Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance

Spirit Dust (Japanese: 精霊の粉 Spirit powder) is a stat-boosting item in the Fire Emblem series, which debuted in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and has appeared in every game except one since (the exception being Echoes: Shadows of Valentia). It permanently boosts a user's Magic stat when used. It is the successor to the Magic Ring item from the Jugdral games and one of two successors to the Energy Ring from the GBA games.
