# Extra damage vs. Undead
The spell is bugged in the NES version, as it does not grant its extra bonus at level 8.
=== Final Fantasy III ===
Aura is Bahamut's "White" effect and grants the party Haste. A similar effect can be gained by singing the Minuet song with the Loki Harp equipped.
=== Final Fantasy VIII ===
Aura grants the Aura status, which increases the chance of the affected character getting a Limit Break and allows them to get Limit Breaks outside of being in HP Critical health. Being under the effects of Aura boosts the character's Crisis Level, enhancing their Limit Breaks as well. Its effect lasts 6.6 seconds, and the affected character will be shrouded in yellow hues. Casting Aura will also cure the negative status Curse. When used on or by opponents, it causes their Strength to temporarily increase.
Used as junctioning magic, Aura will highly increase the Luck stat and can be junctioned to status defense to make a character immune to Curse. Aura is a very rare magic: the only enemy to carry Aura for drawing is Seifer. Otherwise, it must be refined from items, or drawn from draw points, such as on the Island Closest to Heaven and Island Closest to Hell.
Casting Aura in battle increases compatibility with Carbuncle by 1, and with Cerberus by 0.2, but lowers compatibility with Eden by 0.2.
=== Final Fantasy IX ===
Aura is Amarant's Flair ability that grants Regen and Auto-Life. It can be learned by equipping the Scissor Fangs or Duel Claws. It takes 25 AP to learn and 12 MP to cast. When Amarant is in Trance, Flair changes into Elan and all Flair skills affect all targets in a group, either enemies or allies.
=== Final Fantasy XI ===
Embrava is a white magic and enhancing magic aligned with the light element exclusive to Scholars of level 5 and higher under the effect of Tabula Rasa. The spell takes 20% of one's maximum MP to cast, targets a single player, and lasts for 5 minutes, although Strategems are commonly used to reduce this cost, extend this duration, and target an entire party at a time.
While the precise magnitude of the effect is dependent on the Scholar's Enhancing Magic skill, at the present time the effect gives a substantial Haste, Regen, and Regain effects. Because this effect is its own separate status, it stacks with the Haste and Regen spells.

==== Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy ====
Laguna's EX Mode casts Aura on him, coloring his weapons gold and letting him cancel out the lag of his Bravery attacks by using another Bravery attack afterward.
