A flying broom usually takes the appearance of straw brooms which design and gimmicks (if any) vary between one and another depending on the way they crafted, used materials, and the owner's own preference.

The broom works by harnessing [[Magical Energy|magic energy]] which flows to the straw end from its [[Magic Battery|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 limited amount of power, coupled with the broom's own use that consistently consumes its energy reserves, it's impossible to fly a flying broom for long periods of time outside the range of effect of a [[Sorcerer's Stone]]. Although this no longer an issue following the revival of the cosmic tree [[Yggdrasil]], the attempts to mitigate this weakness has been made.

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

Appearance and Traits

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 crafted, 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 no longer an issue following the revival of the cosmic tree Yggdrasil, various attempts to mitigate this weakness have been made.

Custom-made magic brooms such as Shooting Star and Proto-Stinger are crafted with powerful enchantments which includes endowing them 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 is capable to perform such 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 Chamber of Time game, the resulted replica turned out to be pale in comparison of 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 which allow it to fly without need of magic energy emanated by a Sorcerer's Stone, a feat which 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.
