===''[[Final Fantasy Type-0]]''=== Magic is a power usually granted by the [[Crystal (Type series)|Crystals]] of [[Orience]], and the [[Vermilion Bird Crystal]] specializes in it, bestowing the gift of magic onto the citizens of the [[Dominion of Rubrum]]. Magic is susceptible to the [[Militesi Empire|Militesi]] [[crystal jammer]], which prevents people from drawing power from their Crystal in its vicinity. [[Class Zero]] can wield magic without the Crystal due to having been augmented by [[Arecia Al-Rashia]], and draw the power from their [[Heart (Fabula Nova Crystallis)|hearts]] by the force of [[phantoma]] instead. People's magical powers wane once they become adults, but it is unknown if this also extends into the use of phantoma rather than the powers of the Crystal. Arecia is the archsorceress of Rubrum and one of the most powerful people in [[Orience]], although she doesn't flaunt her prowess often. One of the magical powers used by the dominion citizens is command over [[Eidolon (Type-0)|Eidolons]], and Arecia's [[Bahamut ZERO]] is perhaps the most powerful of them all. [[l'Cie]] are servants of the Crystals who grant them incredible strength and the ability to wield magic. However, many view this as the l'Cie sacrificing their humanity. Magic is researched in [[Akademeia]]'s [[Sorcery Division]]. Different spells are analyzed and reformulated day and night, and the findings taught to individuals enrolled as [[Agito Cadet]]s who seek to actualize their magic potential. ====History of magic within the Dominion of Rubrum==== "Unto Orience came the Crystal of the Vermilion Bird, to guide the children of Rubrum and bestow the great task upon them" is an ancient verse that still guides the Vermilion Peristylium. The creed was initially known to the few who desired to become [[Agito (term)|Agito]], a figure of legend said to be able to open the path to the heavens. Housing the Vermilion Bird Crystal under a humble schoolhouse, in 100 years the word of the verse spread to settlements far and wide, and the school expanded into a grand institution to be known as Akademeia. About a century after the unification and official establishment of the Dominion of Rubrum the separation of magic from religious faith was made official. With the establishment of the Sorcery Division, the study of magic saw leaps in progress; while spells were traditionally taught from individual to individual, categorization and classification helped provide a lexicon of spells to anyone with magical power. Rubrum's military helped stabilize and unify spellcraft by developing units that would specialize in certain types of magic. {{Endspoiler}}
