History Main / MadeOfMagic

* In ''DragonBall'', this is said to be the origin of Majin Buu, who was conjured into existence by an extremely powerful wizard named Bibidi.

* Spren in ''Literature/TheStormlightArchive''.

* WorldOfWarcraft has Anveena who is the human form of the Sunwell. The Sunwell is literally nothing BUT a mass of huge magical energy. It also serves as the key to allow Kil'jaeden and other Burning Legion nasties into the world, but Anveena was having none of this and killed herself to stop it all (the portal was already open at the time, her death would close it). After, an alien prophet used the spark of a dead EnergyBeing angel to 'revive' the Sunwell, but Anveena stayed 'dead'.

* The Living Programs (including Wolkenritter and Materials) in the ''LyricalNanoha'' series are constructs made out of magical energy. Also, the Unison Devices are probably thus, too.

* In ''ValkyrieProfile'' games, the Valkyrie employ souls of dead warrior re-materialized in the world with [[CallAHitPointASmeerp Divine Materialization Energy]]. So while in the world, they are made of Divine magic. [[spoiler:That this includes the Valkyrie is an important point in the game, beyond being able to heal her with things that heal materialized Einherjars.]]

* In ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'', all monsters are composed of magic, in contrast to humans being made mostly of water. [[spoiler:Because monsters are magical beings, they instantly turn to dust when they die and their souls are weak compared to a human's soul.]]

* Aku, the BigBad of SamuraiJack, is made of a piece of the elemental chaos of the universe. Also, Jack's sword is made of the goodness of his father.

* Everything in the magical world in ''Literature/DarkLordOfDerkholm'' contains magic in it to the point that people from another world were digging up dirt in that world and smuggling it into their magic-less world to do magic (and make a lot of cash).

* In ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'', [[spoiler: all monsters are composed of magic, which Alyph's research equates to humans that are mostly made up of water. Because monsters are magical beings, they instantly turn to dust when they die and their souls are weak compared to a human's soul.]]

* ''Everything'' (save for Planeswalkers) in ''MagicTheGathering''. According to Wizards' MagiBabble, every card you play are Mana-based magical copies of beings existing on the other side of Blind Eternity. (Prior to this {{Retcon}} they were the real thing, summoned and enslaved by your might. [[YouBastard Guess that made some players feel bad.]])

* Daemons in Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000 are composed of pure magic - the raw substance of Chaos itself.

Creatures that are MadeOfMagic may in fact be a PureMagicBeing, or an EnergyBeing, depending on whether the setting has more of a ScienceFiction or a {{Fantasy}} flavor. In a ScienceFantasy setting, the creature might be [[TakeAThirdOption both]].

Creatures that are MadeOfMagic may in fact be a PureMagicBeing, or an EnergyBeing, depending on whether the setting has more of a ScienceFiction or a {{Fantasy}} flavor. In a ScienceFantasy setting, the creature might be [[TakeAThirdOption both]]. They may be an ImplacableMan.

They are most likely ''very'' dependant on {{mana}} to exist. If the setting is chockful, no problem. If not....

* In the 1998 ''Film/{{Merlin}}'' TV miniseries, a wide variety of creatures including [[spoiler:Queen Mab]] are this. And, in that setting, magic is definitely ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve...
* In the 2009 ''Series/{{Merlin}}'' series, [[spoiler:Merlin himself]] qualifies. Of course, since this is not a setting where GodsNeedPrayerBadly, he'll be immortal until the second age of KingArthur.

* The Servants (Heroic Spirits) in ''FateStayNight'' and ''FateZero'' are made of Mana, and will disappear when their Master can no longer channel Mana into them [[spoiler:such as when Lancelot kills Kariya by overdraining the latter's Mana]]. A lesser version of this are the Homunculus [[spoiler:such as Irisviel and her daughter Ilyasviel]] who are walking circuits of magic in the shape of human beings.

* The world of ''{{Exalted}}'' is the great grand master pimp-daddy of this trope, and takes it for all it's worth. ''Everything'', from the lowliest [[PunyEarthlings mortal]], to the [[BigGood Unconquered Sun]], from the most solid center of [[FlatWorld Creation]], to the pure chaos of the [[ChaosWorld Wyld]], is made of [[{{Mana}} Essence]].
* ''DungeonsAndDragons''

* In ''Literature/TheDresdenFiles'', the [[EldritchLocation Nevernever]] and all it's [[OurSpiritsAreDifferent inhabitants]] are this.

* In ''DragonBall'', this is said to be the origin of Majin Buu, who was conjured into existence by an extremely powerful wizard named Bibidi. Later canon states that there is a race of Majin, and Bibidi was just able to control Buu.

* Espers in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'', which was a very bad thing since TheEmpire used them as weapons material.

* In ''DragonBall'', this is said to be the origin of Majin Buu, who was conjured into existence by an extremely powerful wizard named Bibidi.

* The Magical World, and most residents in ''MahouSenseiNegima'', are MadeOfMagic. This makes them vulnerable to beings able to manipulate their substance. (And gives the heroes a resistance since they're made of "mundane" matter.)
* Certain beings (phenomenons, individuals) in ''ToAruMajutsuNoIndex'' are made of AIM-field. Most of the time they spontaneously come into existence. [[MagicTheGathering You can't have so many Espers (and Mages) living so close together, all practicing so much crazy powers, and not expect some feedback.]]
