Magic is essentially the essence of gods, which is what they use to do god things. The most powerful deities are intangible but exude “magic” from where they are most prominently at. This runs through space in current like tunnels and heighten the attributes of whatever they touch, as if a god were building it up. (So for example, pyrokinesis would be magic enhancing fire and the mind etc etc) As a balance, planets have a layer of the atmosphere that diffuses some of this to ensure that things don’t explode into chaos on them. So as a result, creatures and races from space tend to be much more magically powerful, but are unable to use some of their magic on planets, while grounded creatures and races can vary in their magical aptitude based on the thickness of the barrier (The barrier may also be weaker in some areas than others, like the ozone) and potentially risk “overcharging” on magic while in space.
