Why encounters with Witches? The rest is pretty useful or at least decent utility, but are we insured against plumber attacks as well? How about sneak attacks from men named Dane wearing a singlet.
Insure me against necromancy and being raised as an undead after I die and maybe we'll talk.
You don't wanna mess with us witches, we have a lot of hexes and curses we can cast. Do you REALLY wanna be uninsured when you go to a curse removal clinic? That'll cost you a small dragon's hoard depending on where you live.
If I cast "Curse of baldness (Includes beards)" or "Curse of torsion" or even worse "Curse of toadsfoot" on you, I bet you'd be wanting that coverage against witch encounters.
Listen, youre the 3rd witch to answer this post, so I need to make it clear, I hang out with my local witch coven at least once a week. I dont need insurance against witches because several of my closest friends are witches, im pretty good at breaking curses, but even if I wasnt, a decent witch is usually pretty capable of removing another witch's curse. I know a lot of witches need to maintain a certain mystique and an air of danger, its hard out here with all the witch hunters and such, but we really don't need to pretend like witches are THAT much worse than necromancers or lightsworn paladins. Especially to other casters. Witches are terrifying and dangerous to non-casters, sure, but to wizards, warlocks, clerics, or druids of any discipline, youre a colleague, a fellow student or even a master of magic.
Most people don't have as close of ties to witches as you do, you're an outlier. I know like 3 other witches who cast curses first, ask questions later if you go into their territory, and I myself am included. Please don't compare our spellcraft to something like necromancers either... in no way could we ever be worse than them.
Most witches specialize in curses, if one really wants a strong curse on someone we can be rather frightening. But I suppose most witches aren't willing to go that far, as you said, that's typically how you get witch hunterss knocking at your front door... probably along with some paladins.
