Scáth Draíocht
written by Okami Ambrose
A book found deep in a ruined city forgotten by time, it has been translated from the runes in which it was written. Thus, some translations may not be as detailed as others. The spells it holds are ancient and very powerful. Many would be considered "Dark magic" by today's standards.

*Cargo Ink.
A potion with a base liquid of dark ink, ingredients include Ashwinder tails, Redcap Caps, and Ground Lethifold. The rarity of some of the ingredients makes it difficult to brew, as is the final step, which is dipping your wand in the potion and casting the Undetectable Extension charm while stirring with the other hand.
It looks like a dark, dark, ink, enough that it almost sucks some light from the surroundings, and the audible elements sound like the bottle, flask, or cauldron is deeper. If you dropped a 150 ml flask, it would sound like a 5 L bottle fell. If you hit a .5 L cauldron full of it on the side with a wooden stick, it would sound like a 50 L cauldron was it.
It is tattoo ink. Very very expensive, due to the difficulty to brew and rarity of ingredients, as well as short shelf life of only 6 months. If tattooed on the body, it is very painful, like an infected second-degree burn, for an entire month at the location of the print as well as the two adjacent joints. Creates a space in the part of the body that can store objects. You would touch the spot with any part of the body, think the object stored, and it would appear in your hand or in front of you, as relevant. The amount storable depends, not on the size of the tattoo, but the complexity, where a large black square might have as little as a small purse, a small, incredibly intricate Indian henna style could carry as much as a van, with the maximum size being a shipping container. It also imbues the knowledge of what is stored, like how Smaug knows what he has and how much at a glance. Time and space would be nearly stopped inside, so a pizza stored for a week would still be hot, all the cheese still in place. To store something, you must touch it and "take it" mentally, and it will dissolve and be stored.
*Accersi: conjures minions from your imagination. They will only last an hour, but they can help you in battle, do household cleaning, and just about anything in between.
*Conscientia: creates a "shared consciousness". It allows you to share a thought or thoughts with another wizard/muggle. It can be anything from a string of words to images to any kind of sensation. If they are words, the subject will hear the spell-casters voice loudly and clearly, yet still be able to hear the outside world
*Dormito: used to put someone in a sort of suspended animated deep sleep
*Drakio: Creates a sandstorm up to 70mph
*Gesra: Places the surface of the water in stasis, allowing an individual to cross water as if it were land without disturbing the water itself.
*Humor Excoquatur (Drying charm): causes moisture to evaporate in an instant, and liquids to evaporate without boiling (speed subject to the nature and volume of the fluid, and proficiency of the castor)
*Percussio (Extrema): sends a cone of low-frequency sound that vibrates the object the wand points at. If the full spell is used it will have an extremely dangerous amount of power.
*Śānta gīta {shaant geet}: can be used to calm wild beasts.
*Sensharens: Sharpens all of your senses simultaneously. Particularly handy in a time of panic, or distress.
