|appearance=Used with a candle (usually black).  The candle will ignite.  A steady flame indicates a strong ward, a flickering flame a weak or weakening ward.  Wandless magic.
|description=A shielding spell that maintains a semipermanent magical shield around the caster, similar to Protego, although it absorbs (instead of reflecting) most curses.  The advantage is that, being wandless, it allows a well-trained caster to use his wand simultaneously to cast other spells.  The caster can feel the strength of the ward.
