*Kala puts jammies on and snuggles with Kappa-plushie in an armchair* she says to James "Bah. Where's the Nightbus when you need it?" and takes a long sip of chammomile tea "Mmmm tea is so lovely and soothing. What's your favorite cold-weather drink?"
((It's not actually cold here yet, but my air-conditioning doesn't have a low button so it's freezing inside! stressed ))

"Ah, I suppose you're right. Tea will be useful once I master Divination. And too much coffee makes me sickly.. but hot chocolate is very tasty. Do you prefer marshmallows in yours?
I was wondering too.. is Butterbeer served warm?" Kala muses and then hears the sound of drums beating in the distance... "Let's put on our war-paint, my slimy Slytherins, it's time to kick non-Magical blood butt!"

PostPosted: Thu Sep 11, 2008 11:33 am


sorry about the double post but i have something that i think will be very useful for the event and this is only part one



Accio

Latin for “to summon”. Summoning charm, used to make objects fly straight to
the spell caster.


Aguamenti

Causes a jet of water to come from the end of the caster's wand. The speed
of the jet is controllable: Harry used it to refill a small goblet in the
Horcrux cave, whilst a short while later, he and Hagrid used it to douse the
flames on Hagrid's Hut when it was on fire.


Alohomora

From Hawaiian “Aloha” which means “hello/farewell” and Latin “mora” which
means “obstacle”. This spell is used to open a locked door or window. While
it will not unlock all magically sealed doors, it works well against
"Colloportus."


Anapneo

Greek for "breathe". Clears the airways of the person who the spell is cast
upon, allowing them to breathe properly. Horace Slughorn cast this on Marcus
Belby when he accidentally swallowed a large mouthful of pheasant.


Anti-Cheating Spell

A spell that teachers at Hogwarts use on quills or exams to prevent
cheating.



Anti-Disapparation Jinx

When cast on a person, it prevents them from Disapparating. Dumbledore used
this jinx to bind the Death Eaters in the Death Chamber at the Ministry of
Magic.


Anti-Intruder Jinx

Repels intruders. These were cast on the Hogwarts walls for the 1996-97
school year to protect the students following the return of Voldemort.


Aparecium

“Appareo” is Latin for “appear” or "to become visible". Used to reveal
invisible ink.


Apparate

“Appareo” is Latin for “to become visible”. This spell allows the spell
caster to appear instantly in a given place. It is used in conjunction with
Disapparate. The caster must Disapparate from one location in order to
Apparate in another.


Avada Kedavra

A corruption of "abracadabra" which was used as a Healing Spell to drive
disease from the patient's body in the Middle Ages. Its likely source is
either the Arabic "abra kadabra" (may the things be destroyed), or the
Aramaic "abhadda kedhabhra" (disappear with these words).

The Killing Curse. It requires a strong bit of magic behind it; the
incantation alone is not enough for the spell to work. When cast
effectively, Avada Kedavra kills instantaneously, producing a blinding flash
of green light but leaving no mark on the victim's body. There is no way to
block or counter the Killing Curse, and the only people ever to survive it
are Harry Potter and Tom Riddle. Avada Kedavra is one of the three
Unforgivable Curses and its use against another human being is punishable by
a life sentence in Azkaban.


Avis

Latin for “bird”. Conjures a flock of birds.


Backfiring Jinx

Effect unknown, but the casting of such a jinx in Elephant and Castle (a
district of London) was serious enough to require the Magical Law
Enforcement Squad to be called out.


Babbling Curse

Causes the victim to babble nonsense. Lockhart once cured someone of this
curse on his travels. Or not.


Banishing Charm

The opposite of Accio, causes an object to fly away from the caster.


Bat-Bogey Hex

Maybe the effects of this are best left to the imagination. Causes bogies to
grow, become bat-like, and attack the victim. Ginny casts this spell on
Draco Malfoy in Order of the Phoenix.


Blasting Charm

A charm used to good effect by Alberta Toothill in the 1430 All-England
Duelling Competition, where she used it to defeat the favourite, Samson
Wiblin.


Bubblehead Charm

Used to create a bubble of air around the caster’s head. Often used to allow
the caster to breathe underwater.


Cheering Charm

Not much is known about these, but it’s safe to assume that they make people
happy.


Colloportus

From the Latin "colligere," meaning "bind together" and "portus," meaning
door. This spell is used to magically seal doors, but is not particularly
effective. It can easy be countered with Alohomora, which will open any door
sealed with Colloportus.


Colour-Change Charm

Causes an object to change colour. This spell also works on organic matter,
as Harry was meant to cast it on a rat during his Charms OWL in order to
turn it orange. Unfortunately he got the incantation mixed up with the
Growth Charm and it ended up the size of a badger before he could stop it.


