Revision as of 04:47, 23 May 2017
- Not to be confused with the dark magic from other games in the series.
Black magic (Japanese: くろまほう Black magic) is a weapon type in the Fire Emblem series appearing exclusively in Fire Emblem Gaiden and its remake Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia. It is comprised of the game's offensive spells. Spells not exclusive to Gaiden appear as other types of magic in other games in the series. Despite the name, two black magic spells appear in other games of the series as light magic tomes. Along with white magic, black magic makes up the broader magic weapon type in the original NES release, but it is split from it in the remake.
