</tabber>
Attack Potency: Multiverse level (Defeated Hades, Maleficent and the Ice Titan, should be at least comparable to KHI Sora) | Low Complex Multiverse level (Bested Ventus-Vanitas, who at the time wielded an imperfect χ-Blade, can keep up with Terra-Xehanort, who can keep up with Lingering Will, who is above KHII Sora, is one of the most powerful magic users in the series rivaling the likes of those such as Mickey Mouse)
Speed: Infinite (The Realm of Darkness parallels the Realm of Light, which in itself alongside the Realm Between make up the Ocean Between, an infinite 5-D structure, Has wandered endlessly in it, and could reach by movement the furthest area of it in a finite timeframe, Managed to keep up with Vanitas and Terra-Xehanort in a duel, capable of traveling between worlds (Which each reside in different solar systems) in short periods of time, comparable to others that can travel across the worlds with a Keyblade Glider, which has been shown to also relate to direct physical movements and is comparable to the Gummi Ship based on Aqua and Ventus getting to the Keyblade Graveyard within a day just like it while also including the threat of Gummi Heartless, comparable to Xemnas, who reacted to Roxas going from Radiant Garden to the Keyblade Graveyard in seconds, not far behind Sora, who reacted to a Keyblade beam from Xehanort of a similar nature as this one) | Infinite
Lifting Strength: Class M
Striking Strength: Multiverse level (Countered strikes from and physically held her ground against Ventus-Vanitas and Terranort, even managing to overpower the former after an extended clash of Keyblades) | Low Complex Multiverse level
Durability: Multiverse level (Survived the explosive destruction of the χ-Blade, which likely held power greater than that of Vanitas) | Low Complex Multiverse level
Stamina: Superhuman (Survived in the Realm of Darkness, which erodes the Heart, without the protection of Keyblade Armor and a Black Coat for a decade, being assaulted by countless Heartless all the while)
Range: Extended Melee Range with regular attacks. Tens of Meters with Keyblade telepathy. Planetary with magic, Interdimensional with Keyholes and the Lanes Between
Standard Equipment: Various recovery items such as Potions, Ethers, and Elixirs
*Keyblade: By channeling one's strength of heart, the user can summon a Keyblade to use in battle. Through use of the Keyblade, the user is granted increased strength, speed, durability, and increased magical power. Aqua's Keyblade is Rainfell, a Keyblade from the Realm of Light. It lacks in reach but offers a balanced boost to both physical attacks and magical attacks. It is later transformed into the Stormfell, offering greater reach and even greater boosts to her attacks. After losing it and her armor upon failing to save Terra from Xehanort's influence, she begins wielding Eraqus's Keyblade, the Master's Defender, an even more potent Keyblade with excellent reach.
*Keyblade Armor: Normally kept as a simple shoulder plate when not in use, Aqua can activate it at any time by placing her hand on it, covering her from head to toe in a futuristic suit of armor with silver, black, navy-blue, and dun highlights. This suit of armor protects Aqua from the Darkness and attacks that would directly target the Heart (soul) in addition to letting her survive the vacuum of space. She lost it to Terra-Xehanort while trying to save Terra's heart, with it resting inside a hidden chamber in Castle Oblivion ever since.
Intelligence: Gifted (The first among her friends to be recognized as a Keyblade Master, Aqua is an extremely accomplished Keyblade wielder. Specializing in the use of magic, Aqua gracefully dances around the battlefield while pelting foes with a variety of powerful spells, being arguably the most skilled Keyblade Wielder in the series short of Master Xehanort in this regard. She fights with almost dance-like grace, gliding and cartwheeling around the battlefield, utilizing unique variations of the common magic spells and specializing in the use of water, ice, and light in particular)
Weaknesses: None notable
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*Command Styles: Command Styles are special forms that Aqua and her friends can use by repeatedly using specific types of attacks. Once activated, they provide a dramatic boost to their combat abilities and often imbue their attacks with elemental properties.
**Spellweaver: Aqua uses the power of light to telekinetically control her Keyblade and increase her magical power and attack range. Her finisher has her assault foes with balls of light as she attacks with her Keyblade and finishing foes with a pirouette that releases arcs of magic.
**Ghost Drive: Aqua's channels the power of darkness to drastically increase her speed and allow her to blitz opponents with swift rushing attacks and bursts of teleportation.
*Shotlocks: Shotlocks are powerful abilities that allow Aqua to lock on to multiple targets or focus on a single target before unleashing a powerful barrage of attacks on all of them, dealing massive damage in the process.
**Bubble Blaster: Aqua unleashes a torrent of bubbles from the tip of her Keyblade, dealing explosive water damage to all foes caught by them.
**Prism Rain: Aqua fires several salvos of colorful homing projectiles that converge on the target to deal heavy magic damage.
**Lightbloom: Aqua's most powerful Shotlock, she spins around while firing homing blasts of light in all directions, dealing massive damage to all foes caught by this attack.
Finishers and Exclusive Attacks
*Barrier: Unlike her friends, Aqua generates an omnidirectional barrier to block incoming attacks instead of blocking them with her Keyblade, leaving no blind spots.
**Barrier Surge: Aqua rushes forward while casting Barrier, deflecting incoming attacks and knocking aside foes in the process.
*Glacier: One of Aqua's strongest attacks, she flash freezes all nearby enemies before sending them skyward with an icy gust of wind.
*Magic Hour: Her single strongest attack, she teleports all around the field, diving onto foes and leaving behind devastating pillars of light that deal massive damage on contact.
*Raging Storm: Aqua's exclusive variation of Firaga, she generates three pillars of flame that rotate around her and deal damage to anyone who dares to approach her.
*Thundaga Shot: Fires a Thundaga spell concentrated into a fast-moving projectile.
Magic
*Bind: Locks the target in place, preventing them from moving from their current position.
*Blackout: Aqua completely blinds her foes to make it extremely difficult for them to land physical attacks or properly aim.
*Blizzaga: Aqua creates a sizable, spiked chunk of ice that deals heavy ice-elemental damage.
*Mini: Aqua shrinks her foes to the size of an ant, proportionally lowering their speed, strength, and durability. In addition, their small size allows them to be crushed simply by stepping on them.
*Stopga: Aqua instantly freezes time around her foes, leaving them helpless.
*Transcendence: Creates an inescapable anti-gravity field that allows Aqua to toss her foe around at her leisure.
