The Unlocking spell is the counterspell to the defigo Locking Spell.

Unlike the alohomora Unlocking Charm, the effringo incantation may only be used to open a secured lock by the caster of the defigo spell or someone specifically designated by the original caster.

In rare circumstances, however, a person who disarms and takes the wand of the caster can lift the spell using the taken-wand.

EtymologyEdit

Effringo (Latin): "to break, break open"
