I don't know the specifics (or if it'll actually be caled "magic"), but I remember Monty  calling Velvet a "mage" in the 2nd Production Diary, which led me to that 'placeholder assumption' if you will.

1 Oum = amount of aura that can absorb a bullet to the chest or something. That sounds pretty good. Though you might need it for smaller measurements, since with most people, one bullet is all they can take. I'd say something like 340 Oums is enough to block a 0.22 cal bullet to the chest from 20 meters away, given no wind resistance.... or something like that.
