Alphabets

The first alphabet was the Phoenician Alphabet, which was created around 1050. Our alphabet today still looks a lot like it.

Incantations

Most incantations originate from Latin, one of the oldest languages. It is very important to het the incantation right during a spells sometimes nothing or barely anything happens if you get the incantation wrong but it could end horribly.

The Fire-Making Charm

Incantation: Incendio (‘in-SEN-dee-oh’)

Wand Movement: Curved flick up and down (as a flame)

Willpower: Low to very high depending on the distance of the target and the difficulty of igniting the target.

Concentration: Less needed for a simple light, more needed for a continuous stream of fire. On the target to be ignited.

The purpose of this spell is to make fire. The older you get and the more you study, the better this spell gets. This is also one of the oldest known spells.

The Locomotion Charm

Incantation: Locomotor (‘LOH-koh-moh-tor’)

Wand Movement: Full circle with an upward flick toward the target at the end, then pointed where the object should go.

Willpower: Moderate to very high, depending on the distance and weight of the object.

Concentration: Minimal concentration should be maintained on the target object.

This is more of a hover charm, instead of flying the objects only raises a couple inches and can only be move horizontally. When you have completed this spell you don’t need to keep concentration while it moves, but you do need to keep a bit of attention on it.
