Charm 

Deludes the mind, but its precise integration is unknown. Can be used to befuddle humans or disguise objects. Likely it simply manipulates the mind.

"She used a Charm, and I don't remember what I said."

Shield 

A shimmering blue orb that encircles a selected area. Repels physical objects and magic alike with the exception of silver objects.

The bullet passed clean through my Shield and exited on the other side.

"What kind of Shield do you call that?"

"They're using silver bullets."

Inferno 

A spell that envelopes its target in green flames; however, unlike a Detonation, it is more of a burning fire than an explosive one. Useful for burning people with magical resilience, whose clothes can still burn.

"It could have been an Inferno, except that the edges around the hole aren't singed."

I used a small spark on him and instantly he burst into flames, the petrol burning.

Flame

A spell most likely used by Djinn and Ifrits who harness ample control over fire. Useful for starting gentle fires, unlike Infernos which are more voracious and destructive flames.

The Flame in the palm of my hand vanished. "Now that wasn't very polite."

Flux 

A magical attack with little background. May be similar to a Convulsion or Spasm.

They sent a Detonation and an Inferno at him; I threw in a Flux for variety.
