Page "Marvel Universe" Paragraph 29

* Magic also appears to be like a form of energy, except that it can defy the laws of physics naturally, and usually overrules ordinary science.

However, it does have rules of its own to follow, which vary with the method of invocation, usually in the form of spoken spells.

It appears to be present in everything, even living beings.

All humans in the Marvel Universe have the ability to use magic, but only if properly trained.

Most people are unaware that magic actually works.

In addition, powerful magical beings from other dimensions have created specific, extremely powerful magical spells that they allow to be used ( often indiscriminately ) by those sorcerers who invoke their names ; one example is the trinity of beings called The Vishanti, who serve as patrons to heroic sorcerers.

At any given time, there is a sorcerer on Earth whose task is to protect the universe against extradimensional mystical invaders ; this sorcerer is known as the Sorcerer Supreme, an office most recently left empty by the death of Brother Voodoo.

Stars in the Marvel Universe are actually sentient beings, and the source of all mystic energy.