Colour Flash Charm

Possibly a variant of the Colour-Change Charm, this is used to make the item
it is cast on flash different colours. It was used by Hermione on a “Potter
for President” banner the Gryffindors had made for Harry’s first Quidditch
match in his first year to make it more eye-catching.


Concealment Charm

Used to conceal something so that it cannot be seen.


Confundus Charm

“Confundo” is Latin for “to confuse”. Used to confuse an object or person,
to make them believe what the spell caster wants them to.


Conjunctivitis Curse

Conjunctivitis is an inflammation of the conjunctiva (mucous membrane that
lines the surface of the eyelid and the exposed surface of the eyeball), and
is taken from the Latin "conjunctus," meaning "joined together."

This curse is aimed at the eyes of the victim and causes the eyelids to
crust together so that the victim cannot see. In addition to loss of sight,
it seems to cause pain to the victim as well.


Conjuring Spells

These are a type of spells taught in NEWT-level Transfiguration classes.
They are not strictly Transfiguration-based, however, in that they are used
to conjure items into existence from nowhere. These spells are used
repeatedly by skilled wizards in the books, for example where Dumbledore
conjures mead for himself and the Dursleys when he goes to pick Harry up
before Harry’s 6th year, where Flitwick is conjuring Christmas decorations
from his wand to decorate the school, and where Mr Ollivander creates smoke
rings and a fountain of wine during the Weighing of the Wands.


Crucio

Latin for “to torture”.

The Cruciatus Curse. This inflicts severe physical pain on whomever it is
cast upon. To effectively use the Cruciatus Curse, the witch or wizard
casting the spell must have the genuine desire to cause pain. When
effectively used, the curse is excruciating and has the ability to drive
victims insane. As such, it is one of the three Unforgivable Curses. The use
of this spell against another human being is punishable by a life sentence
in Azkaban.


Curse Alleviation Charm

When Katie Bell was injured by the cursed necklace from Malfoy, Professor
Snape did everything that he could to prevent a rapid spread of the curse.
The magic he performed is unknown, and so it is included here simply as a
Curse Alleviation Charm.


Curse of the Bogies

Professor Quirrell told his class about this curse, although its exact
effect is unknown. Something to do with bogies, no doubt.


Cushioning Charm

Creates an invisible cushioned area. It is primarily used in broomstick
manufacture to make the brooms more comfortable to sit on.


Daydream Charm

This gives the spell caster a highly-realistic 30 minute daydream, according
to its inventors Fred and George Weasley. Daydream Charms can be found for
sale in Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes.


Deletrius

“Delete” means “to erase”. Used to erase spell images conjured by Priori
Incantem.


Densaugeo

From the Latin "dens," meaning "tooth," and "augeo," meaning "increase,
enlarge."

Enlarges the teeth of the victim.


Diffindo

Latin for “to split”. A spell that rips an object in half or causes things
to separate. It is likely to be the same spell as the Severing Charm. See
also "Severing Charm".


Disapparate

From the Latin "disparitio" meaning "disappearance," or "dispareo" meaning
"to vanish."

This spell allows the caster to disappear instantly from any given place
with a soft popping sound, or alternatively a loud cracking noise. The sound
made seems to be different from one spell caster to the next. It is used in
conjunction with Apparate. The caster must Disapparate from one location
before he or she can Apparate in another.


Disillusion

Literal meaning is to remove an illusion. Generally used to indicate
unhappiness with a situation.

Spell used to hide something. Typically used to hide magical objects and
occurrences from Muggles.


Dissendium

This is possibly a path-revealing spell. It was used to open a secret
passage to Hogsmeade.


Drought Charm

Dries up a limited amount of water. Harry decided he probably wouldn't be
able to use it to dry up the entire Hogwarts lake.


Engorgio

“Engorge” means “to fill to excess”.

The Engorgement Charm. Causes the target to enlarge. See also "Enlargement
Charm".



Enlargement Charm

Similar to an Engorgement Charm (Engorgio), this causes an object to swell
in size. The Weasley twins put an Enlargement Charm on a copy of The
Quibbler which contained Harry's interview, so it may be that the
Engorgement Charm works only on organic matter (ie animal or vegetable),
whilst the Enlargement Charm works on other objects.


Ennervate

Revives someone, especially someone who has had Stupefy cast on them.


Entrail-Expelling Curse

Invented by Urquhart Rackharrow, 1612-1697. Effect unknown, but presumably
involves expelling entrails.


Entrancing Enchantment

Entrances the person the spell is cast upon.


Episkey

From the Greek "episkeyi" meaning "repair". A healing spell. Tonks used to
it repair Harry's nose when it was broken by Malfoy on the Hogwarts Express.
It may also work on bones, and may therefore have been the spell Lockhart
was attempting to cast when he accidentally removed all the bones from
Harry's arm.


Evanesco

Latin for “to vanish”.

