Character directory
Sora
Your equipment, abilities and shortcuts determine how he plays. Equip learned abilities explicitly; acquiring one does not guarantee it is active within the available AP.
Donald
Provides offensive magic and healing support. Adjust his behaviour and item access to suit the encounter instead of expecting unlimited emergency healing.
Goofy
Offers physical support and defensive utility. Keep his equipment and abilities current rather than upgrading only Sora throughout the story.
Roxas
The prologue introduces movement and combat before the main journey. Its structure is story-driven; do not expect immediate access to every later party system.
King Mickey
His appearances connect several worlds and major events. Certain encounters can include special assistance, but it should not replace learning the boss’s patterns.
Riku and Kairi
Their story connects Sora’s search across worlds. Late-game appearances and party arrangements are spoilers, so consult the progression guide when you are ready.
Organization XIII
Individual members have distinct fight mechanics. Read reaction-command opportunities and special encounter rules rather than treating them as stronger ordinary enemies.
