The Ebublio Jinx^[1] (Ebublio^[3]) was a jinx that entrapped the targeted individual, or indeed any target, in a very large bubble that could not be popped by physical force.^[3]

It appeared as a brilliant blue jet of light, and it was useful when fighting against aggressive Fire Dwelling Salamanders.^[1]

History

EbublioJinx — Harry Potter casting the jinx on a Salamander

This jinx was used heavily amongst volunteer members of the Statute of Secrecy Task Force during the Calamity in the 2010s. This spell was particularly useful when containing Gnomes, Fire-breathing chickens, Trolls and even other wizards in large bubbles of water, in the form of Confoundables which were guarding various Foundables throughout the wizarding world.^[2]

Known practitioners
