”Mutare Pellem transforms the outer layer of your skin to become fur, feathers, or whatever you visualize it to be.” Visualization was the key here.

”Of course I can demonstrate it for you, dear.” Felicity pictured her arm looking the way that the front leg of her raccoon form looked. ”Mutare pellem.” She swished her wand over her arm. Suddenly the professor’s entire arm was coated in thick gray raccoon fur. ”You have to visualize what exactly you want it to look like before performing the spell, or else it won’t work very well.”

And...why not the sun?” he said retracting his hand back and waited for the professor’s answer.
”The moon is associated with many strong magical powers, but I do not know what the exact effect of the moonlight is on the mandrake leaf. There is some very advanced magical theory behind this question. Take a point for an excellent question.”

”This is a transformation of the outer layer of your skin. It can change your skin to whatever you can visualize and have the ability to do, all within the limitations of transfiguration of course.” A first year probably wouldn’t be able to get this sort of thing right away, as any sort of human transformations were quite complex and difficult to master.

He knew that was typically the reversal spell for most Transfiguration spells, but sometimes there were exceptions. "Or does it eventually wear off?”
”The length it lasts depends on your wand power and concentration. The spell can be ended with Reverto.” Did they all remember the t=(wc/va)xZ formula?

”I do not know of any cases where someone has used a sticking charm on the mandrake leaf. The exact effect that a sticking charm would have on the mandrake leaf is, as far as I know, unknown. Take a point for an excellent question.”

”If you have practiced the wand movement and incantation and feel ready to try the spell, please do so now. If you wish to keep practicing the incantation and wand movement separately, that is alright. You will need to visualize how you want your skin to change, for example, to fur.” Felicity held up the arm coated in raccoon fur. ”Only the area of skin that you do the wand movement over will be affected. This is an advanced spell, so I do not expect all of you to be able to do this successfully today, especially the younger students. Do not be discouraged if it doesn’t work the first time.” The lesson would be ending soon, but there was still enough time for the students to try the spell.
