>>Restoration: The utilization of magical power for the healing of wounds, diseases, and other maladies. Spells falling under the restoration school include cure blindness, soothe burns, and scratching that itch on your back that you can't quite reach.

>>Pyromancy: The hot and searing lovechild of magic and fire. One can cast fireballs, ignite objects through touch, and breathe fire, among other feats, utilizing this dangerous magic.

>>Electromancy: When magic met the thunderclouds, electromancy was born. Shooting lightning bolts from one’s fingertips, knocking foes to the ground with thunderclaps, and creating objects capable of electrocution are all possible within this school of magic.

>>Watermancy and Frostmancy: Two powerful schools of magic placed into one class due to their similarities. One can utilize the great force of water to create a tsunami, freeze opponents, and purify water for drinking.

>>Naturemancy: The masters of this school of magic whom are called Druids wield significant influence over plants and fungi. Smacking down enemies with tremendous tree roots, accelerating crop growth, and trapping opponents in choking vines are all possibilities with this magic.

>>Animagus: Transform into both vicious and docile creatures utilizing this useful school of magic. Accomplish such feats as evading your enemies by shapeshifting into a rat and shimmying through a tiny hole in a wall, only to reappear in front of them around a corner as a menacing lion.

Forbidden Magic:
For a multitude of reasons, these magics have been BANNED from practice by all spellcasters as ordered by the League of Sorcerers and Sorceresses (the LSS). You may not study these spells in any classes on campus, I am merely telling you of their existence so that you can be warned of their terrible power. Being caught casting, using, or studying these spells while on campus will lead to swift expulsion and deportment to Azkaban. We greatly encourage any students to report to faculty should they have suspicions of these magics being practiced by other students.

Necromancy: The dismal and inhumane manipulation of the dead for one’s own biding. Corpses can be raised, life essence can be drained, and bolts of death energy can be delivered utilizing this abysmal magic.

Luck: The realm of magic that was created by the lady of the same name at the dawn of creation, all of our lives and spells are connected to the will of her mythical die to a degree. Unfortunately, through one way or another, spellcasters have managed to tap into Lady Luck’s powerful energy and manipulate their existence’s die for their own benefits. Such acts are atrocities against the very fabric of reality, and are regarded as plain and simple cheating by the majority of spellcasters.

Entropy: Tearing the very fabric of reality apart does no one any good, but several spellcasters just want to see the world burn…and implode on itself, apparently. Terrible feats like combining realities and *gasp* time travel have almost been performed through studiers of this magic, making it the most dangerous of them all.
