Hex

A hex is a spell whose effects vary greatly, especially based on morality and intention, though it seems that most of the time they are used to cause a form or harm or gain an advantage over a victim. For instance memory-altering spells or forgetful spells are used to alter memories or remove them completely so as to render a victim helpless or to keep themselves, someone else or something secret. Another form of hex are warning hexes, which alert its caster of intruders in the area it is cast on. Another, more ambigious hex, is the broom faster-than-jets autopilot hex, which especially creates confusion as to what constitues a "hex". Things or beings that a hex has been cast upon are referred to as having been "hexed".
