Aerora is the second tier spell from the Wind Materia. It deals medium magical wind damage to a target and costs one ATB segment to cast. If the character casting the spell has unlocked their wind-elemental weapon ability (e.g. Wind Current for Cloud), Aerora becomes Aerora α, which is not more powerful than normal a Aerora spell, but will bestow a wind-elemental sphere to the spellcaster for the rest of the battle (unless the player changes the element with Fire α etc.) that will circle their character model and will supplement small magical wind-elemental damage when defending against certain enemy attacks (perfect-blocking not needed) and when using ATB abilities. It is not the same effect as imbuing a character's weapon with elements via Elemental Materia, however. The attacks from the "wind sphere" do build stagger and can be critical hits.
