Gert (Ariela Barer) is a bookish feminist with a pet dinosaur; Molly (Allegra Acosta) is a naive but feisty fighter; Nico (Lyrica Okano) is a burgeoning sorceress; Karolina (Virginia Gardner) is a lesbian flying alien, while dumb jock Chase (Gregg Sulkin) and supersmart nerd Alex (Rhenzy Feliz) rely on inventions from their parents.

The first known canvas illustrating a scene from "Orlando Furioso" (dating from about 1518 and on loan from Villa Borghese in Rome) is Dosso Dossi's "Melissa," the good enchantress who restores to their proper form sundry knights who have been metamorphosed into animals, birds, trees and stone by the wicked sorceress Alcina.

In a pre-recorded video, dad warns Lara about an organization called Trinity, hot on his tail in the race to find the final resting place of the killer sorceress Queen Himiko, whose apocalyptic force was contained by her enemies in a secure tomb hidden on Yamatai, an uncharted island off the coast of Japan.

The first season of Riverdale spinoff The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina almost came through with the magical delights a show about a teen sorceress should have, but it focused too much on the mundane realities of Sabrina Spellman's mortal life; it was heavy on the high school drama and light on the satanic rituals.

Based on books by the Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski (which have also inspired a popular video game series), the show follows Geralt during business hours (he's essentially an exterminator of mythical brutes) and outside of them, as his story intersects with the lives of a sorceress (played Anya Chalotra) and a young princess (Freya Allan).

It also takes away from some of the better narratives the show plays with, like Adora's concern that her friends only like her for her powers or the long-running plot of the toxic power exerted over She-Ra and Catra by the evil sorceress Shadow Weaver (Lorraine Toussaint), who served as their commanding officer and abusive foster mother.

The women at the center of her writing are touched by loss and hope, existing in a slightly skewed reality — a deceased mother revisits her family, a generation of children survive a devastating global flood and find they have clairvoyant powers, would-be mothers rely on a sorceress to transform their hand-made creations into a living being.

He explains that August's journey is to figure out whether she wants to stay in the present with Ed (played by Jordan) where the movie starts out, or pursue a life in the past with Noah (played by Rainer), which is where August ends up at the hands of the Time Sorceress (played by Tangey/Xu).

In both Sapkowski's novels and the many video games they spawned, Yennefer suffers horrible treatment from nearly everyone she crosses paths with because of her appearance, and to make matters worse, she's only able to unlock her true power as a sorceress after becoming beautiful by "fixing" her physical appearance — what kind of message does that send?

In some paintings, like "In the Tower" (21990), the feminine figure is a modern-day sorceress while in others, like "Portrait of a Woman Seated on a Naked Man" (19903) she is a voyeuristic guardian in what looks like the afterglow of sex romp, as distinctions between reality and fantasy dissolve in the heat of Fini's hedonistic canvases.

Shot mostly in black and white, and hacked with stylish edits that make each character look like a strained marionette, the movie opens with an Ian McShane voiceover telling us the story of Nimue the immortal Blood Queen (Milla Jovovich), a powerful sorceress who wants to unleash a plague that will ravage the world, leaving behind nothing behind but bone and dust.

We soon met three women, dressed like laborers, who were, in fact, the three Fates, spinning the thread of life and deliberating Dido's future: the sweet soprano Anna Christy, who later sang Belinda, Dido's sister and handmaiden; the rich mezzo-soprano Sarah Mesko; and the amazing Ms. Clark, as the Fate who makes the final calls on people's mortality, and who later stole every scene she was in as Purcell's Sorceress.

Led by Allister Thorne (whom we all know would've become Lord Commander of the Night's Watch if Jon Snow weren't so obviously cooler), it's likely that they want to seize and burn Jon Snow's body in order to prevent him either (a) rising as a White Walker (a common occurrence at the top edge of the world), or (b) being resurrected through the power of king's blood by offscreen-but-on-deck sorceress Melisandre.
