Spells

In Witch Hat Atelier, magic is performed via drawn spells. Each spell has a different effect, decided by the signs and sigils it contains. Spells typically fall into one of five main groups - fire, water, earth, wind, and light - depending on which sigil it possesses.

Unfortunately, the designs of some glyphs have been somewhat inconsistent, so a few spells have different spell construction now than they did earlier on in the story. (This is especially prevalent in the first and second volumes). One example of this is how the earth breaker glyphs early on in the manga have a levitation keystone in place of an earth sigil. Due to this and similar cases, if a glyph has different forms at different points in the story, the newer version of that glyph will take precedence and become the official form of that glyph.

Each spell has its own page. If you would like to learn more about a specific spell, click on its name to be redirected to that spell's page.

Unknown Spells

Unknown spells are the spells that, for whatever reason, we don't know enough about to put in any category. Spells in this section typically don't have their glyph visible, are potentially forbidden, have glyphs that are incomplete or hard to make out, or simply do not fit well into other categories.

Beldaruit's Smoke Sculpture	Forbidden Flames	Pegasus Carriage Spell	Spike	Tracking Spell
Puppet Bag's Spell	Forbidden Glow

Forbidden Spells

Forbidden Spells are spells that were outlawed by the Pointed Hat Witches and are used by the Brimhats. Using them can result in getting your memory wiped by the Knights Moralis.
