Aaaanywho... Generally, all superpowers that are not explicitly stated as being a result of magic will either have a scientific, or pseudo-scientific at least, explaination, and if it doesn't it will genrally be assumed not to be magical, unless that is the theme of the story, or circumstances point towards it being magic... There have been exceptions, like the Scarlet Witch's "magical" powers actually being a result of mutant powers which caused her wishes to alter reality... exceptions like that generally don't happen though, and based on the story so far, all our powers are based on science-fictional explainations, do to aplied phlebotinum (the Pandoran Malachite, or whatever it turns out to be that caused them). I would be somewhat sad if magic were put into into this game, but I already know it almost certainly will, because magical ellements tend to exist in the same universes superpowers do, in the form of the occasional sorceror or in-universe gods, who don't tend to be all powerful, as I have said before. This is an acceptable addition, IMO, but I really hope they do not force it down our throats, or put it in excessive amounts. I would, for example probably save the Asgard from the an invasion from Jötunheimr (if it was a storyline, or whatever... Thor's equivalent has already been stated to exist in this game's universe), but I would neither want to use magic to accomplish it, or to have myself or my clan members be brought to Valhalla (if any of us die), because of the religious implications... they probably wouldn't include that in the storyline anyway, because it's supposed to be an eternal resting place, but you know what I mean... I'd be completely fine with them mentioning it, for example, in their battle cries, or dialog, but I wouldn't want it to be actually put in-game... I would be willing to have certain things like that in-game, but in certain ammounts, and with discretion, so as not to insult anyone. Besides, this game is supposed to be set aside from AQW, and have considerable differences, so they'd want to avoid too much magic, anyway...
