Efforts to characterize magic in Felarya are often difficult, due to the fact that many people from a variety of worlds have their own ways of drawing upon this force. What is certain, however, is that Felarya is extremely magic-rich, allowing powerful spells to be cast and summoned beings to remain indefinitely.

Mages arriving for the first time in Felarya can experience a serious shock at how little efforts it takes from their parts to tap into it and cast spells. Even technologically advanced groups such as Vishmitals can't ignore magic. They have to compose with it, study it, and sometimes even harness it.