This spell is used to make an object vanish. It is assumed this spell works
only on objects, and not on people. Note that this spell actually makes the
object disappear rather than just turn invisible. An Invisibility Spell is
required to have this effect. Evanesco is also known as the Vanishing Spell.


Expecto Patronum

"Patronus" is Latin for "protector".

The Patronus Charm. When literally translated, the phrase "Expecto Patronum"
means, "I expect a guardian." The Patronus Charm is highly advanced magic,
beyond Ordinary Wizarding Level. It is used to ward off both dementors and
Lethifolds and probably works against other creatures as well. To conjure a
Patronus, the spell caster must speak the incantation ("Expecto Patronum")
while concentrating hard on an extremely happy thought or memory. When the
charm is cast successfully, the spell caster's wand emits a Patronus; a
stream of silvery vapor that takes on the shape of an animal. The type of
animal the Patronus assumes depends entirely upon the witch or wizard who
conjures it, reflecting certain traits of the caster's personality. The
Patronus is the embodiment of the caster's happy memories and acts as a
shield, protecting the witch or wizard.


Expelliarmus

Latin for “to expel a weapon”.

This spell is used to disarm an opponent. Although a simple spell, it causes
the victim's wand to fly out of his or her hand, depriving its victim of his
or her primary weapon and means of defense. When used by many people on a
single target in tandem, the spell is powerful enough to knock the target
off of his or her feet, as was demonstrated on Severus Snape in Harry Potter
and the Prisoner of Azkaban.


Extinguishing Spell

Puts out fires. This was used by the keepers of the dragons used in the
Triwizard Tournament.


Featherweight Charm

This charm is used to make something lightweight so that it can be carried
more easily.


Ferula

Conjures a splint and bandages.


Fidelius Charm

“Fidelis” is Latin for “faithful friends”.

This is a complex charm that allows someone or something to be hidden away,
often times in plain sight, for an indefinite period of time. The location
of the hidden people or items is a secret known only to one person, the
Secret-Keeper, and the information is stored within their very soul. The
Secret-Keeper is the only one with the power to divulge the secret. The
information remains undisclosed until said time when the Secret-Keeper
decides to reveal it; not even those who have been told the secret
information can reveal what they know. However, the Secret-Keeper does not
have to directly speak with someone to tell him or her the secret, the
information can be disclosed in a letter as long as the Secret-Keeper is the
one who wrote it.


Finite

From the Latin “finis,” meaning “end.” Similarly to Finite Incantatem, this
removes spell effects. It may be that Finite stops a single spell whilst
Finite Incantatem stops all current spells. Remus Lupin cast this spell on
Neville Longbottom in the Department of Mysteries to remove the effects of a
Tarantallegra curse.


Finite Incantatem

From the Latin "finis," meaning "end." Removes the effects of any spells
currently cast.


Fire Charm

When Harry and Dumbledore were attacked by Inferi in the Horcrux cave,
Dumbledore created a ring of crimson and gold fire to protect them. This may
be simple a Dumbledore-powered version of Flagrate or Incendio, or it may be
a separate fire creation charm.


Flagrate

“Flagrantia” is Latin for “burning”. Makes the spell-caster able to draw
lines of fire with their wand.


Flame Freezing Charm

Charm used by Medieval witches to remove the effects of the fire when they
were burned at the stake. It is a good idea at this point to scream a bit
and pretend to be burning.


Flying Charm

Different to Wingardium Leviosa, which merely makes objects float in the
air, the Flying Charm allows them to be maneuvered by the user and turns
them into genuinely controllable flying items. The Flying Charm is used on
broomsticks (as confirmed by Draco Malfoy when he was criticising Ron's
broom in 1995 - "why would anyone put a Flying Charm on a mouldy old log
like that?" being the words he chose), and also presumably Flying Carpets.
It is clear that Flying Charms can be cast only on objects rather than
animals or people, as it is well known that no spell yet exists that allows
a wizard to fly unaided.



Freezing Charm

Used by Hermione to immobilise Cornish Pixies in Professor Lockhart's first
Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson, following Lockhart's pathetic attempt
to deal with them himself. Freezing Charms are also effective in disabling
Muggle burglar alarms.


Fur Charm

When Ginny was upset about the spate of Petrifications at school during her
first year, Fred and George embarked on an ill-conceived campaign to cheer
her up. One thing that they did was to cover themselves in fur and jump out
at her from behind statues. Far from cheering her up, however, it merely
caused her to have nightmares.


Furnunculus

Makes the victim's body break out in boils. When used in conjunction with
the Jelly-Legs Jinx it causes tentacles to sprout all over the victim's
face.


Gripping Charm

Allows a person to grip an object more effectively. This was invented in
1875 and is primarily used in Quidditch to allow the Chasers to handle the
Quaffle one-handed whilst still keeping a grip on their brooms.


