This charm assists the rider in handling a racing broom more effectively. The Firebolt also has an Unbreakable Braking Charm."

"Three points each to Ravenclaw, Gryffindor and Slytherin," Professor Vindictus said. "Other charms include protection charms that allows a broomstick to drift off on its own if you fall from your broom. Basically, each broom has been charmed by highly skilled wizards who excel in their craft. The magic placed on a broom doesn't replace the skill of the flyer, but rather protects and enables you to fly with amazing speed and dexterity."

"Early in the lesson, I mentioned the International Statute of Secrecy. Does anyone know what this says in their own words?"
