unmagical
Without supernatural power
Unmagical describes something lacking magic, wonder, or enchantment.
The word usually appears in contexts where magic might be expected but is absent: The unmagical world of ordinary life, an unmagical explanation for the strange lights.
It can also describe a person without magical abilities in fantasy settings, or more figuratively, something disappointingly mundane: The date was thoroughly unmagical.
