NOTES

Fata Morgana: Although the english translated name refers to the illusions of the fairy Morgan Le Fay, the Japanese word for "illusion" refers to the illusory powers of a clam monster called the Shen in Chinese. THE MORE YOU KNOW

"Small, Medium, Large": The actual term used is "Pine Bamboo Plum", referring to the respective sizes of those plants. It's an idiom which wasn't translated in Eternal Punishment.

Srishti: "Creation" (Sanskrit)
Sthiti: "Inertia, Preservation" (Sanskrit)
Pralaya: "Destruction" - the great deluge, the end of the entire universe (Sanskrit)

SPELLS

This is basically just a guide so that you can look at a spell and know if it's holy or almighty or whatever, so you can pick Personae accordingly. This guide only has a brief description of the effects of the more unfamiliar spells, especially if they cause a status effect. I'm assuming that you know that Garu is a small wind spell for a single enemy, and Garudyne is a large wind spell for a single enemy, and Maha Garula is a group wind spell, and so on.

I apologize for some of the goofy/weird/long spell names; it's hard to think of an English equivalent to some of the spells.

The cat's out of the bag when it comes to stealing these FAQs, but, well, I really wish you wouldn't!
