Atavist

Atavist (り) is a term used for people in Tortus who have the ability to either directly manipulate their own Mana, or can use any Spell without the need for any magical formation. For this reason, they are believed to be 'Descendant of the Gods' (most commonly believed to Ehit's descendants).

In many cases, an Atavist may also be able to use a special or unique Magic or Skill, which exists outside the normal system. Most Atavists can use special magic skill that is a degraded version of Ancient Magic while in rare cases, some Atavists are born with the ability to use one of the seven Ancient Magics.

Trivia

 * In real life, an refers to an organism that possesses genetic characteristics that have been dormant over previous generations.
 * While Hajime Nagumo clears the requirements to be considered an Atavist, it's still not clear if he can be considered one as the powers he has aren't achieved through normal means of being something like a dormant bloodline power, but rather by a magical mutation through an unorthodox way of consuming monsters and surviving the physical breakdown, and the fact that he isn't an original being from Tortus.
 * The situation with the Dragonmen is also not clear, since rather than a normal race, their physiology is said to be more comparable to a Monster, rather than a different race.
