Zoopathy

Zoopathy is the supernatural ability that enables the user to communicate with animals. Some individuals who possess this ability are limited to only communicating with a particular type of animal.

Description
Zoopathy is a language that enables the user to understand the languages used by animals and communicate said animals. As such, individuals who do not possess this specific gift cannot understand what is being said when the individual is speaking. Apart from merely communicating with animal lifeforms, witches who possess zoopathy also seem to be able to influence the will of animals to a certain extent. Similarly, zoopaths can communicate with other zoopaths in the language of animals.

This specific witch gift is highly heritable, with almost every zoopath possessing one or more parents who can speak to animals and producing children who can also all speak to animals.