Growth Charm

Similar to the Enlargement Charm and the Engorgement Charm, this spell
causes the target to increase in size. The precise differences between these
three enchantments are unknown. Harry got confused during his Charms OWL and
cast a Growth Charm on a rat he was meant to be turning orange. It had grown
to the size of a badger before he could stop it.



Hair Growth Jinx

A spell cast on Alicia Spinnet by Miles Bletchley before the Gryffindor vs
Slytherin Quidditch match in 1995. It caused her eyebrows to grow so fast
they obscured her vision.




Hair Loss Curse

Makes the victim lose their hair. Covered by Professor Vindictus Viridian in
his book on curses and counter-curses.


Hair-Thickening Charm

Causes hair to thicken. During the build-up to the Gryffindor vs Slytherin
Quidditch match in 1995, Alicia Spinnet was hit from behind by a curse from
Miles Bletchley that caused her eyebrows to grow so fast they obscured her
vision. Professor Snape refused to believe this and stated that she must
have attempted a Hair-Thickening Charm on herself.


Hex Deflection

It is unclear whether this is a spell or a branch of magic (such as
Occlumency). Either way, it is used to block or deflect magic cast as you.




Hives Hex

Causes the victims face to erupt in hives. Hives are raised lumps on the
skin, usually caused by an allergic reaction.


Homorphus Charm

From "Homo" meaning "man" and "morphus" meaning "transform". Used to force a
werewolf to revert to human form. Lockhart claimed to have used this against
the Wagga Wagga Werewolf. He didn't, of course, but it is likely that it is
a real spell.


Horcrux Creation Spell

After committing the act of murder, the Horcrux Creation Spell is used to
encase the torn portion of the killer's soul into an object or creature.
This is exceptionally advanced and evil magic, and even Horace Slughorn did
not know any details at all of this spell when the young Tom Riddle asked
him about it.


Horn Tongue Hex

Turns the tongue to horn. Harry found this hex in a book when he was trying
to work out how to defeat a dragon in the first task of the Triwizard
Tournament. He decided not to use it as it would just give the dragon an
extra weapon.


Horton-Keitch Braking Charm

Patented by Basil Horton and Randolph Keitch, this charm aids broomsticks in
slowing down in a controlled manner. It is used on broomsticks made by the
Comet company.


Hot Air Charm

Causes hot air to stream out of the end of the caster's wand. This is
similar to Relashio, but in the case of the Hot Air Charm, no sparks are
released. A complicated wand movement is required to cast this spell but no
incantation. Hermione used it to dry her robes in winter 1995, and also to
create a path through the snow.



Hover Charm

Makes an item hover in the air. Famously used by Dobby on Aunt Petunia’s
pudding.



Hurling Hex

Professor Flitwick thought that Harry's new Firebolt broomstick - a gift
from Sirius Black - might be jinxed with this hex. It is likely that it
causes the rider to be thrown off the broomstick.


Immobulus

"Immobilise" means to prevent moving.

Stops an object moving. The name of this spell comes from the films rather
than the books but is included here as it is very likely to be the "clever
Freezing Charm" used by Hermione to immobilise Cornish Pixies in Professor
Lockhart's first Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson. See also "Freezing
Charm".


Impedimenta

“Impedimentum” is Latin for “a hindrance”. Use to stop or slow down a person
or creature (as opposed to an object).


Imperio

From the Latin "impero," meaning "to give orders, rule, hold sway," or
"imperium," meaning "power to command, rule, control." The Imperius Curse.
This is used to control the actions of another person, leaving that person
at the mercy of the spell caster. The experience of being under the curse is
described as a fantastic sense of release, until the victim starts to fight
back. The curse can be fought and its hold broken, but many witches and
wizards are unable to do so. Because of its very dangerous implications, the
Imperius Curse is one of the three Unforgivable Curses. Use of this curse
against another human being is punishable by a life sentence in Azkaban.


Imperturbable Charm

Impeturbable means “not able to be disturbed”. Creates a barrier which
sounds, objects and people cannot cross.


Impervius

Impervious means “incapable of being affected”. Used to make an object
resistant to water.


Incantation Free Magic

Whilst the vast majority of spells have a notional verbal component, any
spell can in fact be cast without speaking by a sufficiently talented
wizard. It appears that it is the power of the mind and the body which
causes the spell to take effect, and the incantation is merely a vehicle
used to help create the necessary mental and physical conditions for the
magic to be successful. The more advanced the magic, the more difficult it
is to cast without its verbal component, and even Voldemort can be found
using the incantation for spells such as Avada Kedavra. Non-verbal magic is
taught in the sixth year and above at Hogwarts.


Incarcerous

“Incarcerate” means to shut in. Summons ropes which then bind the victim.


Incendio

“Incendo” is Latin for “set fire to”. Creates fire.


