* PsychicTeleportation: Everyone on the planet is OnePersonOnePower, that's due to being psychic, but was first described as magic. The powers are as varited as healing at night, melting metal, boiling and freezing water, or causing PottyFailure. The BigBad Thanos has the ability to teleport to any location he's seen previously, which he uses to good effect to impersonate that TinTyrant he's thought to be working for. This ability is later upgraded to teleporting to anywhere Lanfeust uses his Magohamoth powers, but he won't know where he's going (and once blindly teleported into the polar tundra, immediately coming back half-frozen demanding warm clothes).

Sometimes, one person can have the ultimate power, that consists of every single power ever. This is the case for Lanfeust, a young blacksmith gifted with the power of melting metal by looking at it, who, while mending the sword of a passing aristocrat, discovers that touching the sword's pommel, made with the ivory of the Magohamoth, the source of all magic in the world, grants him the ultimate power. Accompanied by Nicolède (the village sage), C'ian (Nicmlède's older daughter and Lanfeust's fiancée, who can heal any wound after nightfall), Cixi (Nicolède's younger daughter, who can make water evaporate or freeze) and Hébus (a wild troll Nicolède enchanted), Lanfeust goes to Eckmül, Troy's capital, in order to study his power. But what he'll find there will be ''a tad'' bigger than that...

** It's close to ''Literature/{{Xanth}}'' in comic form. Everyone on the world of Troy has the potential for magic power, enabled by people who train as sages at a WizardingSchool. Sages learn some charms and spells at school and "turn off" their own powers to allow people within a certain range to use theirs. They are valuable resources; for example, when trolls attack caravans, they often focus on the sages. There are also a few nations with cultural differences in how magic manifests.
