Support materia (支援, Shien?) is a subset of materia in Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-. Much like its equivalent in Final Fantasy VII, support materia adds various effects to augment the currently equipped Magic or Command Materia. There are fewer Support Materia in Crisis Core than in Final Fantasy VII.

Light blue (VIICC Light Blue Materia Icon) indicates the support ability relates to statuses or elements, while dark blue (VIICC Dark Blue Materia Icon) indicates it relates to Soldier Points.
