First of all that is ‘magic’ which is different to ‘ magical ’    and that last sentence about Lydia was just an example and not what is being said in the main discussion. Second the word influence means something different to the word create and so far no one else has mentioned “making something out of nothing” as far as I am aware. Furthermore if you completely forget the words magic and magical and replace them with supernatural like I said before there is no discrepancy between what I and some of the others have been saying about the topic it fits in with both the canon and other mythology.

To sum up and get back to the topic

-Banshees are supernatural creatures as their supernatural ability is a physiological and genetic part of them (see earlier contributions)

-druids including the Darach are non-supernatural as any supernatural power they use comes from another supernatural source

-it is unknown why banshees are able to touch/use mountain ash but speculations as to why are posted in earlier contributions
