The magic materia is green. Usually, it has 3 to 5 levels (stars), and each time the materia gains a level, it's possible to use a new spell, with the first being equivalent to slight tickling, the second being the one you use most, and third one being the one that kills everything dead (or heals everyone alive or something). There are a few exceptions like [[#Ultima|Ultima]]. The first star filled at the beginning and the last star being filled means the materia is mastered, thus depending on the stars the materia can usually have 2 to 4 spells - in Ultima's case, only one.
{{Header Nav|game=Final Fantasy VII}}


The materia is here divided quite arbitrarily to Black and White magic; this division is more of a traditional ''Final Fantasy'' thing and isn't used in the games as such. Also, the Black magic is divided to Elemental and Non-Elemental attacks.

== Black magic ==
In the various sections Materia are sorted by the AP necessary to master them. Free locations of materia are highlighted in '''bold'''.

=== Elemental and quasi-elemental spells ===
== Healing materia ==
===Restore===
The three '''Cure''' spells restore the health points of the target; they are associated to the '''"Holy"''' element: if cast on an undead enemy, it will be damaged instead. The '''Regen''' spell changes the status, and the status will progressively recover health during battle; this spell has not the "Holy" element.

==== Earth ====
===Revive===
These two spells will revide a knocked out ally. If linked to a [[../Support Materia|'''Final Attack''' materia]], the user will be revived automatically whenever he/she is knocked out. ''Life1'' revives the target with minimal HP, while ''Life2'' revives the target with full health. Both spells are '''Holy'''-elemental, and will instantly defeat an undead target.

==== Gravity ====
== Support materia ==
The Demi spells cause a lot of damage (particularly to fliers), but are not too accurate. Also, most bosses are nearly immune to Gravity effects as well.
===Exit===
The '''Escape''' spells has limited use: it allows the party to flee a battle, if the player made the mistake of entering an area infested by strong enemies without saving the game beforehand. It doesn't allow the party to escape from boss battles.


Effective against Emerald Weapon when used with W-Magic or Quadra Magic.
'''Remove''' is an attack spell that instantly defeats all enemies, including undead. The drawback is that the enemy's Gil are removed, too (the party will gain no Gil from the battle).

==== Ice ====
===Time===
'''Haste''' doubles the filling speed of the turn gauge of the target. '''Slow''' is its converse: it slows down the target. If Haste is cast on all heroes and Slow is cast on all opponents, the party will attack many times more than the enemies.


==== Lightning ====
'''Stop''' prevents enemies from acting, until it wears off.

==== Poison ====
===Barrier===
'''Barrier''' and '''Magic Barrier''' cut by half, respectively, physical and magical damage suffered by the target. '''Wall''' grants both statuses at once.


=== Non-elemental spells ===
'''Reflect''' bounces back most spells to the caster. It is great to cast it on all the party during a battle against a strong magic user: the enemy will defeat itself!

===Shield===
Can be obtained from the top floor of one of the houses in the Forgotten Capital.
The '''Shield''' status is an upgrade to the "Wall" spell above: it prevents all physical damage and absorbs all elemental damage. The target will still suffer non-elemental magic damage, anyway.

Can be obtained from Mideel. Give it greens (Mimett Greens) to the small white chocobo, then scratch it behind the ears.
===Transform===
This materia inflicts or cures the said statuses, '''Mini''' and '''Toad'''. When a character or enemy is miniaturized, his/her physical attacks will deal 1 damage only; when a character or enemy is turned into a toad, not only his/her physical attacks deal 1 damage, but also he/she cannot use magic (except for the Toad spell).

'''Death''' is an attack spell that inflicts instant death (it is ineffective on undead targets and heals them to full health).

==== Transform ====
== Attack materia ==
Base magic is computed by multiplying 6 times (your level + your MP). For example, a level 20 character with 30 MP has base magic damage of 300 (6 × (20 + 30)). To find the amount of damage you'll do with a given spell, use the multiplier given with your base magic damage. Using the previous example, if the character cast [[#Comet|Comet]], he would do 1 500 damage (300 × 5).


==== Ultima ====
Pairing magic with an All materia drops the damage done to 67% (2/3rds) and using Quadra Magic drops it to 50% damage.
Can be obtained for free by stopping the materia train in Corel in Disc 2. If you fail to stop the train, it can be bought.

=== Heal ===
===Gravity===
The Demi spell drop the target's health to a specific percentage of the maximum: '''Demi''' drops health down to 75%, '''Demi2''' drops it to 50%, '''Demi3''' drops it to 25%. If the target was already damaged beyond 75%/50%/25% of its maximum HP, the corresponding demi spell will deal no further damage. For this reason, casting a gravity spell twice on the same target has no effect.


=== Restore ===
If a target is weak against gravity, Demi2 and Demi3 will instantly defeat him/her.


=== Revive ===
Most bosses are nearly immune to Gravity element. Effective against Emerald Weapon when used with W-Magic or Quadra Magic.

== Master Magic ==
Note that pairing Contain with [[../Support Materia|"All"]] has no effect.
The Master Magic materia basically gives you all the abilities of all the magic materias. It can be gotten either by defeating Emerald WEAPON and trading in the Earth Harp at Kalm, or by mastering all the magic materias and trading them for the Master Magic materia at Cosmo Canyon (if you managed to save that Huge materia anyway). The Master Magic materia can be linked to and "All" or a "Quadra Magic" materia to give all spells the effect of the support materia.
