'''Spell creation''' is the highly dangerous and mysterious art of creating new [[spell]]s.<ref>[[Luna Lovegood's mother]], as one of her spells went wrong and killed her. From Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (film & book) </ref> Only [[Wizardkind|witches and wizards]] with great understanding of [[magic]] are known to be able to invent and create spells.

Only [[Wizardkind|witches and wizards]] with great understanding of and skill in [[magic]] were known to be able to invent spells. It is unknown what the exact process was to creating spells other than crafting the [[wand]] movement and the [[incantation]]. What is known is that it was a very difficult, even dangerous process. If something went wrong, the results could prove [[Death|fatal]]; an example of this was [[Pandora Lovegood]]'s [[Pandora Lovegood's unknown spell|experimentation]].<ref name="OOTP38">{{OOTP|B|38}}</ref>
−
Not much is known about this form of magic. Most wizards and witches only know it is extremely dangerous and that a lot of people have suffered a great deal of injures and even death, hence few attempt it.

It seems centered very much around Latin. About 90% of all the spells are Latin in different forms; presumably, in order to create spells, it is very important to find the correct Latin pronunciation (as seen in [[Severus Snape's copy of Advanced Potion-Making|Snape's potion book]], wherein line after line had been crossed out, apparently as a result of trial-and-error.)

*It is possible that [[Gilderoy Lockhart]] was a spell inventor, as he seemed to make several spells ([[Deboning]], [[Peskipiksi Pesternomi]], etc.) up on the spot.

*It is possible that [[Antonin Dolohov]] invented his [[Antonin Dolohov's curse|signature curse]] as he is the only [[Death Eaters|Death Eater]] shown using it and demonstrated a certain sadistic pride when he successfully cast it against Hermione during the [[Battle of the Department of Mysteries]].<ref name="OOTP35">{{OOTP|B|35}}</ref>
  +
*[[Tom Riddle|Lord Voldemort]] likely invented some of the protective spells he used in the hiding places of his [[Horcrux]]es, such as the [[Gaunt Shack]] and the [[The Cave|Horcrux Cave]]. These spells were extremely [[Dark charm|dark]] in nature and extremely difficult for even [[Albus Dumbledore]] to penetrate sometimes requiring the aid of another [[Harry Potter|wizard]]. Similarly, Dumbledore needed the aid of another [[Severus Snape|wizard]] who was especially talented in healing and [[Thick golden potion|quarantining]] from injuries caused by one of Voldemort's [[Curse on Marvolo Gaunt's Ring|curses]].

*It is possible that [[Hermione Granger]] invented the [[Four-Point Spell]], as she particularly searched it for [[Harry Potter]] (who is the only person who used it) and the incantation is English.<ref name="GOF31">{{GOF|B|31}}</ref>

**It is also possible that she invented the [[Dumbledore's Army parchment jinx]], given the apparent lack of a [[counter-jinx]] or cure apart from the boils fading on their own, as well as being specifically stated to identify traitors from the army.<ref name="OOTP27">{{OOTP|B|27}}</ref>
