The [[Discworld (world)|Discworld]] runs on '''magic'''; without magic, it would fall apart. In some places, magic is leaking or has built up during the [[Mage Wars]]. Specially gifted people can see the colour of magic, [[Octarine]].

Although all magic is technically the same, there are different ways to use it – and more importantly, ''not'' use it. [[Witches magic]], particularly, avoids it in favour of of [[headology]]. On the other hand, [[Wizard's magic]] is more showy and has more special effects (one could consider this headology of the "I'm so powerful I can waste it on making it look impressive" type).

The final category of magic is "old magic". Some magic is so old, it's hardly magic anymore. Controlling people through teeth (or nails, or hair), as shown in [[Book:Hogfather|Hogfather]] is an example of old magic.