Intruder Charm

The wizarding equivalent of a burglar alarm. It makes an audible signal when
the area covered by the charm is entered by somebody or something.


Invisibility Spell

Fred and George Weasley used this spell to good effect in their range of
Headless Hats. Hermione was particularly impressed that they’d managed to
make the range of invisibility go beyond the charmed object. This spell is
different to Evanesco in that Evanesco actually causes the item to cease to
exist rather than simply making it invisible.


Inanimatus Conjurus

From the Latin “inanimus”, meaning “inanimate”, and the word “conjurus”, a
derivative of “conjure”.

A spell mentioned in passing as homework in Harry’s fifth year. The effect
is unknown, but presumably involves conjuring inanimate objects. Professor
McGonagall said at another point that Conjuring Spells were NEWT level
magic, and so this is probably a simplified version.


Instant Scalping Hex

Removes the hair from the victim – instantly. Harry consulted the book
"Basic Hexes for the Busy and Vexed" in preparation for the Triwizard
tournament and found this spell but discarded it due to the fact that
dragons have no hair.

PostPosted: Thu Sep 11, 2008 11:34 am


ok now im posting part two of three


Jelly-Legs Jinx

Makes the victim’s legs shake uncontrollably.



Knee-Reversal Jinx

When the ball from an early Quidditch game landed in Gertie Keddle’s cabbage
patch, she was not impressed, and hexed the man who came to fetch it. The
Knee-Reversal Jinx was the spell she used, which had the expected effect on
his knees.



Knitting Charm

This charm enchants knitting needles. Hermione bewitched knitting needles to
knit house-elf hats all by themselves for the SPEW cause.


Langlock

Glues the victim's tongue to the top of their mouth. Harry got this spell
from the Half-Blood Prince and used it twice on Argus Filch and again on
Peeves.


Leek Hex

Causes leeks to grow out of the ears. In the build-up to the Gryffindor vs
Slytherin Quidditch match in 1994, a nasty incident occurred in which a
Gryffindor 4th-year and a Slytherin 6th-year ended up in the hospital wing
with leeks sprouting from their ears.


Legilimens

From the Latin root "lego," meaning "to gather, collect, pass through,
read."

This is a practice very similar to Muggle mind-reading, except the
Legilimens actually explores another's mind and sees the memories stored
there. A skilled Legilimens can target the memories that are most hurtful,
causing the most pain or fear and use that knowledge to manipulate the
person whose mind they have entered. Occlumency is the defence of the mind
against such an attack.


Levicorpus

From "levo", which is Latin for "to raise" and "corpus", which is Latin for
"body". Dangles the victim by their ankle in mid-air. It looks as though an
invisible hook is holding the person up. Harry cast this on Ron to find out
what it did, and many years before, it was cast by James Potter on Severus
Snape. This is ironic, as it was Snape that invented the spell.


Liberacorpus

From "libaro", which is Latin for "to set free" and "corpus", which is Latin
for "body". The counter-spell to Levicorpus. It releases someone from being
dangled upside-down so that they crash to the floor.


Locomotion Charm

Parvati and Lavender were practicing this spell in preparation for their
OWLs, making their pencil cases race across the table. It is likely to be
the same spell as Locomotor XXXX, shown below.


Locomotor Mortis

The Leg-Locker Curse. Causes the victim’s legs to lock together. The
incantation for this spell is of a similar form to the “Locomotor” spell but
doesn’t seem to sit very happily with it, considering the very different
effects.


Locomotor XXXX

“Loco” is Latin for “place”. “Moto” is Latin for “to move”. Causes an object
to travel floating in the air. The incantation used is Locomotor XXXX, where
XXXX is the object that the caster wishes to enchant.


Lumos

“Lumen” is Latin for light. “Luminosus” is Latin for “bright”. Produces
light from the end of the caster’s wand.


Memory Creation Charm

Quite different from the Memory Charm "Obliviate", this spell actually
creates false memories in the victim. It is an exceptionally complex piece
of magic and so rare that the authorities do not even consider that it might
have been done when they obtain confessions from criminals. This was
certainly true in the case of Morfin Gaunt, who had a memory of killing the
Riddle family placed in his mind by Voldemort and was sentenced to life in
Azkaban.


Mobili-XXXXX

“Mobilis” is Latin for “moveable”. When XXXXX is replaced by an object, the
object is forced to move.


Morsmordre

From the Latin "Mors", meaning "death"" and the French "mordre", meaning
""to bite"". Hence the literal meaning is "to bite death", which is
consistent with the name of the Death Eaters, who cast the spell.

Produces the Dark Mark. This spell was cast for the first time in 13 years
by Barty Crouch Jnr at the Quidditch World Cup. It was also cast at Hogwarts
when the Death Eaters, aided by Draco Malfoy, infiltrated the school.


