Gravity, Gravira, and Graviga magic are attacks used by Sora, Donald, and other characters and enemies that utilize the element of Weight and Darkness.

Gravity creates a dark sphere to temporarily flatten all enemies in range and deal damage equal to a fraction of their current HP. The fraction varies depending on both the level of the spell and Sora's magic strength; if he is powerful enough, it can take away 100% or more of an enemy's HP, essentially being an instant kill on any enemy not resistant. Unfortunately, all bosses are resistant to Gravity, as are most enemies in the later stages of the game (though normal enemies only take slightly less damage, and it's possible to instantly kill even them).

Gravity only appeared in Kingdom Hearts. It was replaced by Magnet in Kingdom Hearts II.

Gravity magic is classified as Advanced Magic.

Trivia

  • The unattainable fourth tier gravity spell as appearing in Final Fantasy titles is Gravija, though it usually appears as an enemy skill unavailable to player characters.
  • In Final Fantasy titles, this spell is sometimes called Demi.
  • Based upon one's choices at the beginning of the game, gravity magic has the potential to be especially effective against boss characters due to the high percentage-based damage it is able to inflict under certain circumstances.
