Fantastic group of students were fantastic! "Quite right," she nodded, making a mental note on who really spoke up. "It is indeed a silver shield, used to protect yourself from either magical or mundane attacks. And vhile they can take a good deal of damage, the strength these shields hold depends on your own ability with the spell. Granted, even first timers vith this spell can create a strong shield, but the more you practice, the more it'll be able to vithstand."
"Vot I vont you all to keep in mind though," she spoke, not particularly taking time for them to write notes. It was in their books after all, and had been required reading, "is that this charm conjures a physical shield. It's not like your standard protego shield, so it vill be a little bit more difficult to accomplish for those who do need to spend a bit more time in the branch of transfiguration... vhich is completely fine and normal."
Scooting some of the parchments she brought in around, her gaze lingered on a particular section before continuing. "I can say that it isn't quite similar to the patronus charm, Miss Valentine," she smiled, glancing momentarily to the Gryffindor. "Though I may say that they do have similarities in color. Speaking of similarities and differences however..."
"Does anyone haff an idea on just vhy some people may prefer using this silver shield spell in place of the protego shield charm?"
