Great Witch Shelby - Blog Posts

Do yuo think Shelby sends Katherine letters via Nimbus during the supreme witch trials. Do you think the gardens looking a little bit sad now because Katherine’s not used to having to water it. Do you think Shelby refuses to take her ring off (theyre married source just trust me bro) even though it would be more efficient and make room for more enchanted rings. Do you think Katherine goes through her day working on requests and embroidery projects just waiting for the little black crow to show up with some more batshit insane letters. “Hey Katherine <3 The trials are going really well, I’ve learnt a lot since getting here! I grew wings btw. Also I have a sister now!!! She’s kinda cringefail but I think you’d like her :) I’ll see you soon, just gotta fight a death battle and I’ll be back home!! Miss you XOXO <3!”. Hello can anyone hear me

I challenge! I've been thinking about this for quite some time, (you just gave me reason to write it all.) While I generally like what you put, I believe wholeheartedly that she would be a sorcerer. (Perhaps even unaware of her internal magic.) Because:

You decide to become a wizard in DND; while Shelby was born, and destined, for magic. That is clearly not the case for the other witches: while WC Joey was born with magic, WC Scott, Lauren, and Prismarina all definitely weren't. (I'm unclear about the others. But the term of "witch" seems to be incredibly loose.) So, Shelby was born with magic, yet still went to a school for witches, and that is all fine and good. HOWEVER, she was a horrible student, making mistakes and etcetera. She is clearly dedicated to the craft, yet she keeps failing. What if she wasn't being taught for her class of magic? And later on, she was able to open a multi-dimensional rift *on accident*. That is someone with substantial raw power. Warlock is out of the question, except when she was possessed by sculk. It gave her power, which is the whole identity of a warlock. But she already had power, she just seemed to have gotten better control over it, seemingly increasing what she already had. ANYWAYS, she also had a vision at one point, if I remember correctly, of the gnomes when she discovered the heart of the Evermoore and the portal there: more of a sorcerer trait. "The fog claims souls and those who go in there are don't come back out", well maybe the fog kept her alive because it sensed her magic. Maybe the sculk couldn't claim her as fast as it claimed Cub because of her internal magic trying to fight it. Or maybe that's why she still had some control and was able to feel the pain of the voices instead of being completely numb like promised. There are probably other things I'm missing... Oh well.

So, based on the information I gathered and remember, I'd say that Great Witch Shelby is a sorcerer, behaving as if she is a wizard.

Making Empires Cast into DND5e Characters

Great Witch Shelby of the Evermore

At Level Three

Race: Human

Language: Gnomish (for nostalgia)

Class: School of Transmutation

Skills: Investigation, Medicine

Background: Guild Artisan

Language: Sylvan

I figured the witches were more of a guild and it fits more with her character instead of something like sage

Thoughts? Questions? Comments? Concerns?

Who should I do next?

wait i just realised that since wc!shelby is e!shelby, that means she would have like. the weirdest perspective on everyone else because she’s experienced pretty much the same things as half the other contestants

Getting possessed by a malevolent entity that makes her yell at her crush? check Effectively cast out of her home due to something with her magic? slightly different circumstances but check Dealing with a weird corruption thing that grows as she gets stronger? check Having a ton of voices in her head at once? definitely not to the same extent as cleo but check

I just think it’s neat

(Now excuse me while i go try and figure out what the fuck to do with the shubble double au now)

The Great Storm Witch Shelby

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! I WAS RIGHT ALL ALONG. YESSSS!

I posted this in the Prismarina theory-discussion channel on Discord (March 23, 2023):

"" I had the same thought! I'm glad someone had the same idea!

So many lines that WitchCraft Shelby has just said in Episode 5 lines up:

1. "I wonder what SHE will think of me..." Scott has said mentioned a "he" who everyone believes is Jimmy. So it would make sense if Shelby was referring to Katherine.

2. "I've changed so much." Storm Witch Shelby has different hair, different outfit, different magic, & etc.

3. "I can't believe how strong I've gotten. This is everything I've ever wanted." We know that Esmp Shelby doesn't think very highly of herself, and that she wants to be stronger and help people.

4. "I have something to prove." Esmp Shelby has said how she has to prove herself worthy to the Academy so that they don't take her magic.

5. "I did awful in school." We know that Esmp Shelby got bad grades at school.

And finally, why wouldn't she question the existence of another Scott and another Joey? **Because of the rift.** There were 2 FalseSymmetrys on Empires at one time. They looked and acted differently from each other. If there were 2 Falses, why couldn't there be 2 versions of Scott and 2 versions of Joey. ""

That was what I wrote.

Shubble's Esmp S2 finale just came out 2 hours ago. And, after getting killed/cleansed of sculk by Sausage, she got brought back with lightning. She has white hair and the expertise she chose is storms! She even went to Joel for advice! And made up with Katherine.

AHHHHHHH!

I'm just so psyched about this, that all this lore gets perfectly put together.

I don't know what to do with myself now. This has kinda cleared all of my brain-rots since they were all about her.

Just. AHHHHHHHH!!!
