Trans-Species Transformation[1] was a sub-branch of transformation magic in which one organism was transformed into something of a different species.
Nature[]
Trans-Species Transfiguration was one of the most difficult sub-branches of Transfiguration, with only Human Transfiguration noted to be a more difficult sub-branch.
It is possible that Cross-Species Switches were an example of Trans-Species Transformation, due to the similarity in their names. If this was so, then Transforming Spells must be adapted to perform Trans-Species Transformation.[2]
History[]
The periodical Transfiguration Today provided some information on this branch of magic, as Albus Dumbledore submitted a paper on it to the periodical.[1]
Examples[]
- First-year and second-year students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry learnt the Avifors Spell, in order to transform creatures and objects into birds.[3][4]
- Third-year students learnt the Lapifors Spell, which transformed creatures and objects into rabbits.[5]
- Fourth-year students transformed guinea fowl into guinea pigs.[6]
- Duellists transformed opponents into ducks, fish, chickens and worms frequently.[7]
