First Year Spells

Body-Binding Curse - Petrificus Totalus

A curse that completely, but temporarily, paralyzes the victim. It is relatively simple to dispel, and
difficult to pull off against an experienced wizard, but the results are often worth the trouble.

Counterspell - Finite Incantatem, Finite, or Nonverbal

Counters a spell as it is being cast, or cancels an ongoing magical effect. Though taught at an
early age, the actual effects of this spell are heavily dependent on the power and skill of the
wizard casting it - it is widely used in everything from dueling to medicine, but has relatively
limited utility to novices.

Hair Loss Curse - Unknown

A curse, popular among children, which causes the victim to temporarily shed his hair.

Hot-Air Charm - Nonverbal

Releases a jet of hot air from the end of the wand. Useful for drying clothes, melting snow, and
other simple tasks.

Leg-Locking Curse - Locomotor Mortis or Tuimeihuan

Locks the legs of a victim together, preventing them from moving independently of each other.

Levitation Charm - Wingardium Leviosa

A basic charm mainly used for instruction purposes that causes an object to levitate at the
caster's discretion. Very skilled wizards sometimes find creative uses for it.

Lumos Charm - Lumos, Lianglang, or Chhalla

Creates a bright light at the end of the caster's wand, which will persist until it is dismissed or
specifically countered.

Nox Charm - Nox, Heian, or Tuta

Dispels a Lumos charm.

Scouring Charm - Scourgify or Caxiyi

Vigorously cleans the target - which can be a living creature, though this is considered somewhat
cruel.

Siphoning Spell - Tergeo

Used to draw material such as liquids or dust off of a surface. Often used for cleaning wounds.
Slug-Vomiting Hex - Unknown

Causes the victim to vomit slugs uncontrollably for several hours. A favorite of the immature and
chronically unemployed.

Tripping Jinx - Nonverbal

Trips the target with a motion of the wand.

Unlocking Charm - Alohomora

Unlocks nonmagical locks. Most magical locks are enchanted to be impervious.

Second Year Spells

Aparecium - Aparecium

Turns invisible ink visible.

Blindfolding Spell - Obscuro

Creates a blindfold over a victim's eyes. It may be physically or magically removed.

Disarming Charm - Expelliarmus

Causes the target's wand to fly from their hand. With sufficient power behind it, a Disarming
Charm may throw a victim back forcefully. Disarming Charms are mutually off-setting - when cast
against eachother, they generally deflect. The Disarming Charm is also an effective counter to
many spells.

Flagrate - Flagrate

Creates fiery marks in the wake of a wand - can be used to leave markings or writing on objects
or in the air.

Four-Point Spell - The command 'point me' in any language

The caster is able to discern the true cardinal directions.

Incendio - Incendio

Creates a jet of flame which expels from the wand. The power of this spell increases with the
skill and experience of the caster.

Packing Charm - The command 'pack' in any language, or nonverbal

Packs luggage at the direction of the caster, generally directed with the wand.

Repairing Charm - Reparo

Causes a broken object to piece itself back together. In the case of containers, this will not
replace anything that was held within. Wands, and most other magical items, can not be
repaired in this manner.

Serpensortia Curse - Serpensortia

Conjures a large snake which will attack anything (other than the caster) within a short radius. A
favorite spell among young Slytherins.

Shielding Charm - Protego, Dunbihu, or K'irara

Creates a shield from the caster's wand which deflects jinxes, hexes, and curses. The strength of
this spell is directly connected to the skill and talent of the wizard, and stronger versions can
protect against very advanced curses - or even reflect failed jinxes back against the attacker.
Other advanced uses of the spell include protecting an area from outside harm (Protego
Totalum); there are as many advanced variations as there are wizards to think them up.

Tickling Charm - Rictusempra

The victim experiences tickling sensations all over the body, a very distracting condition.

Third Year Spells

Anti-Boggart Charm - Riddikulus

A spell used in combating Boggarts, which causes the fearful image to appear in a far less
threatening - and usually humorous - form.

Cheering Charm - Unknown

Causes the target to become happy - heavy-handed or excessive use can cause uncontrollable
laughing fits, or even prolonged manic episodes.

Colour-Changing Charm - Unknown

Used to change the color of an object. Some wizards also use it for cosmetic purposes.

Dancing Jinx - Tarantallegra

Causes the victim to dance uncontrollably until dispelled, which can prove highly inconvenient
for clumsy or unsuspecting individuals.

