magic
Final Fantasy VIII has a set of magicks which also apply to FFVIII-2. These magicks can be drawn from draw points (like springs) around the world and also from beasts. The general rule is, the tougher the beast and the more battle experience your character is, the more likely they are to draw better magic. This almost completely eliminates the chances of a student who rarely even leaves Balamb Island from obtaining powerful magicks. Also, a potentially powerful magick won't be strong unless the wielder him/herself has strong magic junctioned to his/her MAG junction, which requires GF, (if you don't understand this, don't worry) and has a lot of combat experience. Apply this when fighting in RP otherwise it will be deemed as power-playing (which is a major break of the rules).Here is a list of magicks from Final Fantasy VIII: N.B. The 'Draw from' table lists monsters excluding bosses (with the exception of some creature bosses)
