Description
In the midst of the carnage which was the American Civil War, a woman named Charity Wilson held the power of the Wotch. She had kept her distance from the war and the world in general, her powers a carefully hidden secret, until one day she found her dearest friend, Union soldier Victor Durant, mortally wounded on a battlefield. Charity tried frantically to restore Victor, but the healing spells she knew had no effect; his injuries were severe and death was literally seconds away. Desperate to save him, she did the only thing she could think of: she grabbed Victor's fife and, following the ancient tradition, imbued it with the power of the Wotch and pressed it into his hand, forsaking her claim to the power and passing it to her successor.

Of course only a woman can be the Wotch, so when the fallen soldier regained consciousness a few moments later, she discovered that not only was she still alive, but she had become female. In a sense, the man named Victor really had died, and a woman named Victoria had taken his place. Needless to say, a very difficult time lay ahead for both Charity and Victoria......

TALES OF THE WOTCH:
Brothers in Arms, Sisters in Magic

Backstory for these characters very graciously provided by Anne Onymous herself. Too cool.
