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."

Obedient Breath

A small wind easy to manipulate magically. Used for bypassing magical nexuses by spreading their threads until the gap is big enough to walk through.

I used an Obedient Breath to spread the threads farther apart, too subtle to trigger it.

Glaze

A spell for mind manipulation. Makes the target forget what they were doing at the moment.

A couple officers approached us, but I used a Glaze on them to send them away.

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."

Dimmu Borgir

Norwegian symphonic black metal band. While middle-aged people generalize their lyrics as dark and angsty, unlike The Beatles, they have the ability to cover more than one topic in a single album, including poetically challenging extremist conservative religious fanatics, the definition of morality, telling a narrative of Satan's assistant, and several more if you understand Norwegian.

Occasionally their music videos or lyrics contain unjustifiably objectionable material, but I interpret that this is their message to their fans not to become mindless followers of their band.

If you had to mass-generalize Dimmu Borgir, you'd have to call them a cross between heavy metal and classical.

Compression

A more obscure spell that compresses the target into (typically) a small stone.

The Foliot was crushed into a stone as I launched a Compression at it.
