== Magic points ==
Each character that is allowed magic has a maximum Magic Point level which is displayed with the Party statistics. A Cleric with a Wisdom attribute of 25, will have an maximum Magic Point level of 25. However, a Ranger whose Intelligence is 15, and whose Wisdom is 10, will only have a maximum Magic Point level of 5, half of his Wisdom, which is the lesser of the two attributes. Spells cost a different amount of energy to cast. A character replenishes that energy at a rate of one point per turn on the surface, and one point every four turns in a town or dungeon. Druids regain two points per turn, which is quite an advantage. Initial character races must be chosen carefully, or your characters may never develop enough mystical force within them to succeed on your quest.

== Wizard spells ==
Wizard spells are designed to both aid the party and attack or disable any enemies that you encounter.  Below is an inscription contained in The Book of Amber Runes, followed by the list of spells available to a class capable of casting wizard spells.
:''Welcome O Pilgrim:''
:''Take up and guard this book of arcane runes; it contains the tools of thy new power. No longer art thou an Initiate of the Fifth Circle. Thine old book of Jade Runes holds no power here. Surviving the spiritual transfiguration of the Great Stygian Abyss hath earned for thee the Mantle of Adept of the Sixth Circle. Few indeed have the strength or skill to cross the Abyss.''


'''Version differences:'''
:''Study and use wisely the powerful knowledge contained herein. Their careful use will enable thee to succeed in any quest. Squandering their strength will bring about thy ruin.''
* '''16-bit ports ([[Amiga|AMI]] - [[Atari ST|AST]]):''' the Druid and the Ranger have the same magic system; their max MP equal half the best of INT and WIS; they replenish 2MP per turn up to half the lower of INT and WIS (then, they restore 1 MP per turn).
* '''Ponycanyon ports (NES, etc.):''' the Druid replenishes just 1MP per turn, as any other character.


== Cleric spells ==
:''May thou live and grow wise in interesting times!''
Cleric spells are designed to protect, aid, and heal your party throughout their adventure.  Few cleric spells are actually used to attack the enemy, but those that exist are powerful indeed.


=== List ===
::''The Druid Selzhanik,''
NES names are in brackets. "Wiz" refers to the total MP spent by a Wizard when he casts the "Cleric" spell.


Default sorting is by "description", then by MP.

| <span style="font-size:large;">'''Repond'''</span><br/>Magic Cost: 0<br/>Input: {{kbd|A}}<br/>Effect: Destroy orcs/goblins/trolls (50% fail)
|  
There was a time, long ago, when the lands were free of the wretched creatures known as Orcs, Goblins, and Trolls. These creatures did not evolve naturally, but rather are the magical mutations performed by demented magicians. Now these creatures have prospered through many generations and their horrors are well known.
 
Have with thy person a staff of Yew, preferably cut from a hard and fine grained sapling. If Orcs, Goblins, or Trolls threaten thy party, raise thy staff before them and speak the name of this Rune of dispelling. By casting this Rune, thou shalt be attempting to dispel the magic which is part of their inner being.

| <span style="font-size:large;">'''Mittar'''</span><br/>Magic Cost: 5<br/>Input: {{kbd|B}}<br/>Effect: Magic missile
|  
Place upon thy palm and close in a strong fist any small projectile of wood or stone. Strike it once upon thy breast, while chanting the incantation of Mittar:
 
<center>ANJI MULA NESPON LEVI MITTAR NOPSEN ALUM CAVI</center>
 
Hurl this talisman toward thine enemy. Magic in the form of a shimmering sphere of iridescent light will spring from thy hand to strike thy foe. The magic contained therein will enter his body and disrupt his life force.
 
