Re: Living Room
A nod. "ChocoMog is one of the weaker summoning spells. Like Ifrit, or Shiva."
She looked at Quistis. "That's a Steal. It basically lets you do just that in the middle of monster fights. Get some damn useful things that way. At higher levels, you can do some serious damage as while stealing, as well."
Sitting again, she continued. "That's how we do magic. Basically, the materia is the framework, and we provide the power to make the spells go. As you use materia, it grows in a way, and remembers more powerful spells as it does. When it's mastered, it spawns a new materia, a baby, and can't grow anymore."
She pointed. "Greens are active magic. Restore, Quake, Fire, all that. Yellows are command. Steal, Manipulate, the like. Enemy Skill is a yellow, but you use that to be able to cast skills monsters throw at you, like Big Guard and Magic Breath. Blues are supports. Enemy-Alls, Quatra magic, Final Attack. They always link with a green or a red, for the most part. Reds are summons. Shiva, Phoenix, Knights of the Round. The stronger those get, the more times you can summon in a row."
She pointed to each color as she mentioned them. "Purples, like Squall is wearing, are odd. They don't require any active activation. They are always working, usually boosting abilites." She reached over and slowly touched the one the other was wearing. "HP Plus. Adds to your health. And I must have put that on you, as that's my bracer."
Settling back, she looked at them. "Any questions?"
