    Correct Answer
    A. A spell that causes minor discomfort to the intended victim, and is mostly meant for the amusement of the castor and the observers.
    Explanation
    A Jinx is a spell that causes minor discomfort to the intended victim and is mostly meant for the amusement of the caster and the observers. It does not inflict intense levels of pain or control, nor does it cause death. The connotation of ill will suggests that it is meant to cause moderate suffering, which is not the case with a Jinx.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The suppression of magic and magic shaming can have serious consequences, including physical injury and death. This is because individuals who possess magical abilities may face persecution and discrimination in societies where magic is viewed as dangerous or evil. This can lead to acts of violence or even death towards those who are perceived as practicing magic. Additionally, the suppression of magic can prevent individuals from fully understanding and harnessing their abilities, which can result in accidents or misuse of magic that may cause physical harm.
