The Inflatus Jinx (Inflatus) is a jinx used to increase the size of the targeted creature, by inflating it; once inflated beyond the maximum capacity of its outer size, the targeted creature will explode into colourful party balloons.

Etymology

The prefix 'Inflate' derives from the English verb "to expand with oxygen".
