Variable. The type and level of magic in a Futuristic Fantasy story is going to depend on the world of that future. Magic may be one and the same with technology, it may be not present at all, it may be psi-powers rather than wand waving, it may have developed at the end of all things—the possibilities, as with all Fantasy, are endless.

High. When a story about the future is told, the story inevitably comments on society today. This sub-genre is also full of ideas about the genre of Fantasy. It pushes the bounds of the genre's basic conventions (namely, time period), meaning every Futuristic Fantasy story forces the genre to grow and reinvents itself. So absolutely expect to see conventions turned on their heads, seen and then dismissed, or examined through the lens of logic.

Variable. Old characters sometimes make their way into Futuristic Fantasy, which can mean flat characterization or some really interesting development on well-known characters (like Arthur!). But, the future also brings new characters, who are fun to get to know because they are often quite different from more traditional Fantasy characters. Future characters have a whole different past to shape them, which means potential for lovely, well-developed characters.

Variable. There is no characteristic Futuristic Fantasy plot, and really, with all the different genres, tropes, traditions, and possibilities that the sub-genre plays with the plot is unpredictable.

Moderate-High. The future isn't always violent, but then again, it can also be super violent. Combining the future with Fantasy's classic battle between good and evil means some pretty epic scenes are to be read. Indeed, in the future there seems to always be something to fight for.
