Magic was a powerful energy or force in the world of Narnia and some others worlds used to override the laws of nature that existed. Those who possessed magical ability had the potential to control, manipulate, twist, turn, bend, warp, shape, impact, direct, or otherwise influence reality to fit one's goals or ends, to help or hinder, to protect or to harm or kill. A rare few possessed an innate affinity for magic, for example, the star people. The properties, origins, and general understandings of magic, however, remain unknown or uncertain. Human]s do not have any inborn magical talent or connection, though they, along with any sentient being, could become involved in a magical event or could conduct someone else's magical ability by extension. The self-proclaimed human "magician" Andrew Ketterley clumsily experimented with magic in a foolish manner on Earth. True magicians tended to be stars, nymphs, gods, demons and witches, who could invoke magical rituals of their kind, good or evil (in magical terms, often referred to as light or dark, respectively). Magicians could conjure power and cast spells that would alter the flow of nature's reality. It is unconfirmed but a strong possibility that Aslan may be the higher entity who regulated the flow of magical elements in Narnia. To those from Earth, any of Aslan's divine abilities were often perceived as magical.
