Silence (Final Fantasy VIII status)

Silence is a status in Final Fantasy VIII. Silence disables the Magic, Draw, and GF commands. Rinoa is immune to this status during her Angel Wing Limit Break. The effect remains indefinitely until healed, even outside of battle. The afflicted has a speech bubble with "..." above their head.
Silence can be useful against enemies that cast hazardous spells. However, most bosses are immune, though Silence will work on Propagators and some of the Sorceresses. Inflicting Silence on a Behemoth, they cannot perform their final attack.
