Feature Overview
Spells
Spells are cast by first speaking the spell incantation in normal chat with a wand in your hand. This is the in-canon incantation, so your Harry Potter fanaticism can finally be rewarded. You do not have to be taught the spell or have read a spellbook with the incantation in it to cast the spell. After speaking the incantation, left clicking with the wand still in your hand will cast the spell, which takes the form of a rapidly moving ball of particle effects. Hitting living entities requires aiming for their eyes.
Note: During this beta testing, all of the currently implemented spells can be found in the DEBUG book given by the /Okit command.
The more times you have cast a spell, the more powerful it will become. If you have over 100 casts of a spell, then the spell is saved in your memory for nonverbal casting. Simply left click again and you can cast the spell as many times as you want. You can scroll forward through the spells you have mastered nonverbally by right clicking with the wand in your hand. Sneak and right click to scroll backwards.
Also possible is wandless spellcasting, although its results are fickle at best. By speaking a spell incantation and left clicking, you have a small chance to cast the spell you desire. This chance scales up with your previous successful uses of the spell. Even when you successfully cast the spell, your wandless casting will render the spell with 1/10 it's normal power.
Wandlore
The creation of wands is a highly guarded secret, the information on which is stored in a book given to server ops with the /Okit command. There are 16 different types of wands using 4 woods and 4 cores. Each player has a destined wand type. You can see if a wand is your destined type by right clicking while holding it. If it is your destined type, then you will hear the level-up sound and a particle effect will play. Casting spells using a wand not of your destined type will half the effectiveness of the spell.
The first time you cast a spell with a wand, the wand will ally itself to you. This can only be changed by losing your wand to a disarming spell.
Spell Books
By writing down the incantation of a spell in a book and signing it, your experience with that spell can be passed down to others. Your current uses of the spell are saved with the book, and anyone who reads it will get a boost of their uses of the spell by half the difference between the amount in the book and their current amount.
Through the /kit command, a server op has access to many pre-written spell books included in this plugin. These spell books explain the effects and usage of the various spells. Every spell in the plugin is mentioned in these books, and a small amount of experience with the spells is gained by reading the book.
You do not need to be taught a spell or have read a book with an incantation in it to use that incantation. Reading a book just helps give you a little more experience with the spell.
Note: During this beta testing, the experience gained from the DEBUG book is 200 castings. All other books given by Okit give 20.
Cat Post
Like the owl post in the Harry Potter series, cats can now be used in minecraft to send an item to another player. In order to utilize this, your recipient must be online and in the same world as you. Find a tamed cat and lay an item at it’s feet, within 2 meters. Then, while standing no further than 10 meters away, say “deliver to PlayerName”, where PlayerName is replaced with the recipient’s name, which is case sensitive. If the delivery was successful, you will hear a meow and the cat will disappear. If the delivery was unsuccessful for any reason, the cat will hiss.
Configuration
The config.yml has a node called zones. With this you can define where certain spells can and cannot be cast. In the default config.yml, this plugin will be active on all worlds. Check the configuration page to find out more on how the configuration works.
Command
/Okit - This command is only runnable by server ops. This gives the kit of all possible types of wands, all pre-written spellbooks, and the Deathly Hallows. Optionally this command can have one or two arguments. The first argument can either be "wands" or "books". This will give you only the wands in the plugin or only the books in the plugin. The second argument can be an integer, specifying how many copies of the wands or books you want. "/Okit wands" will give you only the wands in the plugin. "/Okit books 10" will give you 10 copies of each book in the plugin. See the command page for how to use it in detail.
Horcruxes
Using a horrific incantation, you can create a horcrux. Normally, upon death, all of your spell experience is wiped out. However, the creation of a horcrux will teleport you to that location on your death, with your spell experience still intact. However, with every horcrux you create, your maximum health is halved. The details on this spell can be found in the book "Secrets of the Darkest Art".
Divination
Players can divine the future through peering into a crystal ball. By default, peering into a glass block while sneaking for an extended period of time will reveal a prophecy to you. Prophecies will detail long term effects that will happen to you at a specified time in the future for a specified duration. You have a chance to get any potion effect as a prophecy, but remember that only 60% of the potion effects are positive in nature. More details can be found in the book "Unfogging the Future".
Deathly Hallows
- The Elder Wand is distinguished by being a blaze rod instead of a stick, with a core of Ender Pearl. If the Elder Wand is allied to you, any spell you cast with it will be twice as strong. If it is not allied to you, then spells cast with it will be as strong as if they were cast using a wand of your destined type allied to you.
- The Cloak of Invisibility is a chainmail chestplate with the lore "Silvery Transparent Cloak". Wearing this cloak will hide you from all other players. It will also prevent mobs from targeting you, however, mobs that have already targeted you will continue chasing you until you hit them with something.
