Damage Syphon

Damage Syphon (ダメージアスピル, Damēji Asupiru^?, lit. "Damage Aspir"), also called MP Rage, is an ability introduced in Kingdom Hearts. It allows the user to recover their ability-fueling gauge when damage is taken. Equipping multiple copies increases the effect. The greater the damage, the greater the recovery.
