''Kingdom Hearts'' features a mixture of familiar Disney and ''Square Enix'' characters, nearly all of them coming from the ''Final Fantasy'' series, as well as several new characters designed and created by Tetsuya Nomura. Though the series features locations unique to the ''Kingdom Hearts'' franchise, worlds from Disney films are heavily explored. Sora must visit these worlds and interact with popular Disney characters to protect them from enemies. Often, Sora's actions in these worlds follow closely to the stories featured in their accompanying Disney films. However, in later games in the series, there is less focus on the ''Final Fantasy'' aspects and more focus on the ''Kingdom Hearts'' characters, instead making small nods and references to ''Final Fantasy''. In one of the dialogues, Donald Duck tells Sora not to interfere with the worlds too much, since such interference would cause problems. [[Moogle]]s, small creatures from the ''Final Fantasy'' series, are another common element in the games. They provide the player with synthesis shops in order to create items for use in the game.
