Animus
One of the two main types of magic.
Enchantment
A slight breeze happens and an object, person, or whatever else glows during the enchantment.
Animus users are able to enchant anything or anyone to do anything as long as they have the energy to make it through the process.
Enchantments can have whatever effect the caster desires, so long as it's very specific.
Takes energy to cast an enchantment, the more complicated it is, the more energy it takes. Can lead to coma or death.
Person's energy or overall "life-force," according to some scholars
Humans can only use Animus magic while dragons can use Animus and Bending magic. Animus can be applied to most objects and small creatures, but nothing larger than that. The enchantment possibilities are near-infinite, but they have to be very specific, either thought, written, or spoken. Anything on large objects, complicated creatures, or spells with multiple steps need a lot of energy to complete and can kill an inexperienced caster.
