Will Powers

Notes

• EA - Extended field. Party members in the character's "extended area" are affected by the willpower.
• Passive - These willpowers are always activated.
• Active - These willpowers activate once the HP or SP condition is met.
• Willpowers underlined and in italics are only found on bosses.
• Willpowers are earned after a character levels up, upon spending the earned status points,
  they are not dependent on status point allocation as the order would have one think.
