It gave me abilities, yes. I'm not sure I would call them magic. It's all explained by some science that I don't fully understand, but if you wanted the full explanation there are people here who could help with that.
It's a little embarrassing because most of the abilities are really only good for being terribly violent with, which is something I do not like. Basically, superhuman strength, healing and... the ability to make things really, really hot?
