art packs I have downloaded. Some of the author's other titles also feature art that I know is not part of the approved packs.
