Independent Materia (独立, Dokuritsu?) is a subset of Materia in Before Crisis -Final Fantasy VII-. Much like Independent Materia throughout the Final Fantasy VII series, it provides character boosts without needing to be paired with another Materia. Unlike the other releases, however, it does not provide auto-abilities with as strong an effect as other Materia, and is mostly used for stat boosts.
