Spellfire

Spellfire was the raw energy of the Weave and a very rare magical power. It was highly coveted by many in Faerûn, as it allowed the user to absorb spells cast at them, internally convert it to raw magical energy , and then use it in myriad ways. Spellfire energies could be used to heal, to project destructive bursts of flame from the eyes , to fly , and in rare cases, for a powerful ability known as the Crown of Fire.

Spellfire usually appeared as a font of silver light and healing energy. When used in battle, it looked like a radiant blue-white flame. For a long time, the ability to control spellfire was believed to be unique to a single person each generation, but that was a fallacy: most wielders simply choose to hide their ability in order to avoid getting noticed by powerful organizations such as the Cult of the Dragon.

Spellfire versus Silver Fire
While both spellfire and Silver fire originated from the raw energy of the Weave, they didn't have exactly the same effect. Spellfire was pure raw energy, while silver fire was a power granted to the Chosen of Mystra to channel the Weave's energy in a more subtle way.