Muffliato

From the English word "muffle". Fills the ears of anyone near the spell
caster with an unidentifiable buzzing. Harry got this spell from the
Half-Blood Prince and usually used it to hold conversations in class without
being detected.


Muggle-Repelling Charm

Used to keep Muggles away from things that wizards would prefer them not to
see. No harm is done to the Muggles in question.


Nox

Latin for "darkness".

This spell counters "Lumos" by extinguishing the light "Lumos" creates.


Obliteration Charm

“Obliterate” means to wipe out, leaving no trace.

This was used by Hermione to wipe out tracks in the snow. It may be able to
remove other marks as well.


Obliviate

"Oblivio" is Latin for "forgetfulness".

The Memory Charm. This spell erases sections of the memory of the victim as
chosen by the spell caster. It can wipe out the entire memory if the caster
so chooses. The Memory Charm deprives victims of essential knowledge, giving
them amnesia-like symptoms that may be incurable.






Occlumency

From the Latin "occlude," meaning "to close, shut up, close off."

This is the defense of the mind against external attack. Occlumency is the
only way to protect one's mind from someone using Legilimency.


Orchideous

Named after the orchid, a type of flower. Creates flowers from the caster’s
wand.


Oppugno

Latin for "to attack". Causes something to attack a target chosen by the
spell caster. Hermiones used it to cause a small flock of conjured birds to
attack Ron, and so it has been confirmed that it works on living creatures.
It may work on objects as well.


Permanent Sticking Charm

Charm used to attach one thing to another. Permanently.


Pepper Breath Hex

Harry found this spell in "Basic Hexes for the Busy and Vexed" when he was
researching ways to fight a dragon during the first task of the Triwizard
Tournament. The effect is unknown, but presumably gives the target person or
creature hot or fiery breath. Harry decided not to use it against the
dragon, as it would just increase its firepower.


Peskipiksi Pesternomi

Used by Lockhart to attempt to get rid of Cornish Pixies. It had no effect,
probably due to the fact that he’d just made it up.


Petrificus Totalus

An adaptation of “totally petrify”. Renders the victim temporarily unable to
move.


Placement Charm

Used to remotely position an object. Presumably similar to object moving
spells such as Locomotor, except that the Placement Charm allows for
accurate positioning of the target object.


Point Me

The Four-Point Spell. This spell causes the spell caster's wand to act as a
compass. By holding the wand in open palm and saying the incantation ("Point
Me"), the wand automatically points North.


Portus

"Porta" is Latin for "gate".

This spell is used to turn an object into a Portkey. Portkeys are used to
transport people from one location to another almost instantly. A Portkey
requires direct physical contact in order for it to work properly. The use
of Portkeys is closely monitored by the Office of Magical Transportation.


Possession

This involves magically inhabiting or taking over the body of another person
or creature. Whilst Voldemort was hiding out in the forests of Albania, he
took to possessing small creatures – mainly snakes – to give himself a
temporary physical form. He is also in the habit of possessing Nagini, and
possessed Harry during the battle at the Department of Mysteries as well.
Harry suffered extreme pain during possession, but this is likely to be due
to his own unique links with Voldemort, as Nagini showed no signs of pain
when she was possessed.


Prior Incantato

From the Latin "priori prius," meaning "former, prior" and an adaptation of
the English word "incantation."

The Reverse Spell Effect. When cast, this spell causes a wand to create an
echo or ghostly image of the last spells it performed in reverse
chronological order. A similar effect is known to occur when two wands
sharing a magical core taken from the same animal (not just another animal
from the same species) engage in battle. Brother wands cannot fight each
other. Instead, the wands lock together, connected by magical energy. One of
the wands will eventually force the other into a Reverse Spell Effect, which
when it happens in this manner, is referred to as Priori Incantatem.


Protean Charm

A spell which links the appearance of several items. When one item is
changed, the others change in the same way.


Protego

Latin for “protect”.

The Shield Charm. This creates a magical shield to deflect minor to moderate
spells and jinxes cast by others. It is not advanced magic, as Harry managed
to cast a very effective Shield Charm against Severus Snape whilst
practicing Occlumency during his fifth year, but none-the-less a large
number of adult witches and wizards are not proficient at it. The Weasley
twins have taken advantage of this situation by marketing a range of Shield
clothing which carries the charm and repels magic as though the wearer had
cast it themselves.





Pus Hex

This spell was cast by Morfin Gaunt on Bob Ogden, when he went to visit the
Gaunts as a representative of the Magical Law Enforcement Squad in
connection with Morfin's attack on Tom Riddle Snr around 1925. It caused his
nose to erupt into a cascade of pus, which could only be stopped through
magical means.


Quietus

Adaptation of "quiet".

This spell negates the effects of the Sonorus Spell, making a magically
magnified voice return to its normal state.


Reducio

Adaptation of “reduce”.

