Magic

Overview
Magic is the very power that people possess to stay in existence. Mages research and exercise this power that is deviated from the laws of the world. Which means, if one does not possess the power to stay in existence in that world or place, he or she may die, disappear, or lose control of themselves. It is not confined by logic or common sense, and is thought to be generated by emotions and desires. Body contact improves the sensitivity to magic.

Archives
In the Trinity Seven universe, magic is both an energy and an art form that magicians utilize to achieve a desired effect. However, most magicians (with the possible exception being magic king candidates) are limited to one of seven Archives. Within each archive are many thema. Each of these archives are centered around one of the Seven Deadly Sins, they are:

Most magicians will choose an Archive and Thema that is opposite of what their personality is.
 * Luxuria (Lust)
 * Superbia (Pride)
 * Acedia (Sloth)
 * Ira (Wrath)
 * Avaritia (Greed)
 * Gula (Gluttony)
 * Invidia (Envy)

There are several magical armaments and tools that are available only to an individual who masters the respective Archive of said tool, for example the Ishgaroth member Rogue mastered three Archives and thus possessed three such tools.

Upon mastering 3 different Archives a magus earns the title of a "Trinity", by combining this with her Magic King Element Hijiri was able to achieve a transformation into the manifestation of the Ira archive, namely "Satan", and gained an appearance similar to Arata while transformed into Astral Trinity.

As a Magician's Research of their "Thema" progresses they tend to lose control of their own magic and in turn, lose control of themselves. They turn into Spectres, beings that were once magicians that devoured by their own magic.
