Usage:	Fly with Flight Magic
Owner:	Witches

Magic Brooms, also known as Flying Brooms, are special brooms employed for the use of Flight Magic and are part of the basic equipment of witches and their male counterparts wizards.

Description

A magic broom usually takes the appearance of straw brooms in which design and gimmicks (if any) vary between one and another depending on the way they are crafted, the used materials, and the owner's own preference. Yet they all share the same basic function: Allowing the user to move from one place to another through the air as a means of transportation. The broom works by harnessing magic energy which flows to the straw end from its battery, emanating enough force for it to fly and levitate at the user's will via. Flight Magic. Said battery is usually placed within a slot located on the front end of the broom, and due to it can only hold a limited amount of power, coupled with the broom's own use that consistently consumes its energy reserves, it's impossible to fly a magic broom for long periods of time outside the range of effect of a Sorcerer's Stone. Although this is no longer an issue following the revival of the cosmic tree Yggdrasil, various attempts have been made to mitigate this weakness.

Custom-made magic brooms such as Shooting Star and Proto-Stinger are crafted with powerful enchantments which include endowing them with self-sustaining magic energy reserves, allowing said brooms to fly without needing an external source of magic. Crafting such powerful brooms, however, requires great skills and experience, and not everyone can perform such a feat. When Constanze and Amanda attempted to craft a second Shooting Star with materials provided by Akko through Nelson's guidance during the events of the Chamber of Time game, the resulting replica turned out to pale in comparison to the original. Alternatively, a witch may modify her pre-existing broom by giving it alternate power sources as demonstrated by Constanze who installed gas-powered machinery on hers that allows it to fly without the need for magic energy emanated by a Sorcerer's Stone, a feat which is crucial for her and her friends' journey for Rastavan Ruins in Luna Nova and the White Dragon.

A regular broom can carry up to three people at a time, but this drastically reduces the speed of flight.

List of Brooms

1.	Shiny Balai	The broom form of Shiny Rod which accessible via. the Fifth Word of Seven Words of Arcturus. It possesses incredible speed, albeit not as fast as Shooting Star. It has a beige handle with a golden tip along seven orbs embedded within and three straw ends, giving it the ability to fly at supersonic speed (albeit not as fast as Shooting Star). The broom also possesses the ability to teleport and manifest a wand for the user in combat situations.
2.	Sucy's First Broom	A custom-made magic broom which is modeled after Walis Tambo, a soft broom commonly used in households in the Philippines. While possessing basic abilities of magic broom including flight via. Flight Magic, it's unknown whether it can fly with its own power. The broom was destroyed by a cockatrice's fiery blast during the chase at Arcturus Forest in "A New Beginning".
3.	Standard Broom	Mass-produced model of magic brooms which is mostly seen in the series. It takes the appearance of a simple straw broom with a punctured metal tip with a retractable slot in which a Magic Battery can be placed to power the broom.
4.	Three Wand Fusion Broom	A broom which is formed by magically combining three wands each with a Floating Brush attached on the tip. It takes the appearance of an ornate straw broom with an arrowhead-like front end. In the first short film, Diana formed this broom to chase a lone Briton Red Dragon she unwittingly released deep within the dungeon beneath New Moon Tower.
5.	Ursula's Broom	Ursula's Broom is a custom-made magic broom with a front end that has a crescent moon-like design, which presumably contains a magic battery within. She would use it until she sacrificed her ability to fly in order to protect Akko from Wagandea pollen in "Wagandea".
6.	Shooting Star	A legendary magic broom that can fly without needing an external source of magic and even without a witch pilot riding it. Due to its temperamental nature which makes it difficult to control, Shooting Star is eventually restrained and locked away at Last Wednesday Society. The broom is eventually stolen by Amanda in the events of "Don't Stop Me Now", but even she is unable to control it, leading it to be piloted by Akko before eventually flying away. Shooting Star later returned to assist Akko and Diana in destroying Noir Rod once and for all in "Tree of Leaves".
7.	Constanze's Mechanized Broom	“ Huh? Is that even a broom? ” —Wangari about Constanze's mechanized magic broom A standard broom which outfitted with an engine complete with propeller and rotor vanes and a bike-like handle to manually control it. Thanks to its mechanical modifications, the broom can be used to fly with no need for magic energy emanated by the Sorcerer's Stone.
8.	Proto-Stinger	Prototype version of Shooting Star with blue and silver color scheme instead of red and orange. While very fast and even shared a similar temper to its successor, the broom's overall speed is pale in comparison.
9.	Cavendish Family Broom	A variant of standard room exclusive to Cavendish family. It has a rounder straw end and the handle is encased in coiling snake-themed casing not unlike standard wands utilized by said family. Notable owners of this type of broom are Daryl, Maril, and Merrill.
10	Combined Broom	In a bid for Akko and Diana to reach Noir Rod which has assimilated a missile, the two, alongside Lotte, Sucy, Amanda, Constanze, and Jasminka, Ursula, and Croix constructed a multi-stage broom made of witch students' six brooms attached to one another like a multi-stage rocket outfitted with Noir Rod's two surviving Sorcery Solution Systems and then combined with Shiny Balai.
