'''Aero''', '''Aerora''', and '''Aeroga''' are a series of [[magic]] introduced in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''. They utilize the "power of wind", and are associated with the {{c|Spirit|item}} and [[Gust]] materials.

In ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', '''Aeroza''' appears as an even more powerful tier.

In ''Kingdom Hearts'', Aero magic is a defensive spell that covers the target in a field of wind, while in later games Aero magic is an offensive spell, using wind to attack.

==Mechanics==
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
In ''Kingdom Hearts'', Aero is defensive magic that can be used by [[Sora]] and [[Donald Duck]]. It creates a wind barrier around the target that halves any damage taken while it is active; however, if the casting animation is interrupted by an enemy attack, the damage from that hit will not be reduced. Aero magic costs 2 [[MP]] to use.

The duration of the barrier is determined by the following formula:
:Duration [seconds] = 18 + (Max MP)
Aerora and Aeroga create more powerful barriers which also inflict damage to enemies on contact. The barrier created by Aeroga also deflects certain attacks.

While it normally offers protection against attacks regardless of deflection capabilities or not, one exception is against the [[Ice Titan]]. Whenever any form of Aero is active, its icicle projectiles increase in size while also not having the damage mitigated (which is thus one instance of the spell working against the user's favor).

===''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''===
[[File:Aero (card).png|right|50px]]
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]'', Aero is a [[magic card]] that can be used by Sora. It creates a brief whirlwind that blows away nearby enemies and inflicts damage.

The Aero card is required for the following sleights:
