		+
		+	Technological devices, armor and vehicles in particular, can be designed with a fetish mindset. The operator of a machine acts trough the machine - there is no need for you to move your own body, and in the case of vehicles it is often much safer to be restrained than to bounce around freely inside the vehicle. To truly be a "witch" requires that this be coupled with some kind of supernatural power, but "bondage pilot" or "bondage warrior" is good enough for many of us.

-	~~==== Game Notes ====~~	+	The learned mage might practice self-bondage to free her astral self from physical limitations, as noted for the Bound Sorceress above. Some secret meditations might require restraint to learn the lesson fully. Once captured and properly bound, she might find her powers bursting from inside, taking all her art to just contain her newfound powers.

		+	=== Sorcery ===
		+	Sorcery here is magical power coming from inside the sorceress, gifts or an inheritance rather than learned. A sorceress taps into her own inner power to work magic, and this becomes easier the more emotionally involved you are.
		+
		+	Bondage stimulates the emotions of the sorceress, be it fear, resentment, vengeance, excitement, or blissful submission. From this release comes magical power, and the bound sorceress might well orgasm in the middle of each magical release.
		+
		+	=== Spiritual ===
		+	Spiritual power is the power of gods, spirits and the community. A channeler acts as a conduit and agent for higher beings.
