Magic materia icon.
Magic materia is one of five categories of materia in Final Fantasy VII Remake and Episode INTERmission. It is used for materia that will grant magic spells, which can provide offensive potential or healing. Equipping the materia will grant the character a spell in their slot. All spells require MP to use. Magic materia can be linked with 
Support Materia. Offensive spells can deal critical hits.
Many of the magic materia are carried over from Magic Materia in the original Final Fantasy VII, with a few differences and some omissions. The magic materia in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth reused many of the materia.

Etymology[]
Magic or sorcery is an attempt to understand, experience and influence the world using rituals, symbols, actions, gestures and language that are believed to exploit supernatural forces.
Materia means "matter" or "substance" in Latin, Spanish, and Italian; it also means "subject" in Italian and Spanish, and is the root of Portuguese "Matéria".
