History Main / ManaPotion

Usually complements RegeneratingMana in that it can be used in emergencies when the natural regeneration isn't sufficient, and {{Trauma Inn}}s, {{Healing Spring}}s, or {{Healing Checkpoint}}s (which often restore magic as well as health) are inaccessible.

A SubTrope of StandardRPGItems, along with HealingPotion (restores the LifeMeter) and {{Panacea}} that heals StandardStatusEffects.

Note that this doesn't count when spells simply need material components to cast. Then casting more spells simply means getting more of those items. Nor does it count if mana has to be built up to use spells and abilities. Then it's not restoring, but acquiring.

Also note that {{Trauma Inn}}s, {{Healing Spring}}s, and {{Healing Checkpoint}}s often restore magic as well as health.

A SubTrope of StandardRPGItems.

A SisterTrope to RegeneratingMana, HealingPotion (restores the LifeMeter), {{Panacea}} (heals disease and status).

* In ''SuperMarioRPG'', and [[VideoGame/PaperMario the]] [[VideoGame/MarioAndLuigi subsequent]] Mario RPG games, Syrups restore flower points.

* In ''VideoGame/{{Bioshock}}'', this purpose is served by the EVE Hypos. [[HyperactiveMetabolism Consuming certain drinks or smoking]] will also restore small amounts of mana at the expense of health.

* Blue Potions and Blue Herbs, along with a few fruits, serve this purpose in ''VideoGame/RagnarokOnline''. Like the HealingPotions, they can be crafted by all. The Alchemist class is also able to chuck them at allies.

* In ''FortuneSummoners'', 'magic candy' refills your MP.
* In some ''KingdomHearts'', games, enemies can drop balls that restore MP. That is in addition to the Ether potions crossed over from the ''Final Fantasy'' series. In games that don't have MP, but still have some form of ability meter, Ether is instead used to heal that.
* In ''{{Crystalis}}'', the Fruit of Power restores some MP, the Magic Ring restores all of it, and Deo's Pendant gradually restores MP if equipped and the player stands still.

* In the first ''{{Wild ARMs}}'' game a Magic Carrot restores MP (later games had you build up magic).
* In some ''PhantasyStar'' games, Fluids restore MP.

* ''{{VideoGame/Diablo}}''

* ''{{Breath of Fire 3}}'': Equipping an item that reduces AP cost and using transfer on yourself actually heals your MP.

* in ''{{Pokemon}}'' games, you can find various kinds of Ethers in item balls. Some restore part of a move's PP, some restore all of it, and the strongest restore all a move's PP. Especially handy for the Elite Four, and you can't buy them in the shops. Most games since the third let you grow Leppa berries, which do the same thing, making Ethers rather obsolete.
* The ''DragonQuest'' series has vials of magic water that restore different amounts of MP. They're usually very rare and aren't sold in stores, often making them TooAwesomeToUse. There's also the Prayer Ring, an equippable accessory that can be used as an item to recover MP. It can be used multiple times, but each use has a chance of randomly destroying it.
* Mana Leaves/Seeds/Roots/Extracts from the ''ShadowHearts'' trilogy
* In {{Bioshock}}, this purpose is served by the EVE Hypos. [[HyperactiveMetabolism Consuming certain drinks or smoking]] will also restore small amounts of mana at the expense of health.

* Piero's Spiritual Remedy in ''{{Dishonored}}''.

The amount can vary, from just a fraction of a ManaMeter[=/=]one use of a low level spell, to restoring all the magic points or restoring all uses of every level spell. If there is a range of these items, the lower level restoring ones will cost less and be more plentiful in [[InexplicableTreasureChests Treasure Chests]] and [[RandomlyDrops Random Item Dropping]] (although in most games, healing items of the same level tend to be more common).

* in ''{{Pokemon}}'' games, you can find various kinds of Ethers in item balls. Some restore part of a move's PP, some restore all of it, and the strongest restore all a move's PP. Especially handy for the Elite Four, and you can't buy them in the shops.

* In some ''KingdomHearts'', games, enemies can drop balls that restore MP. That is in addition to the Ether potions crossed over from the ''Final Fantasy'' series. Games that don't have MP, but still have some form of ability meter the Ether is instead used to heal that.

* The "Mana Prism", in some ''{{Castlevania}}'' games, restores all magic.

* ''DungeonsAndDragonsOnline'' has the rather expensive Potions of Mnemonic Enhancement, which restore your Spell Points.

* During [[SpiritWorld the Fade]] sections in the ''VideoGame/DragonAge'' series, you often encounter [[AppliedPhlebotinum lyrium]] outcroppings that instantly restore your mana to full.

* In some ''KingdomHearts'', games, enemies can drop balls that restore MP. That is in addition to the Ether potions crossed over from the ''Final Fantasy'' series.

* In ''SuperMarioRPG'', and the subsequent Mario RPG games, Syrups restore flower points.

* {{Breath of Fire 3}}: Equipping an item that reduces AP cost and using transfer on yourself actually heals your mp.

* In ''TheLegendOfZelda'' games that use magic, a green potion restores magic, and a blue potion restores life and magic. Enemies also drop bottle-shaped items that restore magic.
