Dweomer

In role-playing games, like Dungeons & Dragons, and in fantasy novels, a dweomer is the magical aura on an enchanted item. More broadly, it may refer to the aura of a spell having been cast whose duration remains active.

Gary Gygax encountered the word "dweomercræft" in Susan Kelz Sperling's book Poplollies & Bellibones: A Celebration of Lost Words (1977), where it is defined as "the art of magic or juggling". From this hint, Gygax inferred the meaning of the element "dweomer", and went on to use dweomer, dweomercræft, and derivative forms that he invented, such as dweomered, dweomercræfter, and dweomercræfting. The element "dweomer" was previously unattested in this form outside of compounds.

Thanks for posting these things! I love words and their etymologies; and as the author of Mr. Reynold's link attests, D&D is a great medium by which to learn them.
