Lesson 3) Wand Properties and Movements
Chapter 3
- Wands focus magical power and are essential for most wizards.
- Wandless magic is harder and takes longer to learn.
- Wands choose their owners and can perform differently for each person.
- Ash wands are good for defensive charms; Phoenix feather wands can be unpredictable.
- Wands have parameters: length, flexibility, wood, and core.
- Flexible wands adapt easily; rigid wands resist change.
- Wands are made from a single type of wood, not multiple.
- Core materials include unicorn hair, dragon heartstring, and phoenix feather.
- Using multiple cores weakens or causes wand explosions.
- Unicorn hair, dragon heartstring, and phoenix feather are the main wand cores.
- Each core has unique properties and qualities.
- Wand movements are crucial for spellcasting.
- Different spells require different gestures.
- The Mending Charm (Reparo) repairs non-magical items.
- Visualize the fully repaired object and maintain the visualization.
- The Unlocking Charm (Alohomora) unseals locks.
- Use a backward S curve wand movement.
- Visualize unlocking the lock.
