Kapitel 16: Chapter 16
Well, I have gone through my entire library, not counting all of those stupid novels that really have no place being in a magical library, and I have yet to find spells that will help me with my number one issue. The one aspect that I need to be a part of this spell is applying it from a distance. I then need to conjure an assortment of clothes which will then move to dress the target, which means this spell needs both transfiguration and charm work.
Right now, the closest spell I have that fits those parameters is the Incarcerous spell which conjured a rope out of thin air which then moves to wrap around the target, similar to what I want, except I need clothes to be invoked, and they need to dress the target, not wrap around them.
Now, I could leave the house and go to a bookstore and possibly find the spell I need. But I really can't think why there would have been a need for this spell to be created in the past. Maybe if they had a captive like I do, but then again, they probably didn't care about how they were dressed, what with them being prisoners. So do I risk leaving my abode to search for a book that probably doesn't exist and chance running into people I am not prepared to meet, like Digby?
I would much rather stay here and try my hand at spell creation and make the spell myself than go out there and risk myself before I am ready. I need to know all of the magic taught in the Hogwarts textbooks and be skilled at them before I can do so. And it isn't like I am going to be creating a new spell. As far as I can see, all I need to do is create a variation of the Incarcerous spell or, at the very least, use that spell as a base and build up off of it, which shouldn't be too hard.
I know the Incarcerous spell reasonably well. Gilderoy actually spent a lot of effort with this one and learned all that he could about it, not for its offensive capabilities but because it aided him in his other goals. He knew in-depth about this spell and made many variations of it for a straightforward reason, his sex drive. He figured out a way to cast the Incarcerous spell in a few different ways, precisely how the rope wrapped around the target.
He knew the ball tie position, where a person is bound into a ball position with their knees against their shoulders, and the hogtie, where all four limbs are tied behind the back at the wrists and ankles. Next, the wrists and elbows are strapped to the ankles and knees with the crab tie. The shrimp tie where the ankles are tied together to the neck and the hands are tied behind the back.
For the reverse shrimp tie, the ankles are tied together behind the back and attached to the neck. In the rope harness, it is wrapped in a restrictive fashion in a webbed pattern around the body which doesn't actually bind and is more for applying pressure on specific points.
And then there is, of course, the crotch rope, the frog tie, the box tie, breast bondage, the captive tie for roleplay, shouldering the rifle, reverse prayer and finally, Gilderoy's favourite one. Strappado, where a person's arms are bound behind their back, then by use of some attachment method such as a rope or chain that runs from their wrists to a securing point above, their arms are lifted behind them until the person is forced to bend forward and th-
Too much information, way too much information. I did keep all of Gilderoy's memories and knowledge after all, and, well, he likes some bondage when it comes to his sexy time. He was a bit of a kinky guy. So now I have all sorts of sordid, dirty information knocking around my head, but it is at least helpful, some of it.
Suffice to say, I am quite possibly the most knowledgable wizard about the Incarcerous spell, except perhaps its creator, who is undoubtedly dead by now, having created this spell centuries ago, so I am the foremost authority, I assume.
So that is the base of the spell taken care of, and Gilderoy was advanced enough with the magic to perform a variety of different complicated bondages. So when I transfigure the clothes, I should be able to easily make them dress the target of the spell. In comparison, all those knots and ties were much more complicated.
So now I just need to work on transfiguring the clothes, and when I do so, I need to make sure that they fit the target correctly or at least they are not too small, which should be pretty easy since I already have the knowledge needed.
If there was one aspect of magic that Gilderoy took seriously and applied his all to, it was magic that involved the appearance and image, of which clothing was a part. So, using my plethora of vain magic, I would be able to turn even a bum into a handsome gentleman, within reason, of course.
I can turn a one into a five and a four into a seven, but only for a while, not all magic is permanent, and I am not a miracle worker. So basically, what I am saying is that I know a variety of these kinds of spells.
So, it shouldn't take me too long to get this down pat and get to the actual learning, that black book.
------------------------------------
Oh my god, I could not have been more wrong, it was easy for me to make this spell, and I was making it more complicated than it needed to be. First, I tried multiple ways, from transfiguring the clothes and then sending them onto my test dummy, which required too much fine control. It is much easier to wrap something than to fit things into their slots. Next, I tried transferring the clothes on the target directly instead of making it and then dressing the mark. Let's just say this method got a little messy.
But the essence of that method was correct, so I took it a step further and transfigured big clothes over the target. Then I shrunk the clothes onto the dummy with the shrinking charm, the incantation being Reducio. Well, the problem with this is that it was hard to stop the magic at the correct time. It either stayed too big or shrunk and ripped apart. So I tried many more methods, but none worked.
My mistake was trying to actually make a proper spell with none of the training or knowledge about spell creation that is so obviously needed to spell create. As a result, I overestimated myself, and truthfully I was overtaxing myself for no reason.
However, the solution was much more straightforward than I imagined, all that needed to be done was to change the transfiguration from a rope to fabric, and then that was it. Then, just wrap that fabric around the target so tightly that he is basically wearing clothes, though they look like a mummy.
For some reason, I was trying to make a full-fledged spell, and it irked me something fierce to settle for a crappy shortcut. I don't even know why. Maybe it is because Gilderoy used shortcuts all the time. I guess I might have an aversion to it, but I have to acknowledge that it works, and I can't waste more time on that piece of shit.
So I figured out my hack and went into the room. Again, I gave the man a vanishing spell, clearly envisioning what I wanted. Otherwise, I might end up vanishing him, if that is even possible. With that done, I just cast my spell variation.
"Vestio." I conjured a long grey cotton cloth that then shot forward and began to wrap itself around Digworth, even covering the chair legs. So I was left with a fat grey lumpy chair with Digby's head popping out of the top.
With that taken care of, I now had my method to keep him maintained, use an Evanesco to completely vanish everything, including all the filth on him and the cast Vestio to wrap him in new cloth. Now I just need to feed him.
There is also the matter of him needing the toilet, which will inevitably come after he is fed, to which I say let him stew in his own filth. It will all be cleaned up with a vanishing spell. Learning that spell will save me a lot of time. It is handy and will deal with all the hygiene problems I come across in the future.
I came up with a simple position to deal with the food issue. Since he is in a fixed position with only his head free to move, I transfigured a stone table that reaches right up to his head, and then I made two grooves in it, one to place water in and one to put food in.
But, of course, I don't want to give him anything that he could use, including cutlery and plates. He has enough mobility to bend his neck down to lap up the water and eat the food, it is inhumane, but Digby is inhuman. This is more than he deserves.
Honestly, I have been wasting a lot of my time on this stupid stuff, but now that my test subject is ready and in place to be maintained, I can get started with my experimentation. I can get to actually learning real magic, and I can begin to learn from the black book because that is part of my plan for when I leave this place. After all, Gilderoy was bad at covering up his tracks, and now that this is my life, I will have to take care of loose ends.