Depending on the skill and concentration invested in its conjuring, this spell can deliver the blow of an insolent child or a stalwart knight.

| <span style="font-size:large;">'''Lorum'''</span><br/>Magic Cost: 10<br/>Input: {{kbd|C}}<br/>Effect: Minor light spell
|  
Before entering any dungeon, cave, or even houses with unsteady lanterns, be sure that thou hast propertied a goodly supply of Lorum dust. This is easily done by collecting the fine dust from a spider's bath which has been warmed by strong sun for many hours. Gather the dust into a chamois bag and seal the sun's energy within it by singing these words:
 
<center>OBREY URICUM OBLA SUM</center>
 
To release the energy, chant these same words in reverse order and cast a small portion of dust into the air. A warm, soft, magical light of short duration will be produced.

| <span style="font-size:large;">'''Dor Acron'''</span><br/>Magic Cost: 15<br/>Input: {{kbd|D}}<br/>Effect: Down one dungeon level
|  
Very useful when one desires to bypass a particularly bothersome portion of a dungeon. Dor Acron is cast with the air of the left forepaw of a badger. Store the paw with care, for if it is damaged in any way, which should hinder the badger's movement, thy way will be similarly impeded.
 
Having made these preparations, when thou desires to enact the augury, gather thy party into a ring. While holding the paw, chant this ancient rhyme:
 
<center>LIEDLAN SPULGER IDSKRIN<br/>GRUEN BEAST TRENTLE BAN</center>
 
When this spell is cast, the mage and his companions will be transported to the next lower level of inhabitation.

| <span style="font-size:large;">'''Sur Acron'''</span><br/>Magic Cost: 20<br/>Input: {{kbd|E}}<br/>Effect: Up one dungeon level
|
This rune is closely related to Dor Acron, direction being the only difference in effect. In this case the dried wing of a bird is needed. The bird must be shot through the breast with an arrow, whilst in flight. Thread the wing on a leather thong and tie it to the tip of thy staff.
 
Once again, gather thy party into a ring and while holding the wing intone this verse of magical movement:
 
<center>LIEDLAN SPULGER IDSTRIN<br/>FAUN BEAST FENTRI CHEM</center>
 
As the words are chanted thy party will be lifted through the floor above thee to the dungeon's next higher level.

| <span style="font-size:large;">'''Fulgar'''</span><br/>Magic Cost: 25<br/>Input: {{kbd|F}}<br/>Effect: Fireball
|  
This incantation is a powerful weapon in battle. It requires a golden rod wrapped with iron and a vial of magical water collected from a meadow pond at the very moment lightning touches its surface. Keep the vial sealed until battle is nigh. Then touch the rod to the vial and level it at thy foe whilst shouting these words:
 
<center>FLAMIN FLEETIS PONDI</center>
 
All of the energy will be conducted through the golden rod, and a fiery ball will spin a searing path toward thine enemy. It will unfailingly strike him with a force strong enough to kill most common men and cause great damage to beasts of greater strength.

| <span style="font-size:large;">'''Dag Acron'''</span><br/>Magic Cost: 30<br/>Input: {{kbd|G}}<br/>Effect: Random teleport on surface
|  
This incantation requires that a pattern of rays extending from a common origin be drawn on the ground whilst the following chant is recited:
 
<center>DAG FULNUS ACRON<br/>FRIEDA ACRON BOONT</center>
 
As each ray is drawn a member of thy party will disappear and then with the final stroke thee too shall vanish. In the next moment at some random location on the terrestrial plan, each of the members of thy part and finally thyself will appear.
 
