List of species

This is a list of species in The Legend of Dark Witch series. Species are generally categorized on whether they need Syega to use magic, which is what this list will do.

Humans
Humans are the largest group in Beatus. They are based off of the species of humans in real life. They do not possess the ability to use magic by themselves. Instead, they require the use of Syega for magic. Human bodies cannot use an excessive amount of Syega without harming themselves, as evidenced by Franzer. A few prominent humans in the series include Sola, Klinsy, and Al.

Beastmen
Beastmen are very similar to humans in Beatus. However, they typically have features of other animals as a part of them, such as cat ears. They seem to be based on characters in anime and other media that have features of animals as well. The beastmen in the series are typically shown using weapons embedded with Syega, so it is safe to assume that Beastmen need Syega to use magic. Beastmen are a target of discrimination in the Old Islands, as they are relegated to areas in poor condition. Riva even associates them with low intelligence. The only two known beastmen in the series are Papelne and Rudy, and although Patty has typical features of Beastmen, she is considered fae. Interestingly, The Legend of Dark Witch 3 often refers to fae as beastmen.

Fae
The fae are a species which do not require Syega to use magic, as they are able to use magic naturally. Some fae look indistinguishable from humans, while others have many features humans do not. Not every fae can communicate with humans. The boss of the lowest floor of Medina, Parasicolder, is an example of this, as well as Stoj mentioning that a fussy old lady taught her to talk in The Legend of Dark Witch 2. Like beast men, the fae are also a subject of discrimination and prejudice. Before the events of the the third game, The Magic Lions Corps were a group banded together to take out all the Fae in the world. However, Simeone, the leader of a group of Fae, tricked Day into betraying the Magic Lion Corps, causing them to go their seperate ways. A few notable fae in the series include Stoj, Bajel, and Simeone.

Gods
Gods are very powerful beings, watching over Beatus to make sure that the other species don't cause trouble. As gods, they do not need to use Syega, and are even more powerful than fae. The main protagonist of the series, Zizou Olympia, is a god; the only god in the series being her sister, Mati. She has a rare power called "imperative", which renders Day's magic item, Capacity Zero, useless. According to the dialogue between Sola and Zizou in The Legend of Dark Witch 2, gods are portrayed as more majestic.

Other Species
There are two other species that have appeared in the Legend of Dark Witch series. Not a lot is known about them as there is only one of each so far in the series, so they are categorized separately.

Robots
There is only one robot in the series, this being Herbert. Herbert is a mechanical humanoid appearing as an Ich researcher in the second installment. Being a robot, she has access to mechanical powers, such as being able to summon bombs, as well as a shield called Overhelm. However, from her design, it seems that robots still require Syega to use magic.

Half-Golems
Golems are a species in Beatus, although we have currently not seen one in the series yet. Though we do know their existence as Pelusa is half-human, half-Golem. Pelusa is the only one of her kind, and is very powerful, even causing Zizou to be worried to some degree before fighting her. She wears blue-and-white armor and has a form change when she uses her Revenge Magic. It is not known whether Pelusa needs Syega to use magic or not, however.