Engorgement Charm - Engorgio

Causes an object to swell in size. This does work on living creatures, and is a popular charm for
use in trick candies, among other things.

Ferula - Ferula
A simple medical spell, which bandages and splints a broken limb.

Flame-Freezing Charm - Unknown

Protects a subject from harm from fires, a key component in the creation of Floo powder.
Notably, this charm is insufficient to protect a victim from Fiendfyre.

Impervius Charm - Impervius

Renders an object - often an article of clothing - impermeable to many substances and outside
forces, including water. Classically used for weatherproofing.

Locomotor Charm - Locomotor

Causes a specified object to move at the discretion of the caster, usually directed by movements
of the wand.

Reducing Charm - Reducio

Reduces an object expanded by the Engorgement Charm back to normal size, or causes an
object (or creature) to shrink to smaller than normal size.

Stinging Hex - Unknown

Causes the victim to suffer an intense and painful stinging sensation, which - much like real
stings - causes swollen red welts to appear over the surface of the skin.

Unbreakable Charm - Nonverbal

Causes a mundane object to become unbreakable by physical means, though strong magic can
still destroy it.

Fourth Year Spells

Anti-Hexing Charm - Salvio Hexia

A charm used to temporarily protect an area against jinxes and hexes. It is not infallible, but does
dramatically reduce the power of minor to moderate offensive spells for a short time.

Banishing Charm - Oicca, Otivni, or Qingyao

Opposite of the summoning charm, this banishes the object it is performed on. Like the
summoning charm, objects held by someone else are generally impervious.

Bucktooth Hex - Densaugeo

Causes the victim's teeth to grow at an alarming rate. Though it usually isn't dangerous, it can
sometimes have unseemly complications.
Episkey - Episkey

A simple healing charm, capable of restoring minor injuries. More serious afflictions require
greater magic.

Flocking Charm - Avis or Pisqu

Conjures a flock of small birds that emerge from the caster's wand. Creative wizards have used
this offensively.

Furnunculus Curse - Furnunculus

Causes the victim to break out in extremely painful boils, which may persist for several hours
unless tended to.

Hair-Thickening Charm - Unknown

Causes the subject's hair to thicken. It does have unscrupulous uses - repeated or irresponsible
use can cause hair to grow out of control.

Impediment Jinx - Impedimenta or Ch'iqmi

Impedes the progress of a target in a variety of ways - depending on the skill of the caster, it may
range from tripping and harassing to binding, knocking back, and even paralyzing the victim.

Jelly-Legs Jinx - Unknown

Causes the victim's legs to wobble uncontrollably, rendering movement difficult or impossible for
a short time.

Incarcerous - Incarcerous

Binds a victim with magically conjured ropes.

Obliteration Charm - Nonverbal

Used to eliminate things one doesn't wish others to see - specifically, things such as foot prints,
writing, and the like - while leaving the surroundings intact and undisturbed.

Quieting Charm - Quietus

Returns the volume of a magically enhanced voice to normal. Serves as the counter to the
Sonorous Charm.

Reductor Curse - Reducto

Causes a solid object to explode spectacularly. Famously used to destroy doors, sections of walls,
priceless Fabergé artwork, and antique furniture.
Severing Charm - Diffindo

Used to cut inanimate objects (the spell does not appear to function on living flesh), often used
in tailoring.

Sonorous Charm - Sonorus

Magically amplifies the caster's voice, allowing him to be heard over a great distance, or over the
roar of a crowd - essentially a magical microphone.

Stunning Spell - Stupefy, Checui, or Musphasqa

Debate rages as to whether this is a charm, a jinx, or a hex - but it is considered one of the basic
dueling spells. It temporarily stuns an opponent, rendering them inert for a few precious
seconds.

Summoning Charm - Accio, Invito, or Yaoqing

Summons an inanimate object to the caster. Objects held by someone else are generally
impossible to summon in this manner.

Switching Spell - Nonverbal

Causes one object to be switched with another of the caster's choice. Both objects must be
within relatively close range.

Fifth Year Spells

Anapneo - Anapneo

Clears the target's airway, if blocked.

Assaulting Hex - Oppugno or Awqana

Causes conjured objects or creatures to attack a victim.

Bubble-Head Charm - Ebullio capitis

Creates a bubble of fresh air around the caster's head, allowing them to breathe underwater, or
in other normally inhospitable situations.

