Aura (status)

Aura also known as Embrava, is a recurring positive status effect in the Final Fantasy series. It generally enhances the user's battle capabilities in some manner.
== Appearances ==
=== Final Fantasy III ===
=== Final Fantasy VIII ===
Aura is granted through the use of the Aura spell or Aura Stone, as well as a Crisis Level 3 or 4 Mighty Guard. It grants 200 points to the player's Crisis Level, effectively allowing them to use Limit Breaks without having to be in HP Critical or afflicted with status ailments. Aura can also be used on or by opponents, which causes their strength to temporarily increase and may allow them to use new abilities. As a sign of Aura, the affected characters glow gold. The effect is removed with Dispel.
=== Final Fantasy XI ===
Embrava is granted through the use of the Embrava spell for the Scholar. At the present time the status gives substantial Haste, Regen, and Refresh effects. It cannot be dispelled and is removed only by death or receiving the Kaustra status, which overwrites it.
Prior to the March 2013 update, the Embrava status effect originally bestowed a Regain effect onto targets, allowing players to gain TP at a faster rate. In order to de-emphasize "zerg tactics" from players, the Regain effect was replaced with the Refresh effect.
=== Final Fantasy Type-0 ===
Aura doubles the damage of a party member's physical attacks.
=== Dissidia Final Fantasy ===
Aura is granted by the Bahamut summon. Aura grants the player boosts to their Bravery every second, in increments of 20 for the automatic version and 40 for the manual version, for a period of 50 seconds for the automatic version and 33 seconds for the manual version.
==== Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy ====
Aura is the effect of the Bahamut summon, but with accelerated effect. The automatic version grants +75 Bravery a second and the manual version +99 a second, both lasting 20 seconds.
Laguna's EX Mode is a reference to the Aura effects of Final Fantasy VIII, his weapons taking on a gold color scheme.
