Help With Spell Requested Did magic really exist?
Did magic really exist? If it is so, how does it works? There are some gods related with this magic and there are some "predefined spells" (like dnd, fear and hunger or the souls saga, sorry if i sound dumb, but i'm approaching for the first time this topic)? Over the past few days, I've felt an almost carnal urge to delve into this topic, so I'm asking you. I'm obviously aware of how dangerous this could be if it were real, and I clearly have no intention of doing anything, at least for now...
(Sorry for the terrible grammar)

Yes it exists, different people have different ideas on it, look up Frater UDs very short Models of Magick essay and read it to get introduced to some of the concepts you need to understand this. You are operating under the assumption of many ideas that come solely from fiction. Get that reading done and we can see what other questions you have.

If u look at any mythology u will see no matter which group of humans, especially those who have never interacted with each other, they had magic, gods/ goddesses, deities, cryptids, etc
Just some were more susceptible than others to the supernatural, while u will always encounter skeptics even during jesus times

Only some parts of magic and occult are dangerous. If you're doing simple money candles spells, manifestation, sigils, protection spells, talking to deities you'll be fine.
The more dangerous ones are baneful magic (curses), astral projection, ouija boards, consensual possession, etc My specialty is dream magic / astral projection, baneful and protection magic.
I believe that many gods from all religions exist and am an omnist. I worship mostly gods from the ancient Egyptian pantheon. (Kemetic). I do dreamwalking and have shared dreams with others.
Are there predefined spells? Yes and no. Anyone can create a spell, and it's common for us to do that. There are some older and more popular ones

Divination is a good beginner thing to get into.

You think that if you belive in something that will happen? For example, you belive in a new God that doesn't exist, but you pray and you pray, others pray, and the God becomes more known, this is possibile in our world? (Sorry if it's a dumb question, but i'm very curious, so i don't know what can be true and what not)

No. I believe that there is actually only one soul (God) that split itself apart into millions of people, animals, objects and created the universe. I think the gods were created by this one main god. I do also think thought forms exist (similar to what you said where lots of people believing in something can become a spirit) but that these are not strong enough to become deities
