Fairy Circle (フェアリーサークル Feariisaakuru?) is a healing spell in the Tales series. It heals party members almost to full HP, while occasionally damaging opponents.
Arte Description and History[]
Fairy Circle is a mystic arte first used by Raine Sage in the PlayStation 2 and subsequent ports of Tales of Symphonia, obtained after mastering Revitalize. It can be used while Raine is in Over Limit mode and casts Revitalize if the latter has been used at least 150 times. After Raine executes the spell, four butterfly-themed fairies appear in the center of the battlefield and symmetrically fly outward in a spiral pattern until they reach the edge of the battlefield, creating a detailed glyph printed full of runes and leaf-like patterns as they fly. Once the glyph has formed, spheres of light rise up, purifying all party members excluding those that are knocked out by completely restoring their HP and curing them of any status ailments before finally granting them a stat boost in Attack, Defense, and Magic. While party members are being cured and boosted, the circle also flashes with holy energy of the element of Light, damaging every single enemy on the field, unless said enemy is unaffected by Light-elemental magic.
In Tales of the Abyss, Tear Grants can use Fairy Circle as a regular spell when the player casts Healing Circle within a fully-charged Wind or Light FOF Circle. The style of Tear's Fairy Circle is similar to Raine's, but differs in the patterns of runes and leaf-like images. There are also only three fairies that look more like actual fairies than the butterfly-like creatures shown in Raine's version. This version has an area of effect slightly larger than Healing Circle, drastically reduced in range compared to the version in Tales of Symphonia, which affects the entire field. It gradually heals a moderate amount of health within the circle while curing all negative statuses. All enemies within the circle are dealt moderate Wind-elemental damage at the same time.
In Tales of Hearts, Fairy Circle is a Combination Arte, performed by Kohaku Hearts using Air Thrust and Hisui Hearts using Cure. Animation-wise, three fairies appear, each with six wings. In Tales of Hearts R, it is instead used exclusively by Kohaku. Animation-wise, two full-bodied fairies appear, and the glyph is patterned differently.
In Tales of Graces, Fairy Circle is a standard healing spell in Cheria Barnes's repertoire. Her version only summons two fairies to weave the area of effect. In addition, her version has no runes or markings within the circle; rather, it simply produces a rippling effect similar to water. In Tales of Xillia and its sequel, the glyph conjured by Fairy Circle also sprouts flowers, likely a reference to the presence of spirits in Rieze Maxia that allow the continent to be green. This additional animation effect is carried over to Tales of Zestiria and Tales of Berseria.
In Tales of the Rays, Raine's version alters into Sacred Circle when used as the fourth or later action in a chain or during Burst Limits. In Tales of Crestoria, this arte restores 36% of all allies' max HP.
