Magic is one of the most common types of supernatural abilities, that people can possess. It was used for numerous purposes.

## Mechanics and Laws

### Additional Abilities

Like all of the sources of supernatural abilities, magic grants the user supernatural abilities, with certain limitations. It is also made from supernatural aura, which is made from magical stones. Celestial magic or dragons as well as weapons and spirit Diamonds were ten times stronger than the normal magic. Users could also create artificial bodies, and manipulate sounds, and create or form it.

Users also had an impressive skill in combat, and immunity to poison. Users could also summon birds, create, form, and manipulate them. They could also communicate telepathically with others. However, these were only supporting abilities magical users could possess.

Similarly, magic relied on certain body parts, which would immediately make the magic of the user deactivate when the certain body part was unable to function properly. Thus, these body parts are usually hardened to a massive level. People, who were born with magic would usually obtain it at the age of seven, although there were rarer cases of people obtaining magic at a later age.

It may also cause extreme drainage to the user's body. The irises and pupils of the user define which magic type they use, and it grants them a massive enhancement to their abilities, as well as hardened body parts. It was believed that for some cases that those with insect-like eyes, had the weakest type of magic. However, the usage and strength of the magic heavily depended on the user's strength. It also grants the user an enhanced physiology, to enhance their magic use.

The magical power of a user could also get stronger, if the user cancels all of their instincts, and emotions or if the user coud control their emotions. This was due to the fact that if a person obtains magical abilities, through any certain method, the magic was somehow connected to their emotions, and heart because of the fact that it modifies the user's body parts, and increases their strength gradually. If the user's emotions are taking full control of them, the magical ability becomes weaker. Thus, users would need to control their emotions, and remain calm in any situation where they use it. Similarly, it increases the combat skills of a user, and can be classified onto different categories and types.

### Moon Phase

When magic is granted on a new moon, the magic is quite weak. However, when magic is granted on a day with a full moon, this automatically means that the user’s magic is extremely strong. It does have limits, which depends on what type of magic it is. More use of magic was painful, and sometimes, the users can become other creatures. Becoming a member and an inhabitant of the Clocktowers or Fortresses would mean that one would start serving Ubume and the Tokeitou Shidou. Some rituals include selling the soul of the user, and it also twists their mindsets. More powerful magic means less of a free will, unless you are able to control it. Magic can be based on a person’s interests, personality, or rather an occupation. Magical abilities are not limited, and grant abilities which have the same concept or theme. All of the magical abilities for a user have only have about four themes, and some magical abilities may be quite complex.

A person could also have a higher chance of a stronger magic of being granted in a night of a full moon, though users could be granted the abilities of a user. These magical abilities could not bring back the dead, and it is unable to grant any love or grant the wishes of a user. However, the magic would help the user achieve their goals, depending on the usage. Higher magic users could also cast something known as spells, which could do something depending on the spells and ability one could cast. To cast magical spells, users would need to say the spell's name inside their head. Curses are evil spells, which could inflict harm and pain on others.

## Supernatural Art Melody

The Supernatural Art Melodies was one of the most known techniques and spells of magic, and it was a technique that needed training to use it. They were songs, which casted spells, and manifested different supernatural effects, through the use of singing and the user's voice, or playing an instrument. It relied on rhythm, and singing, to conjure a supernatural effect on the environment of the user, or the user itself. The Supernatural Art Melody could also cast spells, when a certain song was sung. There were many different songs, or Supernatural Art Melodies, which casted different spells.

However, the user would need to know the whole song, and play the correct rhythmic patterns, and sometimes, the lyrics, to conjure the correct effect the melody casts. The melody of a certain art song could be written on scrolls, and the amount of scrolls containing the musical notes, and melody, and sometimes lyrics or words needed to cast it was based on how rare the melody was.