Conjunctivitus Curse - Unknown

Causes great pain to the victim's eyes. A very useful spell in combating giants and kyklops.

Jelly-Fingers Jinx - Unknown

Causes a victim's fingers to become jelly-like and largely useless, unable to effectively grip or
manipulate things, for a short time.
Locking Charm - Colloportus

Locks a latch, preventing it from being opened by nonmagical means. Colloportus also prevents
the function of Alohomora.

Mobilization Charm - Mobilito or Kuyukuyu

Causes the target - usually something inanimate - to levitate and move at the caster's discretion.
Many related, object-specific charms have been devised, including mobilicorpus (for bodies) and
mobiliarbus (for trees).

Patronus Charm - Expecto patronum

Summons a patronus from the caster's wand. This is a very complicated spell, often taking years
to truly master. Students rarely manage a full-fledged, corporeal patronus before their seventh
year.

Protean Charm - Nonverbal

Allows magical copies of an object to be modified by modifying the original. Most famously used
by Hermione Granger to share the times of DA meetings.

Releasing Charm - Relashio

Forces someone or something binding the caster to release - it can break the grip of a hand or
unfasten chains or ropes. It has also been used as a defensive charm, and in skilled hands can
have concussive effects.

Rennervate - Rennervate

A moderately complex healing charm, which causes an unconscious subject to awaken. Some
conditions, such as powerful magically-induced unconsciousness, are non-responsive.

Silencing Charm - Silencio, Wushengxu, or Upalla

Silences the victim, preventing any form of vocalization. Can be used to disrupt powerful magic
that requires a verbal component.

Sliding Spell - Glisseo

Causes the steps on a stairway to flatten into a ramp or slide. Glisseo could conceivably be used
on other surfaces as well.

Vanishing Spell - Evanesco

work on living creatures.
Sixth Year Spells

Aguamenti Charm - Aguamenti

Produces a jet of water from the caster's wand.

Confundus Charm - Confundo or Ch'arwi

Causes the victim to become easily confused and readily manipulated - a confunded individual
follows most orders without question, but not especially competently.

Duplicating Charm - Geminio

Creates a worthless duplicate of any object on which it is cast. The duplicate will persist for
several hours before ultimately vanishing. Magical properties of a duplicated object are not
carried over.

burglar alarms.

A charm placed on objects to allow them to be more easily gripped. Mostly used in the
manufacture of quaffles for Quidditch, though a clever wizard could find endless uses for it.

Homorphus Charm - Nonverbal

A charm that forces animagi - and possibly werewolves as well - into their human form.

Imperturbable Charm - Unknown

Renders an object - such as a door - impenetrable both to sounds and objects. Useful for
ensuring the privacy of one's conversations.

Knee-Reversal Hex - Unknown

spellcasting) impossible.

Muffling Charm - Muffliato or Cuoshengyin

Prevents nearby people from hearing a conversation.

Scarpin's Revelaspell - Revellio

Analyzes the special properties and enchantments affecting a magical item. It is not infallible,
and both artifacts and objects enchanted with magic unknown to the caster usually fail to turn
up useful information.

Undetectable Extension Charm - Unknown

Magically increases the internal area of a dwelling or container. Frequently used to create
bottomless bags and mugs, and to create tents and structures with a larger-than-normal area.

Seventh Year Spells

Blasting Curse - Confringo, Jiancui, or Llikiy

Causes whatever the spell strikes to explode into flames.

blast through things.

Causes anything the spell strikes to explode, often with a significant degree of concussive force.

Flagrante Curse - Unknown

Causes a cursed object to burn and blister human skin when touched. A common theft
deterrent.

Fortifying Spell - Cave Inimicum

A spell used to strengthen an enclosure against intruders - reinforces anything from castle walls
to the rain fly of a tent.

Gemino Curse - Unknown

When an object bearing this curse is touched, it will self-duplicate, creating dozens of worthless
copies. A common theft deterrent.

Hardening Charm - Duro, Raqtaq, or Gangying

Hardens an object considerably, though it does not work on living flesh. The uses - and double
entendres - are endless!

Levicorpus Hex - Levicorpus or Nonverbal

Levitates and dangles a victim by the ankles, a spell that has its roots in hazing rituals nearly two
centuries old.

Liberacorpus Charm - Liberacorpus or Nonverbal

The counter-charm to the Levicorpus Hex, this gently returns a dangled victim to the ground.

