magic point

Caster's energy unit

Magic point is a unit of energy in video games that powers spells and special abilities.

Casting a fireball or healing spell costs magic points, which regenerate over time or through items.

Usually abbreviated MP: I'm out of MP, I can't cast anything.

The concept parallels hit points for health.

Also called mana.
