'''Magic Jars''' are a reoccurring pickup item that have appeared since ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]''. They are used to replenish [[Magic Meter|Magic Power]], which is consumed while using certain magic items, magic attacks, and magic abilities. In essence, the magic jars have the exact same function as [[Potion#Green Potion|Magic Potions]], but are not sold in town shops. They are most commonly found by breaking [[jar]]s, cutting grass, or killing enemies.<ref>{{cite manual|quote=To refill your Magic Meter, find Magic Jars by defeating enemies, or looking under pots and bushes.

Magic Jars have a similar effect as [[Potion#Green Potion|Green Potions]], but generally do not replenish as much Magic, are not sold in [[Shop]]s, and are consumed on the spot instead of stored in [[Bottle]]s. They are most commonly found by breaking [[Pot]]s, cutting grass, or killing enemies.<ref>{{Cite Manual|quote=To refill your Magic Meter, find Magic Jars by defeating enemies, or looking under pots and bushes.

==Varieties of Magic Jars==
==Location and Uses==
===Red and Blue Jars===
Magic Jars in {{TAoL}} appear in two colors. Blue Magic Jars which are often dropped by defeated enemies and recover a small portion of Magic Power,<ref>{{Cite Manual|quote=Recovers Link's magic points. There are two, a red one and a blue one. The recovery power varies.|game= TAoL|page= 45}}</ref> and Red Magic Jars which are usually hidden in certain areas of the overworld, or dropped from [[Dungeon]] statues when hit with the [[Sword]]. They recover all the Magic Power.
Magic Jars in ''The Adventure of Link'' come in two colors. The most common jar, blue magic jars, are often dropped by defeated enemies and recover a small portion of magic power.<ref>{{cite manual|quote=Recovers Link's magic points. There are two, a red one and a blue one. The recovery power varies.|game=''Adventure of Link''|page= 45}}</ref> Red magic jars are much harder to find and are usually hidden in certain areas of [[Hyrule]]'s overworld. The red magic jars recover more of [[Link]]'s magic power.


===Green Jars===
Green Magic Jars appear in {{ALttP}}, {{OoT}}, {{MM}}, and {{TWW}}, appearing in two sizes. Small Jars refill a small portion of the Magic Meter, while big Jars refill the entire Magic Meter.<ref>{{Cite Manual|quote= You can restore Magic Power, which is used to power different magic items, by finding Magical Decanters. These Magical Decanters come in two sizes, big and small. A big Decanter completely refills your magic meter, and a small one restores one eighth of your magic meter.|game= ALttP|page= 27}}</ref> They are known as Magical Decanters in {{ALttP|-}}.
The most consistent form of the magic jars, found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', are the green decanters. They can be large and small, representing the amount of magic refilled.
<br>[[File:LttP_magicjar.gif]] A large decanter, known as a '''Magic Jar''', completely refills the [[Magic Meter]].
<br>[[File:LttP_magicpotion.gif]] A small decanter, referred to as a '''Magic Potion''', restores it by one eighth.<ref>{{cite manual|quote= You can restore Magic Power, which is used to power different magic items, by finding Magical Decanters. These Magical Decanters come in two sizes, big and small. A big Decanter completely refills your magic meter, and a small one restores one eighth of your magic meter. As with small hearts, you can also get these from enemies you defeat. During the game, you can set the level of Magic Power consumption at 50%, effectively doubling the amount of Magic Power you have.|game= ''A Link to the Past''|page= 27}}</ref>


===Tan Jars===
In {{TWW|-}}, big Magic Jars only refill a portion of the Magic Bar.
''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' continues the two-bottle tradition, but with slight changes. The large decanter still refills a sizable portion of the Magic Meter, but does not completely refill it. Both of the magic bottles change from their characteristic green color to tan bottles with brown designs.


==Magic Container==
==Other Appearances==
[[File:MagicContainer.gif|left|Magic Container]]
{{Noncanon|Start}}
The '''Magic Container''' is a type of Magic Jar that appears only in ''The Adventure of Link''. Its function in regards of the magic meter is the same as that of the [[Heart Container]] in regards of the life meter: It increases the maximum magic power Link can have. These large, red magic jars, also like Heart Containers, will disappear from their location once obtained. The jar will add another square to Link's overall [[Magic Meter]].<ref>{{cite manual|quote=The containers for MAGIC points increase by one and are restored. Points increase by a maximum of 16.|game=''Adventure of Link''|page=45}}</ref>
==={{HW|-}}===
{{Stub|HW}}
In {{HW}}, big and small Magic Jars can be found by cutting grass, dropped by random enemies, or found in green Pots inside [[Keep]]s. Collecting these will fill up the character's [[Magic Meter|Magic Gauge]] used to activate the [[Focus Spirit]] to unleash a buff on the characters for stronger attacks. Small Magic Jars fill 20% of the Magic Gauge and large Magic Jars will completely fill the Magic Gauge.
{{Noncanon|End}}


Unlike the Heart Containers, however, Magic Containers are very likely to be required to beat the game. The reason for this is that, if Link hasn't managed to increase at all the level of his Magic stat, he would need ''twice'' as many Magic points as his default amount in order to use the [[Spells of The Adventure of Link#Thunder Spell|Thunder Spell]], which is the only attack capable of disabling [[Thunderbird|Thunderbird's]] invulnerability. With the Magic stat at maximum level, Link would still require ''four'' squares from his meter in order to cast the aforementioned Spell (and only under that circumstance would the collection of all Containers be optional). Magic Containers are relatively rare in the game, as they're hidden in secret zones of [[Hyrule]]. Below is a list of their locations:
==Trivia==
*In {{TWW|-}}, two jars similar to the Magic Jars can be found on the table in [[Link's House]].
