A question: would a character be categorized as "Magic" even if the product they are in specifically states that it is NOT magic they are using for such powers and abilities? For example, Neopolitan from RWBY can create illusions, disguises, and teleport. However, in the RWBY universe, these are powers unique to her called a semblance, which is tied to her soul. Magic is an entirely different thing in that univere. So would it be wrong to put her in a "Magic" category despite the fact that her powers are specifically said to NOT BE MAGIC? The same applies to alchemy from the Fullmetal Alchemist franchise; despite acting like magic to us, it is considered an advanced sience to them with magic being entirely different.
