An essential tool for curse-breakers, Deprehensio Mutatio, is a spell which can detect the presence of transfigured objects. Throughout history, common switching and transformation spells have been used to deter Egyptian grave robbers from finding the secret tombs hidden within the pyramids of the pharaohs. Even in ancient catacombs, including Rome and Paris, this spell has been notoriously useful searching for hidden tombs to excavate gold, silver, or magical artifacts.

Of Latin origin, Deprehensio means "detection", while Mutatio roughly translates to "alteration" or "transformation."

Beginning at the waist, guide the wand in an upward circular spiral until the tip has ascended over the casters head.

If performed correctly, any and all transfigured objects in the vicinity will begin to glow an opalescent silver for a short duration.
