We have had many people coming into the guild and claiming that warlock is just the term for the male witch. Others disagree and claim that warlock means "oath breaker". What are you thoughts and what do you believe the word "warlock" means?

The answer depends on the root language you are looking at.

I don't call myself a warlock. I think that term is mostly used by muggles, whether in a derogatory fashion or not.

In my culture "warlock" refers to a group and/or family of people with special heritage qualities. Neither refering to Oath Breaker nor Male Witch (because a female can be a warlock as well)
sweatdrop Ya I found it, lol

Shifty_Switchblade So what do you call a male witch? A witch. Or a Magician if you're studying ceremonial magic. Or you can call yourself whatever the hell you want. It's not like the name really matters anyway. It's what you do that counts. I know it's cliche but, "A rose by any other name would still smell as sweet." A name is just a name. It shouldn't have much effect on how you practise. It's only there for aesthetics.

I think it's pretty funny, my opinion to call someone wizard or warlock, when it mains a traitor, because that's what they used to call the people who sold the healers or "witches" or in the Salem Witch Trials. I mean it's like the rose analogy, it's just when anyone says it, it makes me laugh. Call yourself what ever you want. Stray from Satanist though, gives a bad mage. Haha. Have a blessed day.

Male Witches are just that: Witches. "Witch" is not specifically a term for females.

Harry Potter term. The Witches and "wizards" call the "non-magickal folk" Muggles. Heh.
