Things not quite conceptual or grand enough enough for World.

Axis
An important concept in both magic and science, an Axis (also known as an Imaginary Axis) is the "dimension of you". Existing on a fundamental level beyond quantum, Axes exist beyond the reach of both science and magic. However, individuals can access their own Axis, gaining great power and self discovery through this.

When the term "Axis" is used, it more commonly refers to a Materialised Axis rather than a true Axis.

Nature of Axes
An Axis is one's personal reality, also known as one's mind. Irreconcilable with reality, an Axis exists adjacent to it, being connected only by the physical vessel. Reality and an Axis can be said to be "two sides of the same coin", as they both make up and define the human.

All Axes exist within reality but, at the same time, independently of it. To

Materialised Axis
A Materialised Axis is when an Axis is aligned with reality. Normally adjacently above reality, the process of materialising an Axis causes it to take on a limited real presence.

A Basic Axis manifests in the main means of reality perception. For many, it manifests in their eyes, being their bridge between reality and their self. For some (generally those who are impaired in other senses), it manifests on their hands. The most sought after kind is those for whom it manifests on their crown, symbolising their mind. The rarest, however, is a full body materialisation. (These are the normal kinds. There are rare cases of an Axis materialising on a familiar and books. There is one unrecorded case of it materialising on a shadow.)

The appearance of a basic Axis is a strange pattern. Generally geometric, they take on the form of faint lines upon the first materialisation. Through further use, deeper understanding of one's Axis, or greater need, the Axis will become more physical and idiosyncratic. They tend to take on otherworldly characteristics (e.g. translucency, luminescence, absorb light, warp space, appear different to each viewer, etc.), patterns, more diverse colour schemes, and any other number of traits at this point. When they
