The amount of damage caused by an individual spell is governed by the spell's base power combined with either the caster's max MP (in ''Kingdom Hearts'') or magic power (in ''Kingdom Hearts II'') through a set formula, in addition to any elemental strengths or weaknesses possessed by the target of the spell coupled with any [[ability|abilities]] that boost the power of certain element. | The amount of damage caused by an individual spell is governed by the spell's base power combined with either the caster's max MP (in ''Kingdom Hearts'') or magic power (in ''Kingdom Hearts II'') through a set formula, in addition to any elemental strengths or weaknesses possessed by the target of the spell coupled with any [[ability|abilities]] that boost the power of certain element. | ||
Each standard magic power, with the exception of Holy, appears in three tiers of increasing power denoted by a particular suffix appended to the end of the spell's name. Base-tier spells bear no special suffix, but set the precedent for the names of other spells of the same element. Second-tier spells generally append ''-ra'' or ''-ara'', sometimes dropping the final syllable of the original spell (cf. Blizzard > Blizzara; Reflect > Reflera etc., whereas third-tier spells will generally append ''-ga'', ''-aga'' or ''-ega''. Once he has acquired all of the first-tier spells in ''Kingdom Hearts'', [[Merlin]] will present Sora with the [[Spellbinder]] Keyblade. | Each standard magic power, with the exception of Holy, appears in three tiers of increasing power denoted by a particular suffix appended to the end of the spell's name.

A pair of negative suffixes -gun and -agun, make an appearance in the battles against the [[Volcanic Lord]] and the [[Blizzard Lord]], and are seen in fourth-level magic armor. They do not appear to have originated with ''Final Fantasy'' titles, but rather to be exclusive to the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series, though whether or not these are spells is debatable. | A pair of negative suffixes -gun and -agun, make an appearance in the battles against the [[Volcanic Lord]] and the [[Blizzard Lord]], and are seen in fourth-level magic armor.

*In ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', Donald has a sleight called '''Magic''' in which he casts two spells, either Fire, Blizzard, Thunder or Cure. The power of the spells depends on how many Donald cards were stocked. If two Donald cards are stocked, then Donald will perform two second-tier spells, either Fira, Blizzara, Thundara or Cura. If three Donald cards are stocked, then Donald will perform two third-tier spells, either Firaga, Blizzaga, Thundaga, or Curaga. | *In ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', Donald has a sleight called '''Magic''' in which he casts two spells, either Fire, Blizzard, Thunder or Cure.

*The suffixes '''-ra''' and '''-ga''' are only applied to second and third tier spells, respectively in the English, Italian, German and Japanese versions of the ''Kingdom Hearts'' games. In the French version, the second form is noted with a plus (+) sign, while the third is noted with an X. The suffix -'''gun''', present in all accessories with that suffix (Firagun Armlet, for instance), is often represented as XX. In the Spanish version, the suffix '''-ga''' is noted with two plus signs (++). | |||
