The Transfigurative Arts, Class-B

Chapter 3
Class-B on the other hand, is all about magical elevation and more global Transfigurative manipulation. Class-B Spells are performed through direct tampering with magical fields in the air around us. Now, for the Queen, this is amongst her favourite branches of magic and six notable spells hold this rank;

- Piscifors (Creationary)

- Ebublio (Banishment)

- Appicus (Amusement/Resourceful)

- Defundo (Creationary)

- Florifors (Amusement/Beautification)

- Globifors (Amusement/Beautification)

So what exactly does each one do?

- Piscifors: Generates and/or Transfigures objects into fish. Useful for deep-sea exploration and discovery. Spell only lasts as long as the will of the caster permits.

- Ebublio: Causes transfigured objects to erupt violently into bubbles before exploding and reverting to their original “Pre-Transfigured” state.

- Appicus: Conjures a swarm of bees which doing the bidding of the caster. Most useful as I sent them to collect honey for the Queen’s breakfast. They didn’t return with much, but it was still enough just for her, and that’s what matters!

- Defundo: Generates a small raincloud which can be altered in size (Depending on competency) and moved to differing locations.

- Florifors: Transfigures objects into and/or Generates in the air floral like entities. With differing scents and forever changing to suit the mood of the person passing by, they are the perfect gift at a royal wedding.

- Globifors: Cause bubbles of differing colours and shapes to appear; can be used to encase enemies and prevent their movement.

In my most professional opinion, I would have to say that when it comes to things in common, these spells are all utterly useless. Perfect for performing or around the house or for dazzling a crowd, but for serious sorcerers? I think not.

They do however teach the exact art of expanding magical fields and tearing rifts in magic.

Study and Examination: Defundo

Defundo is a very uncommon spell and often mixed up with the peasant spell “Diffindo”. Used primarily by farmers and vintners, it generates a rain cloud which can be altered in size and provides varying degrees of rain. Alike every spell, this one can be dangerous if left unattended or outside of a wizard’s competency level.

Invented by the peasant mudblood (who became a Lord for his discovery) Lord Tyronia of Eagles Cove, in 473AD, he was able to water all his crops during the hottest summer of the year and keep the village (and nobility) alive and in good health. As a gesture of good faith by the King, he was given land, titles and a wife. For many years this spell was kept a secret and the kingdom thrived and became more powerful from the magically grown plants. Unbeknownst to Tyronia, his wife had grown tired of how the fame had gone to his head and so had sought counsel with Marvolo of Highgate. In exchange for access to the spell, Marvolo promised he would convince Tyronia to calm down and revert to his original self. Two weeks after the spell tome disappeared, there came a night with the purest full moon. The villagers and the nobility were out dancing in the moonlight and enjoying the festivities. Lady Tyronia was the first to notice as the animals in the surrounding woods became silent and they could all only watch as Marvolo (atop a nearby building) summoned a storm beyond his control and completely destroyed the city and the land it was on.

Since then, historians and guides have forever warned of its power and insisted that individuals take heed when using it.

Performed by using the technique of Snufflifors , the wand is raised above the head and swirled three times as the spell is annunciated upon the last swirl. As the last swirl ends, the spell will spiral out in a white fog before becoming a dark silver. Although this spell promotes life, I would hardly call it “life-giving”. I am of the opinion, though few agree with me, that the caster of the spell is immune to its effects. Although the entire plain was destroyed, Marvolo somehow survived and his was last slain by the Great-Grandfather of the King.
