'''Cure''' is a recurring [[White Magic]] spell in the ''[[Final Fantasy (franchise)|Final Fantasy]]'' games, first appearing in the original ''[[Final Fantasy]]''. It is the most basic healing spell, typically restoring a small amount of [[HP]]. In many games, it can also be used to damage [[undead]] enemies. It is often the first spell learned by users of White Magic. In many of its appearances, Cure has a few upgrades: [[Cura]], which restores a lot of HP, [[Curaga]], which restores most or all HP (depending on the appearance), and sometimes [[Curaja]], which fully restores HP.

In ''Final Fantasy'', Cure (written '''CURE''' in the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] version and '''Cure1''' in ''[[Final Fantasy Origins]]'') is a Level 1 White Magic spell that heals a small amount of HP to a single party member. In earlier versions of the game, the spell always restores 16 to 32 HP. From ''[[Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls]]'' onward, the amount healed scales with the caster's [[Intellect]] and the target's [[Luck]]. In the ''Dawn of Souls'' version and later remakes that utilize [[MP]], Cure costs 3 MP to cast.

Cure is sold in [[Cornelia]] for 100 [[gil]]. In ''Final Fantasy Origins''{{'}}s Easy Mode and all later remakes, the price is lowered to 50 gil. In the ''Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls'' version and other remakes that include the [[Soul of Chaos]] dungeons, Cure can also be purchased in the town of mages within [[Whisperwind Cove]].

Unlike many later entries, in the first ''Final Fantasy'' the scope of a spell cannot be adjusted between single- and multi-target, or between the party and the enemies. There is a separate set of spells for healing the whole party (the [[Heal]] family), and another for damaging undead enemies (the [[Dia]] family). There are three progressively more effective spells in the single-target Cure family: [[Cura]], [[Curaga]], and [[Curaja]].

====''Final Fantasy VIII''====
In ''[[Final Fantasy VIII]]'', Cure is used to restore a small amount of HP to a single target. It can also deal damage to undead, including party members inflicted with the [[Zombie (status)|Zombie]] status. Cure can also be cast twice at once as a possible result of [[Selphie]]'s [[Slot]] [[Limit]].
Cure has a base power of 18, and the amount of HP restored is proportional to the caster's Magic stat.
5 Cures can be [[Refine|refined]] from 1 [[M-Stone Piece]] with the [[Guardian Force|GF]] [[Siren]]'s L Mag-RF ability. 5 Cures can also be refined into 1 Cura with the GF [[Quetzalcoatl|Quezacotl]]'s Mid Mag-RF ability.
In the Steam version of ''Final Fantasy VIII'', Cure is one of the spells with a stack of 100 added to the player's inventory when the [[Magic Booster]] feature is used.
Selphie tries to cast this spell on [[Zell]] in the [[D-District Prison]], but it fails due to the anti-magic field.
Cure has two more powerful variants: Cura and Curaga. There is also a related spell that fully restores the whole party, Full-cure, which appears exclusively as a result of Selphie's Slot Limit.

====''Final Fantasy IX''====
In ''[[Final Fantasy IX]]'', Cure is a basic White Magic spell that restores a minor amount of HP to one or multiple targets. It can also be used to damage undead, including party members with the Zombie condition. [[Eiko]] can cast Cure along with a second White Magic spell with her [[Dbl Wht]] ability during [[Trance]].
Cure has an MP cost of 6 and a base power of 16. The amount of HP healed scales with the caster's Magic stat and level. If the [[Concentrate]] ability is equipped, its restorative power is increased further.
[[Garnet Til Alexandros XVII|Dagger]] and Eiko can learn the spell from a [[Magic Racket]] or a [[Silk Shirt]]. Dagger can also learn it from her initial equipped weapon, a [[Rod (weapon)|Rod]].
While [[Beatrix]] has access to the spell during the second battle against her, she does not when she is temporarily playable.
Cure has two more powerful variants: Cura and Curaga.
