Magic

Magic describes either a supernatural gift or talent occurring both in the world of Midgard and on other known planets. It is presumably limited to the different Vanir species, but can occur in many different forms.

General Information

One of the most common forms of magic in Midgard is firstlight. Firstlight is raw, unfiltered magic that looks like undiluted light. It is emitted by a Vanir when they make the Drop. It is never a good idea to mix magic and drugs.
