It's a hard movement and it's quick. It fits with a quick transfiguration into a hard helmet."
None of the other Gryffindors seemed like they wanted to participate thus far so she looked down at more spells. "Kurumi for Cambrair Scutum why don't we just make the motion a large circle counterclockwise to outline the shape of the shield we are making? It's a simple motion, but it relates and will work under the gun."
"
Sounds like a good idea to me," Kurumi nodded making the appropriate changes to her parchment. "
That is, unless anyone one objects." Everything was open to discussion after all.
Kurumi pressed finger against her lips as she thought a bit more. "
What about, for either one of our remaining shield spells, or perhaps an armor one, we do something where we draw the shape of a triangle in the air? It is said to be the strongest shape and in doing so could perhaps enhance the protective properties of the final result of the transfiguration." Kurumi's eyes brightened as she scanned the list a bit to see what spell she could apply it to. "
How about...Contego?"
Kurumi added that wand movement to her parchment and read over the spells. They DID seem to be missing a few spells dealing with transfiguring something into armor. "
Is there away to combine Corpus and Mutatio...like...Corpus Mutatious?" Kurumi asked tilting her head to the side. "
To, um, change one's clothing into armor...Perhaps adding the word of the thing you want to change at the end? Similar to what we did in Charms with Locomotor. So...something like Corpus Mutatious Jacket..."
Hey, it was worth a try, right?
