A warlock is a male practitioner of evil magic (distinguished from a wizard or sorcerer, whose magic may be benign).[1] The most commonly accepted etymology derives warlock from the Old English wǣrloga meaning "oathbreaker" or "deceiver".[2] However, in early modern Scots, the word came to be used as the male equivalent of witch (which can be male or female, but is used predominantly for females).[3] From this use, the word passed into Romantic literature and ultimately 20th-century popular culture. A derivation from the Old Norse varð-lokkur, "caller of spirits", has also been suggested;[4][5][

Witches, Warlocks, Wizards, And Sorcerers are the premier paranormal practitioners of Magic! Magic is the manipulation of metaphysical energy by varying means to bend reality to one’s will.
As
metaphysical energy is a foundational programming element of our
reality it can be supernaturally shuffled under the right circumstances.
Everyone who wields the wondrous ability to practice magic has the
potential to use it for good, or evil. Although in the case of
Warlocks, they tend to follow the dark path. Interestingly enough a
fair amount of Sorcerers, and Sorceresses end up winding into wayward
ways due to the awesome power they have harnessed free of any need for
higher dimensional deities! That calling upon, or praying to higher
powers is the first trek into magic for most beyond simple Spells.
That being said Sorcerer’s are generally the most powerful followed by
Wizards. Witches and Warlocks come in third. However as with any
practitioner of magic, or any field of talent, a person can become so
experienced in a so called lesser craft that they outshine those engaged
in more advanced arts!
