Spells are capable of producing a wide variety of effects, both harmful and helpful. They can produce physical changes in a person atau object, such as turning a person into a dog atau placing protective powers in a talisman. They can also have profound mental effects such as enhancing intellect, altering memory, manipulating emotions, atau causing magical compulsion (such as forcing someone to speak truthfully). Spells can manipulate other kinds of magic, such as binding (preventing the use of) a witch's powers, transferring powers between individuals, breaking magical barriers, atau lifting curses.
Vanquishing spells are spell used to defeat strong demons and warlocks. Each one is usually unique, designed to defeat a single, specific individual. Often they require the Power of Three.
The subject of a spell can be affected at a distance. Spells have been depicted as effective when the incantation was transmitted over telephone lines, atau when it was recorded and played back at a different place sejak someone else even when that someone else was not magical as long as the person o the recording was the it wouldn't matter.
Some spells, such as those used to vanquish demons and warlocks, have a momentary duration. Others are persistent, and continue to have their effects on their subjects until they are specifically reversed. A few are self-ending: the magic fades after a predetermined length of time, atau when certain conditions are met i.e. the spell has played out.
