A Password Spell is a type of spell that can be used to unlock devices, such as cellular phones and computers, or reveal hidden compartments. The spells seem to work by either putting in the password for you or is the password itself.

Overview[]
The spell is used by sprinkling some sort of dust over the intended computer keyboard or cellular phone and speaking the incantation to make it put in the password on its own.
