Frango Frigus

Chapter 14
Frango Frigus





The final spell in this textbook before we begin potions, is Frango Frigus. The spell is a charm that is especially useful in potioneering, and, in ancient times, had been used as a means to acquire fresh water which at times was a scarce thing, but vital in every aspect. Both words are Latin, the word Frango has the meaning "shatter" while Frigus is "cold, or coldness."

The spell, frango frigus, allows frozen water to shatter, but when it does, it doesn't act as an explosion. It's such a subtle change, you can barely even hear it, but it will cause frozen solid chunks of ice to break into a million, almost shaven pieces of ice, and it would rapidly increase the meltdown rate of the water without losing any substance through evaporation or giving away your location as other spells might.


The correct wand movements include a steady and firm hand, begin by pointing at the target and then flick the tip of the wand upward towards the sky, and then quickly revert the wand back to its prior position pointed at the target. The target must be within sight to perform correctly.
