Below is a list of all the [[Magic]] (sometimes known as '''Spells''') that [[Link]] can learn in {{TAoL}}. In most cases, the effect of the magic will wear off as soon as Link leaves to another room or the scenery changes.<ref>{{cite manual|quote=Magic wears off if the display changes to another.|game= ''Adventure of Link''|pages= 43–44}}</ref> Each [[Magic Container]] holds 16 Magic Points, and each magic uses a different amount of Magic Points.

The '''Shield''' magic is an extremely useful ability that increases Link's defensive abilities (similar to the [[Red Ring]]), reducing the damage he takes by half.<ref>{{cite manual|quote= Raises Link's life level temporarily.

===Jump===
===Jump===
[[File:Jump.png|left]]The '''Jump''' magic makes Link [[jump]] twice as high as before, allowing access to areas that would be otherwise unreachable.<ref>{{cite manual|quote= Using this magic increases Link's jumping power. He can even climb to heights he could not reach with a normal jump.|game= ''Adventure of Link''|pages= 43–44}}</ref> He can learn it by claiming the stolen [[Trophy]] in the [[Tantari Desert]] and taking it to a woman in the [[Town of Ruto]]. This magic is required to get to [[Midoro Palace]], and will surely help the young hero get to other places as well. The magic also increases the width span of Link's jumps, which assists in jumping over deadly pits.

===Life===
===Life===
[[File:Heart.png|left]]The '''Life''' magic recovers some of Link's life energy, and it is one of the magic that uses the most Magic Points. It is probably the most useful magic in the game, as aside from finding rare Fairies or leveling up, it is the only way for Link to recover health when away from towns. By finding a [[Mirror (Item)|Mirror]] under a table in a house in the [[Water Town of Saria]], Link can then take it to the woman who lost said mirror. In return, the woman allows him into her house to meet the Old Man who teaches him this magic. While the Life magic only recovers approximately three squares of life energy, it will surely save Link's life many times.<ref>{{cite manual|quote= This can recover Link's LIFE points (but only to a certain extent!).

===Fairy===
[[File:FairyTAoL.png|right]][[File:Fairy.png|left]]The '''Fairy''' magic is a unique ability that temporarily turns Link into a [[Fairy]]. While Link can't attack enemies in his fairy form and leaves him defenseless to enemy attacks, he'll have some great advantages in it. The ability to fly will help Link get into high places and cross dangerous pits of water or lava,<ref>{{cite manual|quote= Magic which makes you a fairy. You can fly by using this.|game=''Adventure of Link''|pages=43–44}}</ref> and the small size of a fairy will enable him to get through small holes. When he activates the magic in a palace, he can fly through the keyholes of locked doors.

In order to obtain this magic, Link must find the [[Potion#Water of Life|Water of Life]] in a swamp cave to the west of Midoro Palace and bring it to an [[Old Woman]] in the [[Harbor Town of Mido]]. It is required to enter the [[Island Palace]].

===Fire===

[[File:Fire.png|left]]The '''Fire''' magic is useful when it comes to defeating tough enemies such as [[Tektite]]s.

[[File:Thunderspell.png|left]]The '''Thunder''' magic is one of the most important magical abilities in the game. It is the only way to cause [[Thunderbird]]'s face to appear, which is its weak spot.

It has been suggested that this article be moved to Magic.
This page either already exists and is preventing the move, or the move may be either controversial or entail multiple edits. Please discuss this on this article's talk page.
Magic, also known as Spells,[citation needed] are abilities in The Adventure of Link. In most cases, the effect of the magic will wear off as soon as Link leaves to another room or the scenery changes.[1] Each Magic Container holds 16 Magic Points, and each magic uses a different amount of Magic Points. Link will learn these eight magical powers from old men in different towns, typically as a reward for a specific task.
The Shield magic is an ability that increases Link's defensive abilities, reducing the damage he takes by half.[2]
Jump
The Jump magic makes Link jump twice as high as before, allowing access to areas that would be otherwise unreachable.[3] He can learn it by claiming the stolen Trophy in the Tantari Desert and taking it to a woman in the Town of Ruto. This magic is required to get to Midoro Palace, and will surely help the young hero get to other places as well. The magic also increases the width span of Link's jumps, which assists in jumping over deadly pits.
The Fairy magic is a unique ability that temporarily turns Link into a Fairy, allowing him to fly and get into high places, cross dangerous pits of water or lava, and get through small holes.
The Thunder magic is used to cause Thunderbird's face to appear, which is its weak spot.
Magic Points
Below is the cost of each magic according to each Experience level. Note that one Magic Container (a single block on Link's Magic Meter) is equivalent to 16 Magic Points.
