Tarkir/Magics
Types of Magic
Ugin's Magic
Primarily represented by morph and its variants manifest and megamorph, this magic was given to the clans as a way to balance their disadvantage against the dragons.
Rakshasa Magic
Not much is known of this magic, except that the Rakshasa use it to aid the Sultai as part of their pact. With the return of the Silumgar brood, the Rakshasa have fallen out of favor, and as such they do not benefit from their magic as much.
Elemental Magic
Dragon Magic
Naga Magic
Human Magics
There are varied magics amongst the clans, such as Sultai necromancy and the interconnected telepathy and prescience of the Temur shamans.
Mardu spoken magic
The Mardu have warsingers, ragesingers and the Foul Tongue, all spoken magics fit for the battlefield.
Jeskai Fires
The Jeskai categories the five colors of mana as forms of fire: white soulfire, blue mistfire, black deathfire, red bloodfire and green vitalfire. Masters of these can also wieid the colorless ghostfire, which has a tenuous link to Ugin. The Jeskai refuse to wield deathfire or vitalfire, but it is unknown if the other clans can utilize these, as their magics are not depicted as fire-themed.
Ancestor Magic
This magic was used by the Abzan, invoking the spirits of their deceased kin to aid them. It was disapproved of by Dromoka and was declared taboo by Daghatar after the Khanfall. Many Abzan continued the rites in secret up until the present day.
