Of these pop culture icons, which witch (see what I did there?) is your favorite?
Was checking out that topic about Gandalf on this forum, and realized I wasn't really a fan of his compared to other wizards. Then I got to thinking which wizard (outside of Baldur's Gate of course) was really my favorite. Would like to get a feel for everyone's favorites and maybe discuss why. A lot of choices, so I ended up making two polls, one for witches and one for wizards.
similar poll for greatest wizard: http://forum.baldursgate.com/discussion/35198/which-of-these-wizards-is-the-coolest#latest
edit: DERP DERP DERP Second Morgan le Fay is actually Melisandre from Game of Thrones

Curses! How do I know which one is the imposter!?
Damn these doppelgangers!!!!!!!!
The second Morgan le Fay was supposed to be Melisandre from Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire
Most wicked witch in romans? The Bene Gesserit.
Most wicked witch in TV shows? Beatrice.
Most wicked witch in video games? Metallia.
You two were made for eachother!
She is also known as Baba Yaga Boney Legs, because, in spite of a ferocious appetite, she is as thin as a skeleton.
Not being a boringly-conventional witch, she does not wear a hat, and has never been seen on a broomstick. She travels perched in a large mortar with her knees almost touching her chin, and pushes herself across the forest floor with a pestle.
Whenever she appears on the scene, a wild wind begins to blow, the trees around creak and groan and leaves whirl through the air. Shrieking and wailing, a host of spirits often accompany her on her way.
Being a somewhat secretive lady, she sweeps away all traces of herself with a broom made of silver birch.
She can also fly through the air in the same manner.
Baba Yaga lives in a hut deep in the forest. Her hut seems to have a personality of its own and can move about on its extra-large chicken legs. Usually the hut is either spinning around as it moves through the forest or stands at rest with its back to the visitor. The windows of the hut seem to serve as eyes.
All the while it is spinning round, it emits blood-curdling screeches and will only come to a halt, amid much creaking and groaning, when a secret incantation is said. When it stops, it turns to face the visitor and lowers itself down on its chicken legs, throwing open the door with a loud crash.
The hut is sometimes surrounded by a fence made of bones, which helps to keep out intruders! The fence is topped with skulls whose blazing eye sockets illuminate the darkness.
Baba Yaga rules over the elements. Her faithful servants are the White Horseman, the Red Horseman and the Black Horseman.
When Vasilissa asks her who these mysterious horsemen are, she replies: 'My Bright Dawn, my Red Sun and my Dark Midnight.'
Amongst her other servants, are three bodiless and somewhat menacing pairs of hands, which appear out of thin air to do her bidding. She calls them "my soul friends" or "friends of my bosom".
Also maybe no one think of them as witches/ goddesses but they are, the 3 Moirai also known as the 3 sisters of Fates:
Clotho (spinner) also known as Nona, Lachesis (allotter) also knows as Decima and Atropos (unturnable) also known as Morta (which mean death).
They controlled the metaphorical thread of life of every mortal from birth to death. They were independent, at the helm of necessity, directed fate, and watched that the fate assigned to every being by eternal laws might take its course without obstruction.
There is also Circe the witch that turn everyone to pigs :P
And their more and more witches all around.
See, so evil that she cursed your poll. One does not trifle with she who will not be named.
Whoever not read The Belgariad and The Malloreon series should read it and ofc the Belgrath and not forget Polgara
Like @kaguana , I'm also a huge Belgarath and Polgara fan, of course.
LOL, now I'm wanting to start a BG run with Samantha as Charname.
RIP Elizabeth Montgomery.
How can she be left out?
I'll show myself out.
