The Ongoing Adventures of James Sirius Potter - James Potter series

* Velocito Expendum – An inertia-transference charm used to propel an object by magical
means; demonstrated by Professor Curry on a football.
* Visum-Ineptio – A “fool the eye” charm which works by exploiting a viewers’ expectations
of what they should be seeing. It is used by the Gremlins to deceive Frank Tottington during
the raising of the Wocket. Horace Birch teaches Zane this spell to use on the substitute
satchel.
Wingardium Leviosa – A levitation spell which enables the user to both raise objects and
cause them to fly. Ralph learned this spell in Prof. Flitwick’s class and it is speculated it was
what he used to stop James’ precipitous fall from his broom during Quidditch try-outs.
Flora and Fauna: Several unusual plants and animal have been introduced.
*Blusterwermps – Part of the diet of the Umgubular Slashkilter.
*Figgle – Part of the diet of the Umgubular Slashkilter. It has nothing to do with House
Elves, other than that Figgle’s mother, unfortunately, seemed taken with the name.
Flobberworm - A ten-inch, toothless brown worm to which Ted compares his old Nimbus.
*Grotto Vine – Vibrant green-gold plant which emits a humming sound; may be related to
Devil’s Snare.
*Knucklewood Tree – Rare talking tree (possibly extinct) from which Merlin staff is made.
*Larcenous ligulous – Vine-like plant attracted to shiny objects, such as jewelry, which it
uses for photosynthesis. Reportedly bred by magical pirates for use in thievery.
Mimbulus mimbletonia – A special favorite of Prof. Longbottom, the rare plant is an
important vegetable resource.
Octogator – We don’t actually know what this is but is sounds nasty. It has been suggested
that it may be a hybrid of the relatively rare Gigantica Octopodus and the common alligator,
but we have no confirmation from the author to that effect.
*Spynuswort Plant – Versatile plant with a wide range of uses from healing skin diseases to
waxing brooms; all of its parts, from tip to root, are valuable and useful.
Umgubular Slashkilter – Mentioned in previous documents, but never fully explained, this
flightless raptor is distantly related to the hippogriff and octogator. The spoor smells
pepperminty due to its diet. Luna has apparently been conducting additional research on this
creature.
