====Cloud Magic ====
At level 6 when the game starts, Cloud has a base magic stat of 19. After the first fight, Cloud's magic stat increases with the following distribution:
{| class="wikitable"
! colspan="2" |Cloud's Level 7 Base Magic Stat
|-
|1/8 Chance
| 19
|-
|3/8 Chance
|20
|-
|3/8 Chance
|21
|-
| 1/8 Chance
|22
|}
Note that this is Cloud's base magic stat, not his net magic stat. Since Cloud has Lightning and Ice materia equipped, plus the Buster Sword, his net magic stat is 4 more than his base magic stat.
