About: Does Not Like Magic   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

Someone who, despite living in a world where magic is part of everyday life, considers magic to be "unnatural" and something you should avoid at all costs. The person who dislikes magic may be a practitioner of Arbitrary Skepticism. Compare Flat Earth Atheist. Both are about supernatural settings where one character is set apart by preferring the mundane, whether by choice or ignorance - but it is still much closer related to Nay Theist: Both Flat Earth Atheist and Nay Theist refuse to believe/worship, while a Magic Hater just thinks it is bad, evil or dangerous.

Common in magical settings among Church Militants. Standard for the Anti-Magical Faction. Muggles (the trope, not the common folk like the word is used in Harry Potter) are typically suspicious of magic because they are All the Other Reindeer. Compare Magic Is Evil (the Magic Hater may consider it to be), Anti-Magical Faction (where a whole society feels this way), and Ban on Magic. Examples of Does Not Like Magic include:
