Cure

Cure, Cura, and Curaga magic are spells used by Sora, Donald, and other characters and enemies that utilize the element of Plants. Cure magic makes the target recover an amount of lost HP. In Kingdom Hearts Cure acts very much like a Potion; Cura acts very much like a Hi-Potion; Curaga, despite still needing to choose a target, recovers all party members (very much like a Mega-Potion). It costs 1 MP bar to use. In Kingdom Hearts II, Cure magic is much more powerful and nearly always fully heals its target, gaining an increasingly large area of effect as the spell's level increases; however it also consumes all of the user's MP in one casting.

Other Uses

 * In Kingdom Hearts, Cure names are used to mark the ranks of Cockpit Gummi Blocks
 * Marluxia, No. 11 of Organization XIII, wields the element of flower, which could be similar to Cure's element. However, his usage of the element is the reverse: he induces a gradual death as opposed to healing, as evidenced by his boss fights.