This run can only be used on the Sosarian surface. It will always take thee someplace, but thy destination is a matter of speculation.

| <span style="font-size:large;">'''Mentar'''</span><br/>Magic Cost: 35<br/>Input: {{kbd|H}}<br/>Effect: Magic missile (INT based)
|
In order to cast this most terrifying spell, an oak gall must be collected of the sort most often found on ancient trees in dark and gloomy forest folds. Dip the oak gall in molten wax while chanting this verse from the tome of Mantar:
 
<center>ZANBAR LEECHEN<br/>CERDI MENTAR</center>
 
Then, when battle is upon thee, crush the oak gall within thy hand. As the gall collapses, a blue ball of screaming horror will fly toward thine enemy. It will invade his mind, and irreparably corrupt his mental process, in direct proportion to thine own intelligence.

| <span style="font-size:large;">'''Dag Lorum'''</span><br/>Magic Cost: 40<br/>Input: {{kbd|I}}<br/>Effect: Major light spell
|  
This spell is similar in effect, but more enduring that Lorum. Place a golden dagger in strong sunlight until it is got enough to burn skin. Then scrape it heavily against a stone until a golden dust is produced. As the dust collects on the stone, change these words and gather the dust into a silken bag:
 
<center>OBRUM URICA OBLA SUM<br/>URICA MANI SUM LEVI</center>
 
When the need for extended illumination arises, hold the silken bag and shake it. A small portion of the bust will release it's energy in the form of an enduring, golden, shimmering light.

|  
The ability to cast a clerical spell is a great power indeed. Fal Divi will open before thee a tremendous range of power otherwise inaccessible to the sixth circle. The performance of this invocation is not a simple task, and often does not succeed.
 
Sprinkle thy body with holy water and slowly chant the prayer of Fal Divi:
 
<center>FAL DIVI DOM MI NEA<br/>FAL DIVI REQUI SEM</center>
 
Refer to the Cleric's spells and do as the spell therein requires. If this prayer is properly chanted, unto thee will come the power to use any of the supplications of the Cleric's Book.

|  
This spell is the first of the multi-pronged attacks, and can be of great aid when thou art attacked by a large band of formidable foes.
 
When the two moons of Sosaria are new, travel to the entrance of the dungeon of fire. Gather some of the volcanic ash which is abundant there. On the same night, mix this with herbs of cinnamon and ginseng in equal proportion.
 
The use of this magical mixture requires that thou speak the Rune of Noxum before hurling the ashen mix toward thine enemies:
 
<center>NOXUM MENTON<br/>LANU FLAMA</center>
 
As thou dost, it will catch flame and rush at thy foes, thwarting each with a devastating blow.

The sun hath made it's consecutive cycles and thou hast gained great experience in magic. Thy skill and power have now reached the sphere of direct magical determination.
 
With the intonation of this spell, though dost draw on the magical force of all life and focus it upon thy foe.
 
Sing the song of Decorp and the air will shake with the war of magic rushing to thy command. Upon whomever thou shalt indicate, the Magic shall descent, and their life shall be extinguished - always and completely:

First, gather a fistful of sand, and while repeating the enchantment of Altair let it flow from thy hand onto the ground:

Dag Mentar is a powerful multi-pronged conjuration that will wreck havoc among thy foes in a manner worthy of it's advanced rating. On the darkest night of the summer, trap an owl, old and wise. Sacrifice the owl upon a stone altar, keeping only its eyes. Enchant them with the following verse:
 
<center>FENDI MENTAR DIVI<br/>CREMBI MENTAR BONI</center>
 
When battle is nigh, repeat the stanzas until the heaviness of magic in the air becomes oppressive to the labor of thy lungs. Smash the eyes between thy hands. Thy foes will be struck a savage blow with damage directly related to thine intelligence.

On the night of a full moon, acquire the liver of one who is dying of the black rot. Hang the organ deep within the forest to dry, and allow six fortnights and a day to pass. Grind it into a fine powder while chanting these words:
 
<center>DON CORPUS MIEDA FUTZ<br/>RIEDA DON NEMI</center>
 
Store the powder in several small vials. When the need arises, throw a vial above the heads of thine enemy's party. It will magically shatter, releasing the loathsome rot upon their company. They will be quickly transformed into putrid vestiges of their former beings, with little strength left for battle.

This exorcism has no name, for the words should never be written or spoken - save the occasion when life is to be banished unto the Realm of Night. This most powerful invocation carries the name of the Dark One.
 
