[[File:TS1_witch.png|thumb|A Sim turned to a witch by the charm]]
In ''[[The Sims: Makin' Magic|Makin' Magic]]'', there are no special terms such as "witch", "warlock", or "wizard" for magical Sims, and being magical is not considered a life state. A magical Sim is simply one who has a wand in his or her [[inventory]].
To use magic in ''Makin' Magic'', an [[adult]] Sim can open the box left by the [[Mystery Man]] and get the magic wand. The box also contains some basic ingredients and a few [[MagiCoins]]. When the box is opened, [[A Hole in the Ground]], a spellbook, and a wand charger will appear (these items can also be bought in [[buy mode]]). The wand charger also dispenses wands; an adult Sim who didn't get one from the Mystery Man's box can get one from a wand charger. A [[child]] can get a child's wand from the '''MagiCo NeoMagical Newt''', which must be bought in buy mode. A Sim can give up their magic by going to [[Magic Town]] and selling their wand to the Mystery Man.

While witches and warlocks receive distinctive clothing, they can change into normal clothing and headgear, which has no effect on their magical powers. Every time a witch or warlock passes an alignment threshold, he or she will automatically be dressed in a new robe and hat.
Players can use the [[Testing cheats|testing cheat]] to make the process easier by summoning a High Witch<!---Are good/bad female witches always spawned this way?--> via [[

{{main|Spells (The Sims 2: Apartment Life)}}
Each spell requires a certain level in magic or a specific number of reagents to be available, these can be obtained by purchasing them from [[Non-playable character|NPC]] witches, or crafted in a cauldron. Unlike in ''[[The Sims: Makin' Magic]]'', Sims aren't required to prepare spells before casting, and instead just require the right combination of reagents on the spot. Witches with higher magic skill have a higher success rate when casting spells and have access to more powerful spells.
Spells are organized into three categories: Good, Neutral, and Evil. Sims can study good, neutral, or evil magic in their spellbook. This increases their magic skill, and changes their alignment toward the direction they are studying. To be able to use the strongest spells and craft the most useful items of each alignment, a witch must be at the maximum level of their alignment. For example, an ''Infallibly Good'' witch can cast ''Expello Mortis'' and also craft the ''

Line 46:
Potions, reagents, and exclusive new objects can all be crafted in the cauldron, but some reagents can be bought at the [[Secret Lots|secret magic lot]] of the witch's alignment. With the exception of reagents, each requires a certain level of magic and/or alignment to be available for crafting.
Reagents, potions, and crafted objects can be put up for sale in a player-owned business if ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business|Open
===Alignments===
Line 56:
Using a "'''Neutral'''" spell will move a witch closer to the neutral alignment. They will thus make a good caster less good and an evil caster less evil. Neutral witches and warlocks have spellbooks on plain wooden stands, and their cauldrons emit white smoke. Neutral witches, when wearing normal clothes and a normal hairstyle, will appear as almost completely normal Sims. The only known visible difference between neutral witches and normal Sims is that neutral witches have a tiny transparent yellow sparkle behind their right ear, which can't be seen easily. Hovering the cursor over the Sim to see his/her name will give the extended name that identifies him/her as a witch.
Once enough "'''Evil'''" spells are cast, a witch will become ''Evil'' or ''Atrociously Evil''. They will wear black robes, craft gothic-looking items, and have a cauldron which emits red smoke. Atrociously Evil witches have green skin and a sickly green aura, similar to the [
While making craftables, evil witches will periodically stick their fingers into their cauldrons and taste their brew, then let out an evil cackle before resuming.

A ''High Witch'' is an
They can only be of ''Good'' or ''Evil'' alignment and are usually female. As suggested by their title, they are at the highest maximum alignment level. They also all have a maximised spell-casting ability at level ten, making them very powerful. Upon arriving to any lot, they will occasionally cast either the Beautificus/Corruptus Locus spell and summon a spectral cat based on their alignment when idling.
