A procedure for producing specific magical effects.

Spellcasting is the power to use magic through words, sometimes in rhymes or Latin but also possible in other languages. It is a basic power of magical creatures though few actually develop it deeply.
Spells can cause many effects, both harmful and helpful. The languages of spells vary and can be in English, Latin, a mixture of English and Latino and any other kind of language such as Portuguese. [citation needed] Other spells are merely the mixture of ingredients to increase the magical potential but can cause the same effects of spoken spells.

Wand Spells[]
Commonly used by Wizards, wand spells are spoken spells through a mixture of english and latin. Users can perform a variety of magical acts by using a wand.

So far the Wand Spells can sent blasts of energy, create hands of magical energy, teleportation, and conjuring minions from thin air to fight in the name of the Wizard.
Ritual Spells[]
Ritual Spells are spells of complex nature that sometimes need decorative tools and specific symbols. The only ritual performed was the Resurrection Spell cast by Chang to bring back the Dark Dragon. This spell needed a circle of rocks put around a bonfire and demanded few ingredients. One of the key ingredients is the Chi of the American Dragon.
