The Standard Book of Spells

 
By Miranda Goshawk

  • Accio – a summoning spell; with various amounts of power and skill, it can retrieve things from anywhere.
  • Alohomora – a spell used to open locks.
  • Anti-cheating Spell – this spell is cast on quills used for tests, to keep the students who are using them from cheating.
  • Aparecium – used to make invisible ink... visible.
  • Apparate – this spell makes the caster appear in the certain place. Leaving the place is Disapparating.
  • Avada Kedavra – one of the worst kinds of curses, this makes a blinding green light and gives the target instant death. Another of the Unforgiveable Curses. There are no discovered ways to block it.
  • Avis – causes a flock of bird to fly out of the end of the caster's wand.
  • B
  • Bubble-Head Charm – a charm used to surround the target's head with a bubble, which allows the target to breath underwater.
  • Blue Fire – a spell used to create a small, blue fire, capable of burning anywhere including under water.
  • C
  • Cheering Charm – a charm used to make people happy; in essence, "cheer you up"
  • Confundus Charm – a charm used to confuse people.
  • Conjunctivitus Curse – gives the target conjunctivitus (inflammation of the layer of the eye covering the white part of the eye).
  • Crucio – also known as the Cruciatus Curse, this curse is used to torture people by forcing them to experience the worst, most horrible kind of pain. When done repeatedly, it can drive people insane (as torturing tends to do). Another of the Unforgiveable Curses.
  • D
  • Deletrius – Gets rid of a prior incantato
  • Densaugeo – this curse will enlarge whatever it hits.
  • Diffendo – breaks things; is especially adept at splitting apart seams.
  • Disapparate – this spell makes the caster leave a certain place and appear in another. Appearing in the place is Apparating.
  • Dissendium – this spell was used by Harry to open up the hump of the one-eyed witch.
  • E
  • Enervate – revives a target who has been stupefied.
  • Engorgio – enlarges the entire target (opposite of reducio).
  • Expecto Patronum – A spell which creates a ghostly white creature known as a patronus which drives dementors away. It is usually made of happy thoughts. The happier the thoughts, the stronger the patronus.
  • Expelliarmus – a disarming spell, mostly used in duels. It sends the target backwards and forces whatever they're holding out of their hand, sending it straight to the caster.
  • F
  • Ferula – Makes an instant bandage or splint out of thin air
  • Fidelius Charm – an immensely complex spell, "involving the magical concealment of a secret inside a single, living soul." The secret in question is concealed within a Secret-Keeper, and it is impossible to find, unless the Secret-Keeper tells someone.
  • Finite Incantatem – a spell used to end all other spells previously cast and still in effect.
  • Furnunculus – this curse creates boils on whatever person it hits.
  • H
  • Homorphus Charm – a charm used to force werewolves back into their human forms.

  • I
  • Impedimenta – also known as the Impediment Jinx, this causes the target to slow down and freeze in their tracks for a few moments.

  • Impervius – a spell used to make something repel water.
  • Incendio – A spell to start a fire
  • Instant Scalping – scalps the target instantly.
  • J
  • Jelly Legs Jinx – this jinx causes the target's legs to become weaker, forcing them to, er... wobble instead of walk.

  • P

  • Peskipiksi Pesternomi – I'm not entirely sure, all I can think of is that it's a spell to round up pixies.

  • Reparo – Instantly repairs objects such as glass
  • Rictusempra – a tickling charm.
  • Riddikulus – a spell used to destroy a Boggart.
  • Sectumsempra - A powerful spell that slashes your opponent's flesh.
  • Serpensortia – This spell sends a serpent out of your wand.
  • Shield Charm – This charm casts a temporary, invisible wall around the caster, protecting them from minor curses.
  • Sonorus – a spell used to magnify the target's voice to a volume like a mega-phone (opposite of quietus).

  • T
  • Tarantallegra – forces the target to dance

  • Up! – a simple summoning spell, used to call a broomstick into your hand.
  • W
  • Waddiwasi – a spell used to shoot chewed gum up someone's nose. (*lol* Sorry, I'm sure that's not it's only use, but that's what Lupin used it for...)
