| One day he finds a 12-year-old girl hanging from the porch railing. The girl explains that her name is Index, that she is part of "Necessarius", the Church of Necessary Evil, and that she decorated an entire library of 103,000 prohibited books, that is, she is the Index of Forbidden Books itself (Index Librorum Prohibitorum ), and because of that, is being pursued by the so-called "Society of Magic". With that, Touma starts to believe everything Index says, and everything starts to make sense, including the mysterious power of his right hand. Index takes him to meet other people from the secret world of science and magic and thus begins the adventure where science and magic collide. Touma discovers the people he knows are not as they appear and begins to attract the attention of magicians who, like him, are already trying to unravel the secrets of the Academic City.

| '''Magician:''' Magician: A magician (魔術師 Majutsu-shi lit. Magic User) is a person trained to use magic. While any human being can use magic as long as they follow the proper steps and precautions, magicians are extensively trained and suffer less risks if something goes wrong during the process. Additionally, magic was created by people who wanted to have powers with the psychic counterpart. Although magic was designed so that most ordinary people could learn and use it, regardless of the type of magic, people with psychic powers are unable to use it without suffering serious injuries. Likewise, wizards cannot use psychic powers without serious damage. European wizards have a magic name, which is a combination of America and a numerical code that acts as a power limiter, saying your magic name to your opponents will unlock your full powers. | | '''[[Standard Equipment]]:''' |

| |
|
| '''Esper:''' Esper: Esper (能力者 Nōryokusha, lit. Ability User) is a term used to refer to a person who emits AIM. It's generally used to refer to people who have gone through Academy City's Power Curriculum Program and artificially gained an ability, though natural espers called Gemstones also exist. Unlike magicians, espers only have a single power, but they usually do not need any previous preparations to use it. Additionally, despite only having one power many espers come up with several aplications for it. Esper powers are clasified into two groups: Psychokinesis, which lists all powers that allow the user to physically influence the world around them, e.g: Telekinesis or Pyrokinesis; and Extra Sensory Perception, which lists all powers that involve the reception of information not gained through the recognized physical senses but instead use supernatural senses, e.g: Clairvoyance or Thoughtography. | | '''[[Intelligence]]:''' |
|
| |
|
| '''Levels:''' Espers in Academy City are classified in a Level system depending on the strength of their powers. The system goes from Level 0 (Person with No Powers, any power they have is too weak to be of any use or they are unable to consciously control it) to Level 5 (Person with Super Powers, powers of an extent that their wielder can fight alone against a military force on equal or superior terms). A Level 6 (Person with Absolute Powers, the user is considered to surpass humanity and enter the realm of God) has been theorized to be possible, but so far nobody has been able to reach it. | | '''Weaknesses:''' |
| *'''Level 0:''' People with no powers, but may have the potential to manifest them through hard work.
| |
| *'''Level 1:''' People with low powers. Powers of the degree to bend a spoon, many students belong here.
| |
| *'''Level 2:''' People with unusual powers. Just like Level 1, powers are not very useful in everyday life.
| |
| *'''Level 3:''' People with strong powers. The degree when powers are considered convenient in everyday life, ability-wise this is the Level when one starts to be treated as part of the elite and can use its potential for combat.
| |
| *'''Level 4:''' People with great powers. Powers of an extent that their wielder acquires tactical value of a military force.
| |
| *'''Level 5:''' People with Super Powers. Powers of an extent that their wielder can fight alone against a military force on equal terms. It's currently the highest esper level to be accomplished in Academy City. Only seven out of the 2.3 million students participating in the Power Curriculum Program have officially achieved this rank, indicating the level of difficulty involved in reaching it.
| |
| *'''Level 6:''' Powers of an extent that they're considered immeasurable, with the user being considered to surpass humanity and enter the realm of God. However, nobody has been able to achieve it yet, with many institutes in the city trying to find ways to attain it, such as the Railgun Mass Production Plan. It has been stated that only Accelerator can achieve Level 6.
