Attack - Starts at 0. Add Attack to the damage of your Character's Attack abilities.

Defense - Starts at 0. Subtract Defense from damage your Character takes.

HP changes value freely during battle. AP recharges to its base value (called BaseAP) at the start of your turn.

(B) Basic (blue, costs AP) - Any other skills that cost AP. Can be used during your turn, as long as a character has AP.

(O) One-Shot (yellow) - This ability is used in place of playing an Action during your turn.

(P) Passive (gray) - Always active.

(C) Conditional (green) - Used upon a certain effect ocurring.
