Ability

This article is about the attacks from Kingdom Hearts χ[chi] and Kingdom Hearts Dark Road. You may be looking for the attacks from Kingdom Hearts Unchained χ / Union χ.

An Ability (アビリティ, Abiriti) is an attack attached to Cards in Kingdom Hearts χ[chi] and Kingdom Hearts Dark Road.

In Kingdom Hearts Dark Road, all Cards have abilities which determine the strength and effect of the Card. Each ability has an element and power stat. Only the ability of the first Card selected will activate. If the other two Cards played have the same color, the power of the first Cards is multiplied. If one of the two Cards is the same color, the first Card's power gets multiplied by x1.1, if all three Cards are the same color, the first Card's power gets multiplied by x2.0. When playing Cards, Light and Dark colors are counted as the same color, so playing a Light Green Card and two Dark Green Cards gives a x2.0 multiplier.

Cards have one of three types: Physical, Magic, or Support. Physical Cards deal damage relative to Xehanort's Strength stat, Magic Cards deal damage relative to Xehanort's Magic stat, and Support Cards have supportive effects.
