The fourth year pressed her lips together in thought. "No...I don't think so..." Self-flattery was hardly a reason to be demoted, right? Besides, "You were never undemoted from last term, I don't think, anyway." And she didn't think he could get demoted twice. It didn't work like that.

"Wouldn't any kind of shield charm be...I guess a cross between defence, charms, and transfiguration? Because you're producing something out of nothingness, that's transfiguration. But the shield part is defence. And their called charms. Some of them." That took too much thought. "And that one...that it's a charm...but it changes how something looks..." Ellie didn't and wouldn't know the name of it.

And, she was pretty sure she filled her 'answers' quota for...the year, probably.

Take three points each. Charms is that branch of magic which deals with spells that produce a superficial change in the object. This could mean altering how it looks, how it acts, and the things it is capable of - all on a superficial level. This could mean levitating the target, giving it wings, changing its size or colour and so on. Remember that a charm does not change the inherent nature of an object - that is transfiguration. Transforming an object into, or reverting an object to, one that has a different set of vital functions - like a cup into a mouse - and conjuring objects out of nothingness is all part of transfigurational magic." "Keeping that in mind, do you think there are some spells studied as charms, that could be called transfigurational spells? Or where the boundaries between Charms and Transfiguration blur?"
