Darkness
Darkness is a parallel force to Light in the Kingdom Hearts universe and is also a form of attack from the Kingdom Hearts games. Darkness is commonly associated with evil due to it is naturally deceiving and blinding. Because of it's corrupting power, people can lose their hearts to it, becoming "Heartless". Those that follow the path of darkness (villains such as Maleficent and Xehanort's Heartless) gain enormous power but usually lose much of their physical selves to it. Mickey's Keyblade represents darkness though he personally follows the path of light.
The Dark element is a form of attack used by Heartless, Nobodies, Riku, and some bosses, but not used by Sora, nor his party, except for Riku. Sora and his party may be protected from Darkness attacks by equipping items such as the Midnight Anklet.
