There is such a thing as a coven of wizards, but it's typically referred to as an argument.

Most of said arguments being started by Usidore the Blue.
Just because he asked how the weather was… doesn’t mean he started it!
Well if that conspiracy of wind, fire, earth, and birds didn't want an argument, they wouldn't have brought him fully formed into being...
Oh and here's aeronmelon out of the blue starting arguments to make me look bad!

Thought it was a council
And what do those councils do whenever they get together?
I just love english and their crazy namings. I mean I know it's not correct but it could be. It really could be.
Omg pls let this be real.
That topic was extensively covered by Terry Pratchett including the possible erotic implications.
Can I get a (few) title(s), please?
I've read (only) half of the disc-world books, but I don't know what you're referencing.
Definitely Lords and Ladies, see the reference to a romance a few lines down in https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unseen_University#Archchancellor.
There's also a lot of references to sex and romance in nearly all books revolving around Granny Weather and Nanny Ogg and the younger witches they educate. See for books and references in https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granny_Weatherwax.
I always suggest to read the whole disc world series in the order of their publication - first of all they're all very entertaining books, and the order of publication develops the whole scenario as Terry Pratchett intended.
Have fun :)
Thanks for the extensive response :)
Probably Lords and Ladies
Thanks for the fast response :)
That was unexpectedly wholesome!
Lemmy needs a c/gatesopencomeonin
Make it happen!
Wizards witches warlocks sorcerers
Who can keep track?
Trains
I like trains
Dad, what are you doing on Lemmy
Wizard is a magic science user
Witch is a magic chemistry user
Warlock is a magic outsourcer
Sorcerer is just built different
- Alchemists are magic chemists.
- Witches seem closer to magic geeks. They follow a long, complicated and self-contradictory canon of lore, and when that fails, they just sort of fill it with their headcanon. Sometimes, that doesn't work, and sometimes, they end up finding a better ending to their ritual than the original. It's a much more creative and innovative endeavor than wizardry.
- Sorcerers, at least in the d&d tradition, are magic nepo babies.
How about Oneiromancers such as Freud?
Magic talkers. Artificers are magic tinkerers, mages are magic soldiers, hags are magic gardeners, the list goes on I'm sure.
Druids, mages, sages, shamans, that one weird aunt.
How could I forget the earth magic people!
Let’s not forget pyromancers, necromancers, and floramancers to name a few more magic users
How do you guys always forget the clerics. You have no problem taking our buffs, but God forbid mentioning us in a list...
(also paladins)
And what about the rights of the muggles that do streetmagic, illusionists, magicians and slight-of-hand masters? They can sort of bring some magic to the table.
Are you Harry Dresden?
But it all comes down to the fae, the fairies, the fair folk
Sir this is a Wendy’s
Alright we're like 1/4th of the way to a song here...
Working title: the magic of friendship.
Me. I can keep track.
Found the DM!
This is so weirdly cute!!
I have really appreciated my coven, honestly. I'm their poop wizard.
The fiber that binds them?
Me and one half back cat are looking for a coven!
Only magic the cat can do is eat, sleep, and roll around on the floor being cute.
You and the cat can join my coven. I hope you can do magic tho cause my skills align more closely with the cat...
