ELEMENTAL PROPERTIES:
---------------------
F = Fire, I = Ice, L = Lightning, A = Air,
W = Water, E = Earth, H = Holy, P = Poison,
C = Curative

Notation ... W,L:500
Would mean that this spell is both
water and lightning-elemental and
causes 500 damage. This spell's
damage would be affected by both
lightning AND water-damage altering
effects.

- If a target is weak against an element, the damage
done by a spell with that elemental property will
be doubled after randomization (see below).

- If a target has "50% Dmg" vs. an element, the damage
done by a spell with that elemental property will
be halved after randomization.

- If a target has "No effect" vs. an element, the damage
done by a spell with that elemental property will
always be zero.

- If a target has "Absorb" on an element, the damage
done by a spell with that elemental property will
be added to the target's HP instead of subtracted
after randomization.

- If a target has the "Float" property, all earth-
elemental spells will miss.

- If a target has the "Undead" property, all spells
with the "Cure" property will cause damage rather
than heal. All spells with the "Poison" property
will heal the undead target. Instant death spells
completely heal an Undead, and Life spells instantly
kill it.

- Moreover, Undead creatures will always be on the
"good end" of a draining spell (i.e., they will
always get HP from it; if Drain is cast on an undead
creature, the caster will LOSE HP and the undead
will gain, unless the caster is also undead).

- There are some other status ailments in the game
which don't appear in the instruction booklet:
*SEIZURE is like Poison, except it only lasts until
the battle is over (if untreated). It can be healed
with the Remedy spell or a Remedy item.
*CHARM is like Muddle, except it is uncurable. The
only way Charm will go away is if PETRIFY or WOUNDED
is set over it.
*FROZEN is like Stop, except it lasts longer and can
only be healed by targetting the afflicted character
with a fire-elemental spell.
*HP LEAK is like Seizure, except it cannot be cured,
except by setting PETRIFY or WOUNDED, which remove
all other status alterations.

"@ 1" means the spell can be directed towards a single target.

"@ 1/a" means the spell can be directed towards either a single
target, or towards multiple targets. If multiple targeting
occurs, the damage done is divided by the number of targets
before it is randomized. (see below for details)

"all(s)" means the spell targets every opponent and that the
damage calculated is split between all the targets before
it is randomized.

"all(e)" means the spell targets every opponent and that the
damage calculated is done to every target (rather than split)
before it is randomized.

An "all(e)" spell with the same statistics as an "all(s)" spell
will be stronger. For instance, take this example:
Spell 1 = DMG:6600 @ all(e) [EXACTLY]
Spell 2 = DMG:6600 @ all(s) [EXACTLY]

SPELL DAMAGE TO 1 TARGET DAMAGE TO 2 DAMAGE TO 3
----- ------------------ ----------- -----------
Spell 1 6600 6600 to #1 6600 to #1
6600 to #2 6600 to #2
6600 to #3
Spell 2 6600 3300 to #1 2200 to #1
3300 to #2 2200 to #2
2200 to #3

"[EXACTLY]" means a spell's damage is NOT randomized.

"unf." means the spell is unfocused -- it will hit all enemies
and all allies.

"ally" means the spell can target only allies.
An enemy is anyone on the opposite side of the battlefield,
and and ally is anyone on the same side.
A charmed or confused enemy is still an enemy.
A charmed or confused ally is still an ally.

"{N.M.}" means the spell never misses and cannot be blocked.

+ = addition
- = subtraction
* = multiplication
/ = division

(x, y) = A random number between x and y

[ x ] = The greatest integer less than or equal to X

RHP = Remaining HP
RMP = Remaining MP
MHP = Maximum HP

DMG = Damage done by this spell ignores the target's
Magic Defense.

MM = Magic Multiplier. I'm not sure exactly how the two stats Mag Def
and Level are integrated to form this number, but it's something
to the effect of [Caster's Mag Pwr / 32] * (Caster's Level).

When damage from a spell is calculated, the spell's constant
number is multiplied by the MM. Call this number "N". Damage
is then calculated by randomizing:
DAMAGE = ([N - N/8], [N + N/8])
That is, the damage dealt will be equal to a random number between
N minus 1/8th of N and N plus 1/8th of N.

Example of how to read the chart:
---------------------------------
MM = 94

"Fire 3" spell = "F:72*MM"
Means: Fire 3 is fire-elemental (F)
In order to find the "N" value for Fire 3, multiply
the MM by 72.

ONE TARGET
----------
72 * 94 = N = 6768 N/8 = 6768/8 = 846
6768 - 846 = 5922; 6768 + 846 = 7614.

Damage (call this number D), will be a random number between 5922
and 7614 before reduction by the Magic Defense of the target.

NOTE: When spells are cast on you, damage is reduced by a formula
involving your "Mag Def" stat:

Target's Target's
FINAL DAMAGE = D - ([Level* MagDef] - 256, [Level * MagDef] + 256)

Most enemies have a Mag Def of zero, but a few enemies, like Boxed Set,
Goblin and Figaliz, do have signficant Mag Def numbers.

THREE TARGETS
-------------
For a variable targeting spell, we must divide N by the number of
targets in the multiple target scenario. Thus,

3N = 6768
N = 2256

The three targets will each then be randomized individually with
N equal to 2256.

This lists all 254 magic attacks included in Final Fantasy III.

You can access any of these spells using the Game Genie code, **00-8D68
(or **A0-8D68).
Merely replace ** with the two alphanumerics in the "GG" column of the
chart, and Strago's Lore menu will consist of that spell, plus the 23
following spells in the chart. I've also included base 10 index numbers
to facilitate your counting :).

Codes which might also be helpful:
* 2694-EFDB / 2624-EFDB .... Target anyone with any spell (very useful)
* F19A-8708 / F12A-8708 .... Learn all Lores after one battle

-GG is the two-letter Game Genie combination to obtain the spell in the
first slot of Strago's menu.
-DEC is the corresponding decimal value of the "GG"
-SPELL NAME is the spell's name, not surprisingly
-EFFECT gives the spell's effects or, when applicable, the damage
formula for that spell's damage and its elemental affiliation.
