The Sleeping Charm (incantation unknown) was a charm which placed those subjected to it into a magically induced slumber that would eventually wear off.[1]

History[]

During the summer holidays leading up to the 1989–1990 school year, then Care of Magical Creatures teacher, Silvanus Kettleburn encountered a Ukrainian Ironbelly while "tramping across the Carpathians", during which he was able to save his remaining arm by the timely casting of a Sleeping Charm before the dragon could bite down.[1]

Later that year, Jacob's sibling would successfully use this charm to subdue a Hungarian Horntail in a cave at the Romanian Dragon Sanctuary while they assisted their Curse-Breaker, unofficial instructor, friend and former peer Bill Weasley in an assignment centred around the recovery of Urgruff's egg; a lost goblin treasure, on the orders of Gringotts Wizarding Bank.[1]

During the 1990–1991 school year, Olivia Green had to use this spell to subdue Tim the Wampus cat in the Clock Tower Courtyard, after he had been recklessly set loose there by members of the Circle of Khanna.[2]