Memory Charm - Obliviate or Wangjiyi

Causes a subject to forget a particular event; may also me used to cause extensive memory loss,
which is usually impossible to recover.

Reveals people near the caster. The Revealing Charm can effectively locate magically concealed
individuals as well, including those under the effects of an invisibility cloak.

Adult Spells

Animation Spell - Piertotum Locomotor

or an area. Classically used on statues, suits of armour, etc.

Anti-Cheating Spell - Unknown

Used by professors on quills and parchment, to prevent cheating on exams.

Anti-Apparation Jinx - Unknown

Prevents apparation or disapparation within an immediate area for a short time. Used to prevent
enemies from entering (or escaping from) an area by magical means.

Bedazzling Hex - Unknown

Used to conceal a person or object. It can also be used as part of the complex process of crafting
an invisibility cloak.

Caterwauling Charm - Unknown

An alarm spell that lets off a high-pitched shriek whenever someone crosses its border.

Cruciatus Curse - Crucio

Causes unbearable pain on the victim without leaving lasting traces of physical harm. Prolonged
exposure to the agony of the Cruciatus Curse has been known to cause permanent insanity and
brain damage. One of the Unforgivable Curses.

Cutting Curse - Sectumsempra

Cuts in an arc determined by the path of the caster's wand. Wounds inflicted with this spell do
not heal normally, and are resistant to simple magical healing, though advanced healing spells
usually show good results. It is not unheard of for sixth and seventh year students to learn this
spell, though it is considered very dark magic, and the use of it on another student would
certainly lead to severe punishment.

Deletrius - Deletrius

Used to remove the evidence of prior spells cast with a wand. While not actually taught at
Hogwarts, it has become very common in the student body, with most students fifth year and
above capable of casting it.

Disillusionment Charm - Unknown

Used to conceal a person or object. It can also be used as part of the complex process of crafting
an invisibility cloak.

Dolohov's Curse - Unknown

Causes severe internal injuries to the victim.

Entrail-Expulsing Curse - Unknown

Causes the victims intestines to forcibly expel from the body, a torturous and painful method of
killing.

Fidelius Charm - Unknown

Designates an individual a "Secret Keeper", rendering them the only person capable of sharing
one specific secret entrusted to them.

Fiendfyre - Nonverbal

Conjures extremely dangerous, destructive, and mostly uncontrollable fire. Fiendfyre is not
extinguished by water, and has no loyalty to the caster. It has, in the past, been used to destroy
even powerful artifacts. Though the use of Fiendfyre is not taught to students, it is conceivably
possible for upperclassmen to discover the spell - likely to their immense detriment.

Imperius Curse - Imperio

The victim is beholden to the whims of the caster, performing every command - spoken or
unspoken - to the best of his abilities. While some have shown the ability to resist, it is
exceedingly difficult, as being under the effect of the curse is a truly blissful experience. One of
the Unforgivable Curses.

Killing Curse - Avada Kedavra

Kills the victim. Though there is no known counter or blocking spell, the curse follows a linear
arc, and must physically strike the victim. Furthermore, it requires a genuine desire to kill,
without which it is entirely ineffective. One of the Unforgivable Curses.

Legilemency - Legilemens

The incantation for intrusive legilemency - delving deep into a victim's mind and simply taking
the information you need. The use of legilemency is generally frowned upon, and rarely learned.

Portkey Spell - Portus

Converts an object into a portkey. The caster must be intimately familiar with both locations the
portkey will connect to. Creating a portkey is very difficult and advanced transfiguration, usually
reserved for the brightest of wizards.

Repelling Charm - Repello

Repels an undesired object, individual, or group from approaching an area - usually defined in
the casting of the spell (for example, Muggle-Repelling Charms are commonly used in the
wizarding world). Though not infallible, it generally makes those subject to it have no desire to
investigate a particular place. The efficacy of this spell against talented wizards and powerful
magical creatures is questionable.

Stealth-Censoring Spell - Unknown

Protects an area temporarily from magical means of stealth, rendering most invisibility cloaks
and charms useless.

Taboo Jinx - Unknown

Places a taboo on a specific word, allowing the caster to find any individual who speaks it.
Obviously, this could backfire dramatically. A wizard who placed a taboo on the word 'and' would
quickly go mad from over-stimulation.

Tongue-Tying Curse - Unknown

Prevents the subject from revealing a specific piece of information, causing his tongue to twist
and contort if he tries to break secrecy.
