Very good, you are both correct. As stated by your textbooks, "Charms are a type of magic spell concerned with enchanting an object to behave in a way that isn't normal for that object. For example, the Summoning Charm brings an object to the caster. Charms is also something of a catch-all for spells which aren't Transfiguration (spells which change the inherent nature of an object). In some sense, if a spell isn't Transfiguration, it's probably Charms." Now, there are all sorts of charms that do all sorts of things. Can anyone name a charm and what it does? |
