So a relic could boost your strength, or perhaps allow you to regenerate health, etc ?

Yup. As I said in the OP magic in Azukhar is separated into three schools, elemental (This is your basic bitch ATLA style stuff), Physical which is the ability to alter/edit your body and even have an effect on others (see mind control) and the spiritual which is where you get into the weird and wacky abilities that don't really fit into either field.
