- The Sorceress Power (in Japanese: ソーサレスパワー Sōsaresupawā) is a special magical energy that separates Sorceresses from normal human beings and it is an important plot element in Final Fantasy VIII. Granted to Sorceresses at the beginning of time by the enigmatic god-like entity known as the Great Hyne, the Sorceress Power is a mysterious gift that enables one to use sorcery naturally without resorting to either a Limit Break, a Guardian Force or a Junction System. The Sorceress Power seems to be an eternal, inexorable power. This phenomena attaches to a person and remains with them until their death, at which point it must be passed on to another sorceress or potential sorceress. This process of transference is dubbed the "Embodiment" (in Japanese: 実施例, Jisshi Rei), wherein a dying Sorceress passes on her powers to a chosen successor who is unable to reject the transfer of power. Once that individual becomes a sorceress she may still be used as a successor for the powers of another Sorceress. A potential sorceress can be rare to find, but is identifiable by people who know what to look for. As an example of their rarity, the Estharian tyrant Sorceress Adel kidnapped hundreds of young girls from all over the world in an attempt to find the one who could be the successor of her power and her "empire". The recipient of the power must be physically close to the sorceress at the time of their death in order to receive it. Due to this event, both Adel and the evil Sorceress Ultimecia are forced to give their power to SeeDs member Rinoa Heartilly and orphanage director Edea Kramer (formerly as "Sorceress Edea"), respectively, even though these people were never the ones they wanted to give the power to. It is uncertain what happens to the sorceress and/or her power if there are no recipients in proximity to them. It is also unknown if the power has a cumulative effect when a sorceress receives more than one sorceress' power, such as in Edea and Rinoa's case. In the Information part of the menu there is a section that can only be unlocked by hacking the game, called "Succession of Sorceress Power", which says: When a sorceress is about to die, she gives her power to the next person who 'inherits' her sorcerous powers. According to Dr. Odine's research, the power tends to weaken with each succession. It is unknown if this section was disabled on purpose, or if it is a mistake; therefore it is unknown if the hypothesis of the power weakening with each succession is canon or not.
