Spellweaver
Spellweaver is a technique introduced in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep.
Mechanics
In Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Spellweaver is a Command Style exclusive to Aqua. It is activated by using magic commands, as long as they don't trigger another Command Style. It shrouds the user in a bright blue aura, and allows them to telekinetically control the Keyblade to slowly attack enemies while also enhancing their magic capabilities. The standard combo while attacking is a four-hit combo and the combo finisher consists of her firing a ball of light. The finisher consists of Aqua performing a magical spinning attack, controlled with .
In Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-, Spellweaver is a Style Change activated by using physical attacks. It consists of a six-hit combo, which is noticeably faster than in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. The finisher no longer rapidly drains enemy health, but rather removes chunks of health over time, and now has Aqua create an ice crystal, which she shatters at the technique's end.
In Kingdom Hearts III, Spellweaver is the Formchange of the Master's Defender Keyblade. It has a base duration of 20 seconds and a maximum combo length of 6 for regular attacks, 5 instead for magic attacks. Its mechanics are nearly identical to Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-.
In Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory, Spellweaver is an Ability used by Aqua. It is triggered when activating an Ability Crystal near a grounded enemy, and has Aqua perform an icy spinning attack.
