"Light!"
—Sora using Faith.
In Kingdom Hearts II, Faith is a singular column that explodes at the base and sends enemies flying.

Faith (ホーリー Hōrī?, lit. "Holy"), sometimes localized as "Holy" or "Pearl", is a technique introduced in Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories. It typically allows the user to attack foes with one or more pillars of light.

Mechanics

 
In Re:Chain of Memories, Holy looks identical to its iteration in Kingdom Hearts II. If no enemies are nearby, the beam of light centers on the caster.

In Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, Holy is a Magic Sleight. In Chain of Memories, it summons a large pillar of light beneath a single target that launches them and any other enemy in its range into the air, dealing heavy damage. In Re:Chain of Memories, it summons a pillar of light around the user, then summons three more sequentially beneath targeted enemies. The pillars have a wide radius, and can damage several enemies at once if they are close together. Its card combination is:

  +   +  

In Kingdom Hearts II, Faith is a Reaction Command usable when Sora is escorting Queen Minnie. When used, Queen Minnie summons a large pillar of light under her and Sora, damaging and knocking away nearby Heartless. King Mickey also has a variation of Holy called Pearl in which he shoots a ball of light at the opponent. He uses Pearl during battles when Sora is defeated.

Holy and its Final Limit in 358/2 Days.

In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Holy is the King's Limit Break. It allows him to summon pillars of light that can be charged with   to become stronger and thicker, eventually creating one huge beam and three thinner ones to surround it. Balls of light hover around the King to attack enemies that get too close to him. The Final Limit allows him to charge his attack into a large flurry of pillars, with two hovering orbs of light that fly outwards from the center.

 
In Birth by Sleep, Faith sends a circle of light pillars outwards to harm enemies.

In Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Faith is an Ultimate magic command exclusive to Ventus that summons pillars of light in a circle around the user, then expels them outwards to damage enemies and restore the user's health. It takes up two slots in the Command Deck, has a maximum level of 6, has a normal reload time of 25 seconds, and fills the Command Gauge by 20%.

 
In Re:coded, Faith looks similar to Kingdom Hearts II's version, however the beams are thinner and less visuals are featured.

In Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, Faith is a Simple Type Finish command used by Data-Sora. Sora spins in a circle while suspended in the air, his Keyblade hovering beside him before he grabs it and summons pillars of light that hit targeted enemies repeatedly.

 
In Dream Drop Distance, Faith remains much the same as in Birth by Sleep, but the pillars of light takes moments to gather on the ground before activating.

In Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, Faith is both a magic command exclusive to Sora and an evolved command for certain Spirits in Flick Rush.

The magic command allows the user to summon a circle of light pillars that spin outwards, dealing light damage. It also restores a small amount of HP as a Cure-based technique, and can therefore be enhanced by equipping Cure Boost. Faith uses two slots in the Command Deck and has a reload time of 40 seconds. It grants +4 to Magic and +30 to Light Resistance when attached to a Dream Eater recipe.

The evolved command deals damage and restores a small amount of HP to the entire party.[?]

In Kingdom Hearts III, Holy is an ability used by King Mickey. It costs 10 MP to perform, deals Neutral damage and has a chance to stun enemies. Like Mickey's Pearl attack in Kingdom Hearts II, Holy takes the form of a ball of light that homes in on enemies.

Origin

Holy is a recurring spell in the Final Fantasy series. In most games, Holy has the distinction of being the only White Magic spell to be used offensively. Its divine power is most effective against both dark-aligned and undead creatures.
