== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* The entire [[Shinigami]]-world of ''[[Bleach]]'' is ''[[Up to Eleven|made]]'' from 'spirit particles', making those skills that rely on [[Energy Absorption|absorbing]] said particles many times more powerful. There's some fairly nifty scenes where you can see nearby walls and buildings slowly dissolving as the particles are absorbed and redirected into an attack...
* The Living Programs (including Wolkenritter and Materials) in the ''[[Lyrical Nanoha]]'' series are constructs made out of magical energy. Also, the Unison Devices are probably thus, too.
* The Magical World, and most residents in ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'', are Made of Magic. This makes them vulnerable to beings able to manipulate their substance. (And gives the heroes a resistance since they're made of "mundane" matter.)
* Certain beings (phenomenons, individuals) in ''[[ToA AruCertain Majutsu noMagical Index]]'' are made of AIM-field. Most of the time they spontaneously come into existence. [[Magic: The Gathering|You can't have so many Espers (and Mages) living so close together, all practicing so much crazy powers, and not expect some feedback.]]
* The Servants (Heroic Spirits) in ''[[Fate/stay night]]'' and ''[[Fate/Zero]]'' are made of Mana, and will disappear when their Master can no longer channel Mana into them {{spoiler|such as when Lancelot kills Kariya by overdraining the latter's Mana}}. A lesser version of this are the Homunculus {{spoiler|such as Irisviel and her daughter Ilyasviel}} who are walking circuits of magic in the shape of human beings.
* In ''[[Dragon Ball]]'', this is said to be the origin of Majin Buu, who was conjured into existence by an extremely powerful wizard named Bibidi.
 
== [[ComicsComic Books]] ==
* ''[[Green Lantern]]'' Hal Jordan recreates his [[Doomed Hometown|destroyed hometown]] of Coast City using his [[Green Lantern Ring|power ring]].
 
== [[Fan Works]] ==
* In ''[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13439553/1/That-Was-Part-of-the-Plan That Was Part of the Plan]'', the second of a series of ''[[Harry Potter]]'' fics by LysandraLeigh, it's revealed by a character who claims to have been there at its creation that Hogwarts was originally an entirely ''conjured'' structure, capable of [[Transforming Mecha|reconfiguring itself]] as needed for defense or other purposes. However, after a couple generations this was forgotten, and new wings and expansions were added to it with mundane materials, limiting its ability to restructure itself ''and'' weakening its wards.
* So-called "solid energy" projections created by Doug Sangnoir in ''[[Drunkard's Walk]]'' seem to be this, and vanish once he stops sustaining them.
 
== [[Literature]] ==
* Everything in the magical world in ''[[The Dark Lord of Derkholm]]'' contains magic in it to the point that people from another world were digging up dirt in that world and smuggling it into their magic-less world to do magic (and make a lot of cash).
* ''[[Discworld]]'' isn't made of magic, but it is explicitly noted in the novel ''[[Discworld/The Last Hero|The Last Hero]]'' that without magic the turtle would die, the seas run dry, the sun burn out and crash, and the elephants would cease to exist altogether. And that would happen within a few seconds of magic ceasing to exist.
** A more direct example is the tower Coin constructs in ''[[Discworld/Sourcery|Sourcery]]'' which is literally willed into being from magic made solid:
{{quote|'''Coin: '''It is made of magic. Raw magic. Solidified. Curdled. Renewed from second to second. Could you imagine a better substance to build the new home of sourcery?}}
* ''[[The Princess Series]]'' features {{spoiler|the Seven Dwarves}} as living representations of elements, the last of which is magic.
* In ''[[The Dresden Files]]'', the [[Eldritch Location|Nevernever]] and all it's [[Our Spirits Are Different|inhabitants]] are this.
 
== [[Live -Action TV]] ==
* In ''[[Monty Python's Flying Circus]]'', The Amazing Mystico and Janet [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APoweyWW2vg put up blocks of flats] using the power of hypnosis.
{{quote|Of course they're safe. There's absolutely no doubt about that. They are as strong, solid and as safe as any other building method in this country. Provided of course people believe in them.}}
