Spirit [[Dream Eater]]s act as Sora and Riku's party members and are synthesized out of [[Dream Piece]]s. They each have different stats, abilities, and [[Ability Link]] boards. The new [[Link System]] allows characters to perform powerful techniques with Spirits. When selecting a New Game Plus, Spirits carry over with their stats, only their levels are put to 1, and their Ability Link panels are reset.

Up to three Spirits can be brought into the party at a time, and only two fight alongside Sora or Riku. Spirit positions can be changed within the party by dragging their icons around on the touch screen, replaced with an additional menu panel in ''Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance HD''. In the "Spirits" tab of the pause menu, Spirits can be placed in and out of the party; experience is only awarded to those in the party. Pressing {{button|shoulderl}} and {{button|shoulderr}} simultaneously will warp Spirit Dream Eaters to Sora's or Riku's side. Spirits are incapable of dealing the final blow in forced boss or event battles.

In the "Spirits" tab of the pause menu, Spirits can be placed in and out of the party; experience is only awarded to those in the party. Pressing {{button|shoulderl}} and {{button|shoulderr}} simultaneously or {{button|l3}} will warp Spirit Dream Eaters to Sora's or Riku's side. Spirits are incapable of dealing the final blow in forced boss or event battles.


If a Spirit Dream Eater's HP falls to zero, the Dream Eater is knocked out and a timer on their icon is displayed, slowly going down from 30 to 0. Once at 0, the Dream Eater expires and drops a [[Dream Piece]], and the third Dream Eater automatically takes their place in combat. Sora or Riku can prevent the Dream Eater from expiring by approaching it and using [[Rescue]] by repeatedly pressing {{button|DSA}} / {{button|x}} until the displayed gauge is full, reviving the Dream Eater with half HP. The first instance of Rescue requires 11 button presses; each subsequent knock out in the same battle or area will require an additional 10 button presses. If a boss battle ends, the character drops, or the character or moves to another area while a Dream Eater is knocked out, it will automatically get revived with half HP. If the character goes to a save point, the knocked out dream eaters will be revived with their HP fully restored.
