Witherbloom is the College of Essence Studies at Strixhaven

The Witherbloom college has its students draw power from opposing and rival forces, with the best example being life and death - their conflict is based on whether existence is driven by the propagation of the species (green) or escaping the clutch of death (black). These spells are crafted using natural components like the essence of living creatures or herbs. While many students use their powers for the greater good - like defending the ecosystem from pollution and/or harmful forces - the college motto of "Get Your Hands Dirty" certainly applies to students who use their abilities for death and corruption. 

Witherbloom mages need life essence in order to channel their magic, and the creatures that most frequently do the job are simply called pests. Pests are salamander-like, generally irritating creatures that dissolve readily into magical power for Witherbloom spells. Most mages outside of Witherbloom think of pests as awful creatures: they are disagreeable, hissing, spiky, untrainable monsters that bite without hesitation. But Witherbloom mages often carry pests around, doting on them as pets—pets that also serve as convenient sources of life essence.
