Template:Navigation CRAn ability is text and a characteristic on an object that is unitalicized, being neither flavor text nor reminder text.

Abilities always fall into one of four categories: spell abilities, activated abilities, triggered abilities, and static abilities. Some activated or triggered abilities are also mana abilities, and some static abilities are also evasion abilities. Some abilities may be indicated by the presence of a keyword.

Apart from certain keyword abilities that may be strung together on the same line, each separate ability of a card is listed on a different line. Separate abilities function independently of each other.
