Conjuration

Conjuration is a branch of Transfiguration in which an object or an animal is Transfigured from 'thin air'. Although some conjuration spells are simpler and are taught to younger students, most spells are N.E.W.T.-level and are taught to Sixth years and above at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. According to Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration, food cannot be conjured, however, life can.
