Enchantment
Enchantment is a school of magic. Its spells bestow magic upon people, places, and/or things.
Compared to the school of Alteration, Enchantment's effects are far less harsh and far more magical. Compared to the school of Thaumaturgy, spells in Enchantment work magic on more of a surface level. For example, when one uses a Thaumaturgy to unwind an Undead being, they do it by manipulating the magic holding them together; meanwhile, when one uses an Enchantment to destroy a Magic Being, they do so by creating opposing magic and laying it upon them for an antimatter-like effect.
Enchantment also contains several "summoning" spells, taking stuff that already exists and making it move. It's one of the big three schools (alongside Conjuration and Alteration), in terms of how many spells one can get from it.
A lot of these spells work Underwater; thus, spells that aren't usable underwater will be noted.
