The Bomb Core (ボムの魂, Bomu no Tamashī?), also known as Bomb Arm, Right Arm, or Inferno, is a recurring item in the Final Fantasy series often acquired through enemies like Bombs. It often inflicts heavy Fire-elemental damage or heavy non-elemental damage to all enemies, or otherwise acts like Self-Destruct, killing the user to damage enemies proportionally to their HP.

The right arm of a bomb, a creature that went extinct back in the Age of Myths. It has been completely mummified and a cursed sigil placed on it. It has the slight smell of gunpowder, but its effect is guaranteed.
