magic powers theme

A character is able to do at will some fantastical things that involves speculative supernatural forces that can be described as "magic".

Notes

This theme applies when a character uses spells, incantation, and other classically magic invocations. Unlike, for example, telekinesis it is clear that the world is manipulated first through the manipulation of some "magical" force or principle. In essence, the character is not directly manipulating real things (as we know them) but manipulates magic. Thus this becomes a category apart from other "speculative ability" themes.
