Magic
In Twisted Wonderland, magic is a natural physical phenomenon like gravity, that manifests as a type of ambient energy. This energy can be manipulated by mages, who are born with the ability to interact with magical energy at the cost of mana by using their imagination to visualize their spells. The stronger a mage's ability to visualize what they want to do the easier it is to cast spells. Visualization is so important in the use of magic that some mages will write or draw in order to train themselves to better visualize their magic.

Mana is an energy that is used to cast spells. The amount of mana any individual mage has is set from birth and cannot be increased or decreased, but they can make better use of their mana through training. If a mage runs through all their mana, they run the risk of death.

Magical energy can be used for other purposes besides spellcasting. Magic can be used to power technology. For example, Magical Wheels use the rider's magic as fuel. The Ignihyde dorm specializes in technology powered by magic. Some plants need magical energy to grow whereas other plants are capable of outputting their own magical energy.

Mages cannot use their magic from birth, they develop it later in life. There seems to be an age that is considered normal, as Sebek refers to developing his magic late whereas Riddle was seen as remarkable for developing his Unique Magic at 10 years old.

Magic carries some kind of scent that beastmen can detect.

Magic is used in many careers in Twisted Wonderland, including magical healers and a magical police force.

- Using magic without a pen/any magic gem is considered dangerous, especially if it’s your unique magic. This is mentioned in Vargas Camp. - Anyone can correct this, but magic and imagination are described more as having a directly proportional relationship than imagination ‘controlling’ magic. The stronger your imagination as to the result of the spell, the better your spell. The strength of one’s magic seems to be more on how much mana an individual has (I mean. Malleus for example, when he uses some of his magic, people thought he was overblotting (i.e. Cater in one of the Halloween personals) but he was just being angry)