The enactment of this Run requires thine utmost concentration. With a staff of yew, trace upon the ground the protective pentagram. Light a candle at the point most generally in the direction of thine enemies. Cast some sulphur dust into the flame and speak the name of the Evil One. All foes who hear this utterance shall be dashed violently into certain destruction, possessing no more life than the stones upon which they lie.

== Cleric spells ==
Cleric spells are designed to protect, aid, and heal your party throughout their adventure.  Few cleric spells are actually used to attack the enemy, but those that exist are powerful indeed.  Below is an inscription contained in The Ancient Liturgy of Truth, followed by the list of spells available to a class capable of casting cleric spells.
:''Know ye that the Ancient Liturgy of Truth hath been in the care of our sect of 3000 years. Never, through the passing of each generation, hath out sacred custodianship been betrayed. We now enjoin thee, guard well the secrets held within these pages. For thee, they shall be an immeasurable blessing, but if they are revealed to one of the unenlightened, great harm could befall him. The proper use of the supplications contained within this manuscript will be thine aid in combating the evils of this world.''
:''The supplications herein are listed in ascending order of power. Most of the will be unusable until thou hast trod many paths and gained great wisdom. If thou devotes thy whole being to these Truths, the power to perform actual miracles will be granted thee. As thou art exalted enough to be close to the One, The power even over life and death may be thine. Take heed that thou dost not use these precious gifts in a frivolous manner, but for the betterment of the order.''
:''Receive now my blessing through the dark veil of time. Know always that within thyself Truth was discovered, and that this Truth forms the basis of unyielding power.''


::''The Prophet''


=== Field spells analysis ===
::''Alizarkanon''
These spells include all the healing spells, that can be used both during and after battle, plus some spells that can be used anytime outside battle. In other games they would be referred to as "White Magic". Their usefulness is unrivaled.

Evil takes many forms throughout Sosaria, and some of the most evil are the Undead. Skeletons, ghouls, and zombies roam free in dungeons, forests and open terrain. Although they are formidable opponents in battle, there is a basic weakness in their essence. These servants of evil are vestiges of former living beings now inhabited by an evil force.
 
If thou shall encounter undead creatures, raise thy ankh of truth before them. If thou dost stand strong in the spirit of Good, evil shall be dispelled from their beings and only their rotting corpses shall remain.

Often the chest which thou shalt find along thy journeys will contain a trap, the intent of which is to damage thee and thy party. Since thou dost have the innate ability to know the true nature of evil, thou can overcome this difficulty.
 
To open a chest with no risk of injury to thyself or thy party, pour a few drops of holy water into the lock and invoke the air of the One who is all truth by raising the holy ankh over the chest. It will open freely and allow thee to grasp it's inner treasures.

Thy powers for healing will be often needed. The healing of minor wounds can be accomplished with this simple supplication. Through the channel which thy selfless devotion creates in thee, Truth and forces of Good can act directly in this world.
 
Merely lay thy hand upon the one who is to be healed, and his wounds will be mended beneath thy touch. In the beginning thine ability will be limited, but with thine other powers, thy capacity to act as a healer will grow and be strengthened by experience.

Part of thine enlightenment is the realization that there are no boundaries. When this truth is known unto thee, the material world is far less limiting that ordinarily supported.
 
As thou descendth deeper and deeper into the bowels of the earth, though shall likewise be descending into greater evil. Being thyself of a good nature, this tends to give thee a natural buoyancy, as if in water. Speak the name of this supplication whilst touching thy staff to the ceiling of a dungeon passage. This will cause the ceiling to become translucent; thee and thy party will freely float to the next higher dungeon level.

