Stupefex Omnis
Spell Name: All-Stunner
Incantation: Stupefex Omnis
Pronunciation: STOO-peh-fex AHM-neece
Spell Branch: Charms
Magical Discipline(s):
Appearance: A silver streak of light flies in a quick circle around the caster. Once it has completed a full circuit, a second flash of silver light bursts out in all directions.
Description: Stuns multiple people simultaneously. A very powerful or experienced caster can pick and choose targets from a group; a less experienced caster will indiscriminately Stun everyone within range of the spell. The Stun effect lasts briefly (about a minute), substantially less than a normal Stunner.
Regulations: Legal
Skill Level: Master
Etymology: From Latin stupefacio, “to stun”, and omnis, “all”
References:
- Used by Dumbledore to simultaneously stun Cornelius Fudge, Dolores Umbridge, John Dawlish, and Kingsley Shacklebolt (while avoiding Harry Potter, Minerva McGonagall, and Percy Weasley) in Order of the Phoenix.
- A spell tailored (although perhaps not for the first time ever) by a current group of Hogwarts students who call themselves The Nightshades.
Notes: Beginners are able to control [their shadows] separately while still being able to move but can do little else while Advanced casters can use their shadows as spies to hear/see things, at the expense of their actual bodies' ability to move.
