Editing Magic Points

[[Image:DQIII_MP.png|right|border|130px]]
'''Magic Points (MP)''' determine how much mana a character can expend to cast spells. Each spell deducts from this pool at a set rate, and cannot be cast if MP is too low. Some very special spells like [[Magic Burst]] will consume '''all''' remaining MP when cast. Starting with ''[[Dragon Quest VI]]'', skills were introduced that also consumed MP.

In all versions of ''III'', and ''IV'', Wisdom directly determines your character's maximum Magic Points, paralleling the Resilience stat. In all other titles the maximum MP a character has is determined by their level and, if applicable, vocation. Prior to ''Dragon Quest VI'', non-magical characters had no MP pools as they had no use for them, but with the addition of skills, most characters began accumulating an MP pool even if they never learned actual spells. 

Any character can consume a [[seed of magic]] to increase their maximum MP.