Chat Dropoff
This plugin uses a chat dropoff system to prevent console spam from people practicing their spellcasting. Any players within 50 meters of you will hear you casting spells, but players further away than that won't receive the chat message. This does not affect normal non-incantation speech.
Permissions
Each spell has a permissions node called Ollivanders.SPELL_NAME and this permission node can be set to false to disable use of that spell. By default, if the permissions node does not exist, players can use the spell.
Planned Features
- Full integration of all 170+ known incantations in Harry Potter

Stats
This plugin utilizes Hidendra's plugin metrics system, which means that the following information is collected and sent to mcstats.org:
- A unique identifier
- The server's version of Java
- Whether the server is in offline or online mode
- The plugin's version
- The server's version
- The OS version/name and architecture
- The core count for the CPU
- The number of players online
- The Metrics version
You can disable the stat collection via /plugins/PluginMetrics/config.yml if you wish.
Updater
As of version 0.11 this plugin comes with an updater that will automatically update it to the newest version on restart. The updater can be disabled in the Ollivanders config by setting "update" to false.
@simcool2
At this exact time, you can't remove spells. If you want to play with one spell the best way would be to turn spell loss on death on and die. Otherwise if you are worried about not being able to do one non-verbal spell, you can say the spell in chat, cast it, and then just keep casting it non-stop without changing the spell.
As a side note, don't open up bin/dat files, it can corrupt them and you will lose all your data, and it's not possible to really read those and editing them will destroy the data.
@iarepande
i want to know because when i use the debug book, theirs so many spells it takes time to choose a specific spell. so i want to be able to remove a nonverbal spell.
@simcool2
Why would you do that why don't you just make a book, title it Spell Journal, and look at all your spells ???
just wondering, is there a file that shows all a player's nonverbal spells? (player.dat file?)
@simcool2
You can't, it's hardcoded into the plugin. It's based off your uuid.
how do you change your destined wand? which file?
@cookieeater45
Pretty sure he is waiting for the 1.8 builds to come out before he updates from what I understand.
Any news on a upcoming update? (just curious)
@iarepande
It actually appears the problem is that the floo network doesnt works across different worlds. The developer is already aware of this issue.
Edit: IDK why I just responded with this, obviously you already know that.
@nullschritt
Spigot is just bukkit, but with better performance, there is not much difference. Any problems you have with the floo would be entirely either in a messed up config (but you aren't receiving error codes so most likely not) or because of plugin interaction. Could you message me a list of plugins please? It might also be another problem, so if you would like me to check it personally send me the ip.
EDIT: in fact I rather double check you are doing the steps correctly, because the floo can be a little difficult the first time, and it might not be plugin related at all.
Floo network not working for me with 1.7.9 spigot(everything works up to the actual teleportation, my guy just stands there and doesnt teleport). Am I going to have to find a craftbukkit build somewhere, or is this bug also present in craftbukkit?
If it works properly could I get a build number?
@Sheczar
Well for 1, you need to redownload 15 and turn off update because you aren't running version .15 you are running .16 : for Ollivanders v0.16 generated
You turn update off in the config generated by the plugin after running it for the first time.
for two, if you still have problems send me a message with a long version of the error log.
Hello, I have a problem will you be able to help?
My server is 1.7.2 and I have Ollivanders v0.15 installed but I keep getting the following error as a spam every second (or milisecond)
18:40:12 CONSOLE: WARN]: [Ollivanders] Task #11 for Ollivanders v0.16 generated an exception
Thanks.
@boygreen2
did you see my message yesterday?
@boygreen2 can you send me a longer copy of the error code?
Every time I run the Plugin, it works fine until someone joins the server. As soon as a player joins, the console is flooded with this 3:16:46 PM [WARNING] [Ollivanders] Task #9 for Ollivanders v0.16 generated an exception 3:16:46 PM at net.minecraft.server.v1_7_R1.ThreadServerApplication.run(SourceFile:617) [craftbukkit-1.7.2-R0.4-20140316.221310-4.jar:git-Bukkit-1.7.2-R0.3-2-g85f5776-b3024jnks]
@iarepande
Okay then, i'll send it now.
There's not really anything to figure out? I already had a pair i wanted to know if i could make more without it glitching or something
@TempusVulpi
Okay well just send it in a message or if you really can't do either make a ticket, did you figure out the vanishing cabinets?
@iarepande
I don't know how to do what he did... So that's not very helpful.
@TempusVulpi
Do the same thing aiden_5 did with his error log below. And yes you can make more than one set. If you message me the ip for your server I can show you in person if you don't understand the directions.