This spell causes an object shrink. It also negates the effects of the
Engorgio Spell, returning any magically enlarged item back to its original
size..


Reducto

This spell is used to blast solid object into pieces. It does not work on
anything that is not solid.


Refilling Charm

Causes a container to refill with whatever liquid it was originally holding.
Harry cast this on Slughorn's wine bottles when he was getting drunk with
Hagrid after Aragog's funeral.


Relashio

This spell creates heat from the end of the wand. Normally sparks burst from
the wand tip as a result of this spell, but if the wand is underwater, the
spell produces jets of boiling water instead. When cast with enough vigour,
this spell can be powerful to knock somebody off their feet if it is cast at
them.


Rennervate

This may be a spell that revives an unconscious person. The incantation is,
however, curiously close to the known spell Ennervate which has similar
effects, and so when Harry attempted to cast this on Professor Dumbledore in
the Horcrux Cave, he may simply have been mis-casting Ennervate in the heat
of the moment.


Reparo

Latin for “to restore”. Mends the target object.


Repelling Spell

Repels an object.Repelling Spells were used during early Quidditch matches
to prevent the Snidget leaving the playing area.


Restoring Spell

Used to make someone in their animagus state return to their normal form.
Sirius and Remus used this spell against Pettigrew in the Shrieking Shack to
make him revert to human form. The spell creates two flashes of bright
light, after which the target animagus is transformed, with the effect
looking like a speeded-up animation.


Revelaspell

Invented by Scarpin, this is used to identify the ingredients of a potion.


Rictusempra

From the Latin "rideo risi risum," meaning "to laugh at, laugh."

The Tickling Charm. Causes uncontrollable laughter in the victim.


Riddikulus

Adaptation of "ridiculous".

Causes an item, creature or person to take on a humorous appearance of the
spell caster's choosing. Particularly useful against Boggarts, who are
destroyed by laughter.

part three of three sorry about it being so long but this is every spell from the movies and the books including unforgiveables all spells are in alphabetical order


Scourgify

From the English word "scour", meaning "to clean".

Used to clean an item. This spell was used by Tonks to clean Hedwig’s cage
when she help Harry pack before going to Grimmauld Place. James Potter also
used it on Snape when he was bullying him.


Scouring Charm

Probably the same spell as Scourgify, although this is never stated
explicitly. Hermione tried to teach this charm to Neville to clean his
fingernails with, after Snape made him disembowel a barrelful of horned
toads in detention.


Sectumsempra

From the Latin "sectio", which means "to cut", and "semper", which means
"always". Causes deep wounds to be immediately cut into the victim, as
though they were being slashed with an invisible sword. Harry used it
against Malfoy, not knowing what it did and was shocked at its effect. He
used it again against the Inferi in the Horcrux cave, with little effect.
This spell was invented by Severus Snape whilst he was a student at
Hogwarts.


Serpensortia

From “serpent”, a snake.

Creates a snake from the caster’s wand.


Severing Charm

Cuts one thing from another. This is usually intended for use on items, but
does work on living matter as well, as it is known that Crups living in
Muggle-inhabited neighbourhoods are required to have their forked tails
removed with a Severing Charm. If used on humans, this charm would provide a
handy means for Dark Wizards to kill people, creating a powerful alternative
to Avada Kedavra and has the advantage of not being Unforgiveable.


Shock Spell

A medicinal spell which treats the patient for shock.

A witch who wrote in to The Quibber following Harry's interview suggested he
try a course of Shock Spells in order to restore his sanity.


Side-Along-Apparition

"Appareo" is Latin for "appear" or "to become visible".

When Apparating, it is possible for a qualified wizard to Apparate someone
else as part of the process in addition to themselves. This technique is
known as Side-Along-Apparition. The passenger being carried must grip
tightly on to the Apparator in order to ensure that they are transported
correctly.



Silencio

From “silent”.

This charm forces any person, creature, or object it is cast upon to fall
silent, unable to make any audible noise.


Slug Curse

Causes the victim to burp slugs.


Sonorus

Latin for “loud”.

Projects the voice of the spell caster, making it very loud.


Spark Charm

Causes sparks to be emitted from the end of the caster’s wand. This may be
the same spell as Relashio.


Specialis Revelio

"Specialis" is Latin for "special", and "revelo" is Latin for "to unveil".
Causes an item to reveal anything that has been hidden by magical means.
Hermione used it to make sure there was nothing untoward hidden in the
Half-Blood Prince's copy of Advanced Potion-Making.


Stealth Sensoring Spell

Rather like a Secrecy Sensor, this spell detects illicit behaviour and
alerts the caster. Professor Umbridge had cast this spell on her office door
when Harry broke in to contact Sirius using her fireplace.


Stinging Hex

Produces a painful red weal on the victim’s body.