The range of thine ability for spiritual movement is not limited to ascension. Far below the earth's surface, and far below the deepest recesses of the deepest dungeon, flow the molten streams and rivers which feed the earth's core. Here also resides The Great Evil. Due to thy natural buoyancy, downward travel is somewhat more difficult and less desirable than upward. If thou must descent into evil, speak the name of this supplication whilst tapping thy staff upon the floor. The floor will become translucent; thee and thy party will slowly sink to the next lower dungeon level.

This is the most difficult of the spiritual movements. The planar motion allowed here must begin within a dungeon chamber.


=== Dungeon spells analysis ===
Lib Rec differs from the two previous supplications in the following way: Instead of the earth allowing thy physical form to pass, now thy form itself shall become translucent. As thou dost fade in one location thou shalt slowly appear in another.
These spells can only be used in dungeons, to create light or teleport the party. Most of them have an identical counterpart in the [[#Wizard Spells]] system, but the Wizards one are usually a few MP cheaper.

Alcort is a specialized form of healing. Poison is a horror all beings fear for with it comes almost certain death. Only with the assistance of the divine power can thou halt the ravages of this great evil.
 
With thy touch, the poison coursing in the veins of thy companion shall be transformed into a life-giving fluid which soothes the body and brings peace unto the soul.
 
Thou can rest confident that thou hast delivered one from the grasp of poison. This power has been promised by the One whose covenant has never been broken.

Occasionally during journeys unto the lower depths of the subterranean, thy party may run into great trouble. This could be the death or near death of a party member, starvation besieging thy entire party, or becoming lost with little hope of finding thy way.
 
This supplication is the beseechment of the greater Truth to aid the weary traveler in escaping his rocky tomb.

Thine enlightenment hath expanded and will continue to unfold like the star-filled heavens above.
 
The first light which thy Truth created for thee was wondrous indeed, and luminance of this sort will continue to be of great service to thee. Yet in order to fulfill some greater needs, more enduring illumination is required.

Prepare a small tin of fine scented oil and ask this it be blessed with the perfection and holiness of truth. Anoint the wounds with the oil, allowing it to penetrate deeply.

Occasionally thee and thy companions will be set upon by creatures of great might and evil. Opposing these foes can be a difficult task at best. The liturgy of Truth provides also for this need.


=== Attack spells analysis ===
Should thy party encounter an evil foe of great strength thou may wish to call upon the miracle of Excuun. By holding the holy ankh of Truth in the direction of thy foe and speaking the name of this great miracle, thou can direct the pure light of the holy force of Truth at thy foe, and the life within on of thy foes shall cease.
These spells simply deal damage to the enemies. Multi-target spells can wipe out all enemies at once.

== Wizard spells ==
== NES port spells ==
Wizard spells are designed to both aid the party and attack or disable any enemies that you encounter.
 
On the NES port of Ultima 3 spells names were changed. Also, the port had the option of readymade characters with pre-assigned races; the table below lists the spell users according to such predetermied races.
 
Profession abreviations are the ones used in the NES video game: Pldn = Paladin, Ilsnt = Illusionist, Alcmt = Alchemist, Rngr = Ranger


=== List ===
Characters between brackets can learn the spell but don't need it, either because they can access a cheaper version in the other system (Wizard, Druid, Ranger), or because they can use more effective weapons (Lark, Ranger).
Default sorting is by "description", then by MP.

=== Field spells analysis ===
Wizards are specialized in attack spells, nevertheless these few spells are a good complement to the Cleric. The most useful of these is probably the Time Stopper, although Sands of Time will have the same effect. The Cleric spell is also useful, as it provides more healing for your party. The teleport spell is useful only if you get stuck using the Moongates.

=== Attack spells analysis ===
These spells simply deal damage to the enemies. A single-target attack spell deals less damage than a good ranged weapon, moreover it costs MP and cannot be cast repeatedly. On the other hand, powerful multi-target attck spells can wipe out all the enemies at once.
 
Most likely, your characters will use just four of these spells: the basic repel spell, the cheapest single-target fireball, and the two strongest multi-target flash. The remaining five spells are rather useless.
