Charms 302: Types of Spells. The Softening Charm - Spogyfy

 Empezamos las clases practicas en este año de tercero y para ello vamos a hacer el hechizo de reblandecimiento.  Pero antes vamos a ver un poco de teoría y para ello vamos a hablar de las clases de hechizos: Estático o dinámico

Paraello usaremos un libro: A Book of Standad Spells by Miranda Goshawk

Para hacer el hechizo de reblandecimiento llevaremos unas esponjas o peluches en forma de ladrillo o roca y primero mostraremos a los alumnos y alumnas que son rígidos y duros. Después tras efectuar el encantamiento (spongify) les mostraremos que los objetos son blandos y fáciles de moldear

 

Good afternoon class! This is our thir year in our Charms Class, so please take good notes to ensure your final goes as smoothly as possible. As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Today we will be exploring the two categories spells fall into. 

Charms 302. Categories of Spells. The Softening Charm

The category that a spell falls into is based on the concentration and the end product and desired effect of the spell. All spells are organized into two groups: static or dynamic.
Static Spells

Static spells are defined by Educational Decree Number 13 as “spells wherein one no longer has influence over the condition of the target once the casting has finished.” What this means is that static spells are spells that, once cast, have an immediate effect that you cannot change until the spell is complete. These spells require no prolonged concentration. Examples of these spells would be the Wand-Lighting Charm

Dynamic spells are defined by Educational Decree Number 13 as “spells wherein the caster may maintain some connection to and/or influence over a target, even long after the casting has been completed.’ This means that dynamic spells are spells ones where you must maintain a flow of concentration with the spell in order to keep the spell going. Some examples of dynamic spells are the Mending Charm or the Levitation Charm

Now I hope everybody has his or her wand at hand because the class is going to turn from static into dynamic (from theory to pracise class). In this ligth I´mgoing to teach you a new spell that comes very handy when neccessary. The Softening Charm. This charm allows you to make hard objects softer in order to 

The Softening Charm temporarily modifies the properties of the target object, making it a bit squishy and slightly bouncy like some plush toys, closer to the consistency of a rubber ball. The charm is useless against living matter. Attempting to cast it upon a living thing causes nothing to happen to their living cells, though hair, nails and fur might be a little softer for a short time. Other materials, depending upon their hardness and density, may remain unaffected as well.

   

Incantation: Spongify (SPUHN-jee-fye)