Stretching Jinx

Causes something to stretch. Molly Weasley thought Harry and Ron looked like
they'd had Stretching Jinxes placed on them due to their rapid increase in
height. Therefore the Jinx may work on organic matter as well as objects,
but Molly may have just been flippant.


Stupefy

"Stupefy" means "to dull the senses".

It may also derive from the Latin "stupefactus," meaning "stunned." This
spell produces a bolt of red light and stuns whoever it is cast upon,
knocking the victim unconscious. A single Stunning Spell is not strong
enough to do any lasting damage to a victim, but multiple stunners cast on
one target can cause serious harm, as was done to Professor McGonagall in
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. The spell "Ennervate" can undo
the effects of the Stunning Spell and bring victims back to consciousness.


Substantive Charm

Effect unknown. Seamus revised this spell for his Charms OWL exam.


Switching Spells

These are a class of spells which change items from one thing into another.
This is the major branch of Transfiguration. It is not clear whether there
are a number of related spells for different types of switching or whether
it is all done with a single spell, as no details of this are given.


Talon-Clipping Charm

Harry found this charm in a book about dragon care when he was researching
ways to defeat a dragon for the first task of the Triwizard Tournament. He
decided it wouldn’t help him much.


Tarantallegra

The Tarantella is a fast Italian dance. Causes the victim’s legs to dance
uncontrollably.


Tergeo

Latin for "to wipe, scour or clean". Spell used to clean something. It may
be restricted to cleaning liquids; otherwise it would be no different from
Scourgify. Hermione used it to clean the blood from Harry's face after his
nose had been broken.


Thief's Curse
Effect unknown. Dumbledore ordered that every copy of Quidditch Through the
Ages sold to Muggles was enchanted with this curse to prevent them reading
it without buying it.


Toenail Growth

Charm Causes the victim's toenails to grow alarmingly fast.


Tongue-Tying

Curse Effect unknown, but probably something to do with tongues.

Covered by Professor Vindictus Viridian in his book on curses and
counter-curses.


Transforming Spells

A close relative of Switching Spells, this class of charm is used to change
living creatures (as opposed to items) from one thing into another. This is
the other major branch of Transfiguration. It is not clear whether there are
a number of related spells for different types of transformation.


Transmogrifian Torture

Lockhart thought that this had been used to kill Mrs Norris when she was
found frozen rigid in 1992.

It hadn't of course - perhaps because no such curse actually exists. IN
fact, Mrs Norris was not dead at all and had been petrified by a basilisk.



Trip Jinx

Causes the victim to trip over.


Twitchy Ears Curse

Makes the ears of the victim twitch uncontrollably. Harry suffered a bad
case of Twitchy Ears after a particularly rigorous DADA lesson on hex
deflection from Moody/Crouch.


Unbreakable Charm

Makes an item unbreakable.


Unbreakable Vow

This spell creates a magical treaty between two people. The two
participating parties must link their right hands in order for the spell to
be cast. A third person, known as the Bonder, is also required to witness
the pact and magically seal it. The tip of the Bonder's wand must be placed
on the linked hands, and the terms of the treaty are made. As this is done,
flame issues from the wand and winds itself around the hands of the
participants. At this point the Unbreakable Vow is made, and if the terms of
it are broken by one of the participants, they will die. It is likely that
no other spell can counteract the effects of the Vow once it is made.


Unplottable Charm

Used to make a location unplottable. This is a security measure effective
against both Muggles and wizards/witches, which is used to make it
impossible to plot the charmed building or location on a map.


Vanishing Spell

See "Evanesco".


Waddiwasi

Causes an item to fly at high speed where the spell caster wants it to. This
is likely to be a single variant of a general XXXXX-wasi spell which can be
cast on any item. The XXXXX in this case was chewing gum, which is the
“waddi” part.


Wandless Magic

Traditionally, magic requires a wand to be used, although this is not always
the case. There are frequent examples of wandless magic throughout the
books, and so it seems reasonable to assume that whilst the wand is a useful
(and often vital) channel for magical power, gifted wizards can successfully
cast spells without it when necessary. The more advanced the magic, the more
difficult it is to cast without a wand, however, and there have been no
examples of advanced spells being cast wandlessly. Severus Snape used a
wandless Accio to summon the ropes that he'd just used to tie up Remus Lupin
to his hand in the Shrieking Shack in Prisoner of Azkaban, whilst Harry's
early life was littered with wandless magic such as his removal of the glass
in the reptile house at the zoo. In addition to this, house-elves never use
a wand for their magic.


Wingardium Leviosa

Taken in part from the Latin root "levo," meaning "to raise, lift up."

This spell causes an object to levitate. Once levitating, the object can be
manipulated in midair by the spell caster.


Wound Healing Spell

Heals wounds and causes the skin to knit back together. Professor Snape used
this charm on Draco Malfoy after Harry had attacked him using Sectumsempra.
