Accio

The Summoning Charm ( spelled as Accio) summoned an item toward the caster. It was capable of summoning items in the caster's direct line of sight as well as those that were not visible, just by addressing the object loudly after the invocation (unless it was cast wordlessly). This spell required thinking, and the caster's mind must be clear on the thing before attempting to call it. Accio's polar opposite is the Banishing Charm.

Accio was not intended to be employed on structures. Additionally, it would not act on living creatures, but they may be influenced indirectly via the summoning of objects they were donning or carrying. It was dangerous to call them in this fashion, since they traveled extremely fast and may be wounded in the process. Only Flobberworms were known to be an exception to this rule, since they were typically deemed unworthy of summoning.

The greater the distance between the caster and the targeted item, the more difficult it was to conjure. Hermione Granger, on the other hand, remarked that it was irrelevant how far away the item was – as long as the mage had it firmly in mind, they ought to be able to conjure it without difficulty. Additionally, the overall position of the item must be known; otherwise, it cannot be summoned.
