'''Mavika''' is a [Witch] and one of the senior members of the [[Marshlands Coven]].

==Appearance==
She has a thin, angular face, dark skin<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/08/13/6-37-e/ Chapter 6.37 E]</ref> and yellow teeth. Her long frame and thin arms look somehow wrong. She wears grey rags and a dark grey pointed hat, bespectacled with feathers.<ref name=":6.36 E">[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/08/10/6-36-e/ Chapter 6.36 E]</ref>

==Personality==

==Background==

==Chronology==
Not happy that [[Wiskeria]] is not agreeing to join her for their coven meeting, she has been sending a raven as a messenger to get her to come. She would later send a flock of crows to again get her, or rather to threaten her, by having the flock swarm her. After [[Durene]] intervened to help Wiskeria, and Frostwing killed 2 crows, the flock would flee. Later Mavika would try one last attempt to get her, by animating a crow’s head, but Durene smash it.<ref name=":6.34 E">[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/07/27/6-34-e/ Chapter 6.34 E]</ref>

She would later go in person to [[Riverfarm]], and unbeknown to everyone, witness [[Rehanna]] unjustly harassing Wiskeria, which prompt her to cast a painful spell on Rehanna for her rudeness. She then would reveal herself to everyone present, and after admit to them that she was the caster, she tells them that anyone scorning a [Witch]’s gift will pay the price in equal measure, like discourtesy with discourtesy. Then after Wiskeria calls her name, she would bow slightly and proclaim that she was the first one to arrive.<ref name=":6.36 E" />

==Powers and Abilities==
She is a strong powerful [Witch]. Her craft comes form superstition :  "she was the literal [Witch] in people’s imaginations. And because they thought that and she confirmed it, she could do what they believed."<ref>{{VERef|9.18 E}}</ref>While she is not like a [Beast Tamer], she can make her ravens and crows talk, carry messages, listen trough them, and do other things. She is able to spy on events across Izril through her raven's eyes, for example, she was able to recount the vampire hunters' attack on vampires hiding in House Tellis' territory, far to the north of Riverfarm<ref>{{VERef|10.19 E}}</ref>. She also knows a bit of necromancy too, as she is able to still use her crows when they’re dead.<ref name=":6.34 E" /> While she primarily uses crows, she also has control over other animals such as rats and snakes.<ref name="6.40 E" />

She is knowledgeable about poisons, diseases<ref>{{VERef|6.47 E}}</ref> and curses<ref>{{VERef|8.33 R}}</ref>. Her familiar is named Sephraic, he usually looks like a crow but can transform into a much bigger creature, like a giant raven<ref name="6.40 E" />. 

Mavika can fuse with her familiar to turn into a huge primordial avian<ref>{{VERef|7.59}}</ref> in order to fight and fly. She can burst into a shower of crows to quickly run away<ref name=":0">{{VERef|10.36 - Pt. 1}}</ref> and can ride a broom better than [[Alevica]]<ref>{{VERef|7.60}}</ref>. Her transformations are not limited to that however, she was able to partially transform her head to have owl-like features in order to avoid having her neck broken  by a [[Hag Queens of Aklat Vunn|Hag Queen]]'s magic.<ref>{{VERef|9.67 (Pt. 1)}}</ref>

Mavika uses an ancient magic of wings<ref name=":0" />, her affinity is really good with the wind, air and sky, thanks to her specialization, but in return she is less in touch with other elements such as not being able to hear a Water Elemental<ref name=":1">{{VERef|9.11 W}}</ref>. Her affinity with the sky allows her to hear whispers in the wind <ref name=":1" /> and sense Ryoka's own affinity with the wind, calling her "wind's child"<ref name="6.40 E" />.
