| + | '''[[Magic Medallions]]''' might refer to any of the following items in {{ALttP}}: |
||
| − | The '''Magic Medallions''' are three items that give [[Link]] to ability to cast magic spells. Each of the Medallions targets every enemy on screen, but each have varying effects, and some enemies are immune to the effects of certain Medallions. All three spells center around using the [[Master Sword]], and as such, Link cannot use them unless he has the Master Sword or its upgraded versions. In {{FSA}}, when a Medallion is tossed onto the battlefield by one of the [[Links]], it eradicates all enemies in the entire area. |

||
| − | The '''Ether Medallion''' can be found across a bridge west of the [[Tower of Hera (A Link to the Past)|Tower of Hera]]. A green tablet identical to the one found in front of [[Desert Palace (A Link to the Past)|Desert Palace]] can be found there. Link requires the [[Book of Mudora]] to translate its message. It instructs Link to raise his Master Sword to the heavens. Once he does so, the lightning-based spell is cast, destroying the tablet as a result. Then, the Ether Medallion falls from the sky into Link's hands. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Ether attacks through the atmosphere, as flying enemies appear to be the most affected. Most enemies who are not destroyed by the initial pulse of lightning and pressure are frozen, as if they were struck by the [[Ice Rod]]. Ether's atmosphere-altering capabilities can be used to clear the rain in [[Misery Mire (A Link to the Past)|Misery Mire]]. |

||
| − | The '''Quake Medallion''' can be found in the [[Lake of Ill Omen]], where a circle of stones in the water lies. By throwing a [[rock]] into the circle, Link will awaken the [[Catfish]], who will offer him the Medallion in order to be left alone. This is the only Medallion that Link does not activate upon receiving it. |

| − | The Quake Medallion causes an earthquake resulting from Link thrusting the Master Sword into the ground. It only affects ground-bound enemies, generally either destroying them or turning them into [[Slime]]. Using the Quake Medallion near certain [[tree]]s will cause them to yield various items, as if Link ran into them with his [[Pegasus Boots]]. The Quake Medallion is needed to open the passage to [[Turtle Rock (A Link to the Past)|Turtle Rock]]. |

||
| − | The '''Bombos Medallion''' can be found in the [[Desert of Mystery]], high upon a cliff that can only be reached by traveling to the [[Dark World]] and using the [[Magic Mirror]] near the swamp. As with Ether, it is obtained via a green tablet which can only be read with the Book of Mudora. The spell is cast once the Master Sword is raised, with the tablet breaking afterwards. The Medallion then falls from the sky. |

| − | With an enchanted [[Spin Attack]], Link sends out a ring of [[fire]] followed by a series of small explosions in all directions. This causes all enemies to become inflamed, as if they have been struck with the [[Fire Rod]]. Additionally, fewer enemy types are immune. This is the only Medallion which is not required for Link to progress through his quest. |

| − | ==Trivia== |
||
| − | *In the German version of ''Four Swords Adventures'', each Medallion is associated to an element: the Ether, Quake, and Bombos Medallions are instead known as the Air, Earth, and Fire Medallions, respectively. In France and Italy, the Bombos Medallion is known as the "Flame Medallion." |
||
| − | *The Catfish and the Quake Medallion it gives may be a reference to the {{wp|Namazu (Japanese mythology)|Namazu}}, a giant catfish said to have created powerful earthquakes that became trapped beneath a stone.<ref>{{Cite web|quote= |author= |published= July 16, 2014|retrieved=September 12, 2014|url= http://youtu.be/sis8y5K3g7k|title= The TRUTH of Zelda: A Link to the Past's Catfish - Culture Shock|site= YouTube|type=}}</ref> |
||
| − | *The effect of the Quake Medallion is similar to that of the [[Magic of The Adventure of Link#Spell|Spell]] from {{TAoL}}, in that the Spell turns enemies not immune to its effects into [[Bot]]s. |
||
| − | *The three [[Spells of Ocarina of Time|Spells]] in {{OoT}} could have originated from these Medallions. Both are trios, are obtained outside of [[Dungeons]], and use up more [[Magic Power]] than any other items or abilities in their respective game. |
||
| − | *The [[symbols]] on the Bombos Medallion resembles the symbol on the [[Forest Medallion]] from ''Ocarina of Time''. |
