Mother's variation of Magicant takes place in [[Maria]]'s mind, with her world being characterized by light green rivers and a pink cloud-like ground. [[Ninten]] arrives here via a mysterious rock-like object outside of [[Podunk]], and can warp back any time using the [[List of key items in Mother#Onyx Hook|Onyx Hook]] he obtains in [[Magicant Underground]]. There are many things here, such as shops selling the only defensive equipment in the game, a hospital and hotel free of charge; and the [[Mysterious Goods-Keeper]] that Ninten can give items to for storing, and the [[Mysterious Mimicker]] that acts as a save point. There is also an abundance of [[List of miscellaneous items in Mother#Red Weed|Red Weed]]s in Magicant, which when taken to [[Queen Mary]]'s Fountain, will turn into [[List of recovery items in Mother#Magic Herb|Magic Herb]]s. Magicant is destroyed after reminding Queen Mary a [[Eight Melodies|certain song]] that used to be sung to [[Giygas|Giegue]] and finally resting in peace.
'''Magicant''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|マジカント|Majikanto}}''' ''Magicant'') is a location in ''[[EarthBound Beginnings]]''. It is a world that was created and resides in [[Maria]]'s mind and is ruled by her. [[Ninten]] first accesses this world by reading a passage of [[George]]'s diary in front of a mysterious pink rock known as "God's tail"<ref>https://forum.starmen.net/forum/Mother/1/27990</ref> in a cave, and he can return at anytime by using the [[Onyx Hook]].
 
In ''[[EarthBound]]'' there also exists a variation {{eb|Magicant}}, however it is different from this Magicant.
 
==Overview==
[[File:MagicantMother.png|thumb|185px|Magicant's starting point in ''[[EarthBound Beginnings]]'']]
''EarthBound Beginnings''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s variation of Magicant takes place in [[Maria]]'s mind, with her world being characterized by light green rivers and a pink cloud-like ground. There are many things here, such as shops selling the only defensive equipment in the game, a hospital and hotel free of charge; and the [[Mysterious Goods-Keeper]] that Ninten can give items to for storing, and the [[Mysterious Mimicker]] that acts as a save point. There is also an abundance of [[List of miscellaneous items in Mother#Red Weed|Red Weed]]s in Magicant, which when taken to [[Queen Mary]]'s Fountain, will turn into [[Magic Herb]]s. With the [[Onyx Hook]] that is obtained in [[Magicant Underground]], the player can return to Magicant anytime.
 
==Points of interest==
===Queen Mary's Castle===
{{Main|Queen Mary's Castle}}
[[File:QueenMarysCastleExterior.png|thumb|185px|Queen Mary's Castle]]
The castle where Queen Mary resides. In here there are many rooms, some are empty and some have items. The player can speak to Queen Mary who wants the remember a [[Eight Melodies|song]] that she used to sing.
 
===Queen Mary's fountain===
[[File:MagicantWell.png|thumb|Queen Mary's Fountain]]
To the west of the castle is a fountain. Here, the player can use [[telepathy]] to summon the Benevolent Old Man, who acts as an ATM for the player to withdraw money (In Mother he instead is a healer for status ailments such as poison or stone). The player can also put a Red Weed into the fountain, turning it into a Magic Herb.
 
===Flying Man house===
To the north of Queen Mary's Castle is a house containing five [[Flying Men]]. Upon spoken to one will assist the player in any battle throughout Magicant until he dies, then a gravestone will appear next to the house for each Flying Man who was killed in battle. Once all five Flying Men are killed they're all gone.
 
===Others===
[[File:MagicantHospital.png|thumb|64px|Magicant Hospital]]
The north west section of the town has a hospital and a hotel. The hospital will restore heal any player with full HP and cure any status condition, including [[unconsciousness]].
 
The hotel functions identically to the hotels in the real world and can be used for free. Resting in it will restore all party members to full health including Flying Man.
 
The shops are located in the north east section of town. Each individual shop sells different items: the shopkeeper in blue sells [[coin]]s, the shopkeeper in pink sells [[ring]]s (bracelets in Mother), and the shopkeeper in red sells [[pendant]]s.
 
Outside of town in the forest to the left has a house with a guitarist who gives hints to where each of the [[Eight Melodies|melodies]] are located.


===Items===
==History==
*[[List of recovery items in Mother#Big Bag|Big Bag]]
[[Ninten]] arrives here via using [[telepathy]] on a mysterious rock-like object outside of [[Podunk]]. He hears a voice speaking into his mind, asking for a “password”, saying "Who has lost its tail?" (Japanese: "Where is God's tail?"), then, by reading a passage from the Great Grandfather's diary, he warps into Magicant. He then goes to Queen Mary's Castle where he meets Queen Mary, who is the ruler of Magicant. She begs Ninten to learn a [[Eight Melodies|certain song]] she used to sing that is 8 notes long. Later, after Ninten collects all 8 of the notes, he and his friends return to Magicant to sing the song to Queen Mary (in the original Famicom version he instead returns to Magicant after collecting the 7th melody, then sings it to Queen Mary who remembers the 8th melody on her own). Upon hearing the full song, Queen Mary remembers that she is [[George]]'s wife [[Maria]], and that she raised [[Giegue]] as a child. She then joins her husband George in heaven, and in the process Magicant disappears.

Magicant from ''EarthBound Beginnings'' appears as a stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'', although it also has minor references to ''EarthBound''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s as well. The main feature in this stage are the Flying Men which assist the first player to reach them. They will fight for the player until they get KO'd. Similar to how they work in the EarthBound games, there are five in all, and once all five are defeated, none will respawn. In the background is a "rip" in the sky, showing scenes from Ninten and Ness's adventure. Other elements include a tree, a [[Mobile Sprout]], a giant tomato, the [[Sky Runner]], an octopus statue, and the [[Dungeon Man]]. Magicant also returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' and received a large graphical update. Gameplay wise, it is identical to its appearance in the 3DS version of ''Smash 4''. Oddly Queen Mary's Castle is absent in both games it appears in.

In EarthBound, it appears and is created when [[Ness]] successfully gathers the [[Eight Melodies]] of the world. Ness's Magicant has illusions of friends and enemies he's met on his journey, and old memories of his family, friends, and the younger versions of himself. His Magicant also changes color depending on who he talks to, and it can be reverted back by talking to sunflowers or walking out of a building. It has a hotel free of charge, and a shop that only sells [[Pendant|Earth Pendants]] and Magic pudding. There is also the [[Sea of Eden]], which Ness must travel through to reach his [[Ness's Nightmare|nightmare]] and conquer the evil in his mind once and for all. It can be inferred that Ness's Magicant is destroyed after clearing his mind of evil, similar to how Maria's Magicant was destroyed.
