In folklore, a Proxy is often considered a type of familiar (occult) commonly seen among practitioners of the witching subculture and dating even further back to its roots, scrapwranglers. Description of proxies seem to drastically vary in their manifestation, nature, and purpose but are commonly described as extensions of personal traits. In regions where the influence of witchcraft practitioners is a important part of the cultural identity of a region, they are often considered to be symbols of personal growth, protection, and coming to terms with one’s inner self.
The existence and true scientific nature of Proxies is somewhat contested in many circles and a number of contradictions make them difficult to truly pin down.
