This may be too broad of a question to ask, but I've been curious at any rate. I'd like to ask about what your interpretation of "magic" is, and the basic rules of it should it have any or even limitations.

From my understanding based on my own world, there are some limitations, but magic is capable of much in talented hands.

I suppose that also begs the question of what exactly chroma can be used for, as it is in its essence not quite the typical energy source, yet capable of mild magic on its own.

Strictly defined, the word "magic" is used to describe phenomena that is impossible within the world's conditional variables, and therefor cannot truly exist. If something possesses structures that may be known and understood, then it is not truly magic, and to call it such is simply a misunderstanding of its principles.

There is a quote; "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."
