Magic in Etius isn't a concept of matter.


It's a concept of phenomena.


Whether you're shooting fire, hurling ice spears, or erecting earthen walls, none of it can continue to exist in reality.


Once the caster cancels the spell or runs out of mana, it all disappears

Not even a copy.


"I need to change my thinking. Trying to create something out of thin air was wrong from the start. It's impossible. I can't create a shield."


What I need isn't matter.


It's phenomena.


Just like when a mage conjures fire, they're creating the "phenomenon of burning."


With a sword, it's the "phenomenon of cutting."


With a shield, it's the "phenomenon of blocking."

What kind of ability would this be? The mc has the ability to "Weave" things into existence, but he can't create actual things, only the phenomenon of it. Ie, if he wants to throw a knife, he has to create the phenomenon of a throwing knife, if he wants to block, he has to create the phenomenon of blocking.

Magic, and what I believe would be limited either Concept Manipulation or maybe Causality Manipulation? Since he is, in other words creating an effect without its usual cause. But idk.

I think it's both limited concept (probably type 3) and causality manip? Altho it's pretty bad, but considering it's creating a phenomenon (which idk how to classify but considering how it was described and the whole magic thing, I think it's a concept) and just making the effect without the actual cause, I think it would be causality manip too.

If a guy’s “reflection” proceeded to attack him and walk out of the mirror they came from, what ability would that be?

is the reflection of mirror or a world inside a mirror has been a thing in the series at least once?

the phenomena is definitely a concept but he is just manifesting it.
I'd say it is more so Reality warping at this point and just describe the ability and how it works

How would you index the ability to re-attach severed limbs? Would that even qualify as a type of immortality or regeneration?

Regeneration and maybe Body Control
