Fiction Suit is a term coined by Grant Morrison in the comic book, "The Invisibles," to describe a method of using a fictional character to enter a fictional story and alter it. This practice is a form of Narrative Magic.

The magician creates a character and wears this character as a Fiction Suit in a story s/he is either writing or rewriting. The magician simply writes himself into the story. When written with intent, Narrative Magic will often have an effect on the life of the magician, often with strange parallels with the fictional story s/he writes.

And once it’s real, in a sense, it’s always been."
