And thus that is the born of magic. The percent of one can be able to imitate the original is not even near 1 % if you're trying to replicate divine origins but still it will help in shaping your magic. Though this is for self fuel magic.

The form of magic can be shape infinitely so any form of story from religion, fairytale, folklore or myth... etc etc can be use as a basis for magic. But still heavily dependent on one's own capacity and talent.
So the key limiting factor is the individual?

Several more things I would like to check:
  • If there are an infinite number of shapes and there weren't any other major limiting factors, then presumably if one had enough capacity and talent, they could utilise modern tales and conceptual bases? (If they could, would the requirement gap be large or small?)
  • If that were the case, would there be anything stopping someone from penning their own Idol (i.e. writing a story, spreading a rumour etc, then using it as a base)? Though by the sound of things, this would probably not save them any effort...

A couple more questions, this time regarding the Majin's power.
  • Have there been any signs that it can activate automatically?
  • If receiving a set number of attacks around the same time, is the number of coin tosses set or does it depend upon the method of dealing with them?