The Eternal Healing Art Melody is one of the rarest ever, with many struggling to find it. The casters who sung the spell could also manifest, form, and manipulate their surroundings, as if it were a piece of art, and conjure new things. Thus, they could control their environment, and those who learned this technique was capable of creating powerful soundwaves, and sound vibrations, paralyzing opponents to an extreme extent, and making their ears bleed.

### Lyrics

The lyrics of a spell song could also be taught to magical students through mentors, and the lyrics of the spell songs could also be written on scrolls. Although it was barely even used in combat, users who memorized the song would no longer require to sing it out loud, as they can just whisper and sing the melody with the opponent and anyone barely hearing.

However, to use this melody technique, one should have practice and training, and must control their emotions. When they are unable to control their emotions, it can cause more drainage, and weakening in the user. Only more powerful melodies contained lyrics. It also depends on the user's voice, and the requirements of the sound for the rhythm or the melody, needed to cast the spell.

## Types of Magic

There were several known elements of magical power. There were eleven main elements of magic, in total, which include operation, earth, water, thunder, wind or air, blood, fire, ice, melody, sound, and eventually shapeshifting. However, the rarest element of magic was shapeshifting as it was considered extremely powerful, due to being able to combine the physiology of the user with anything they desire.

The Shapeshifting Magic, was a part of the abilities the Combine Technique granted, although the Combine Technique was one of the rarest supernatural techniques. Wind Magic, soon became rare, due to the massacres of the **Adonnes Clan**, thus killing a massive amount of users of the Wind Magic.

## Obtaining

Magic is a very common type of power and one of the most common supernatural types of abilities. The magic can be obtained by finding a very common magic pendant, being given to the person by a Magic Holder, or you can be born with the magical powers. However, abusing magic can come at the cost of killing humans, and it can severely injure abusive users. It can also be obtained through jewels, or training.

These magic types could also be obtained through getting a dragon, spirit Diamonds, and weapons. The ability depends on the type of dragon, weapon, or spirit Diamonds. Powerful and immensely strong celestial magic or supernatural abilities could also be granted through painful and suffocating experiments through the one who wishes to obtain it. It is not that difficult to obtain magical abilities, however, it is impossible for the user to choose their magical abilities.p

They also possess an extremely modified and enhanced type of the additional abilities, alongside their extremely powerful and immensely strong magical abilities. They also had immensely strong skills, and capabilities, and their magical prowess will likely get stronger with more experience. However, it comes with the cost of the person's sanity, decreasing each day, and they could also be unable to feel any emotions. It also becomes more corrupted, when filled with negative emotions, and thus, the users should control their own emotions.

## Restrictions

It was proven that if negativity controlled the users, the user's magic would be turned into corrupted magic, and their soul will be corrupted with a great amount. Mere distraction can make the magical abilities granted to a user severely weakened, as users needed to cancel all instincts, and have an indomitable will, to use it. Thus, users must resist all types of distractions in combat, and fully focus.

When the user is unable to control their magic, they slowly become unhinged and insane. The unhinged and insane users are vulnerable to losing their identity, soon becoming known as "Figures".

The body part, which they used, would also be severely drained temporarily, depending on the amount of strength and power the user used. It was also known for magic to be very dangerous, as grim reapers would collect souls of its users. Performing magical rituals was dangerous as well, as it came for a price, which the price was too sacred. While it can be activated at any time depending on the ability, the magical abilities were based on the moon’s phases. For a person to truly hone their magical skills and abilities, the users needed intense training. More magic would mean more drainage of the user.

If a user has a corrupted soul, and is unable to control their magic, as it is too powerful, their mindset is fully corrupted, and their humanity is no longer there. Specific potions can create magical abilities and grant it to the user. Users can also lose sanity. Most magic can only fit into two categories, and different magic are granted by different blood types. However, human experimentation defies the rule of blood types, as it grants the user new blood, whichbcould work with their magic.

## Trivia

Magic is said by Mirai Ayano to be one of the more complex forms of Numen Energy, although it isn't as complex as Numen Energy itself.
