Name
The monster's type, as indicated by the in-game bestiary
Type
The monster's subtype, as indicated by the in-game bestiary

HP
The monster's strength; a standard physical attack will deal approximately this amount of damage
Strength
The monster's magic power; a typical magic attack will deal approximately this amount of damage
Magic
A monster's chain resistance indicates how quickly its chain meter fills up; a chain resistance of 70 is normal, and every 30 points modifies the chain bonus per hit by that same amount; thus, the chain meter of a monster with a chain resistance of 40 will increase at double speed (compared to 70), or triple speed with a chain resistance of 10; a chain resistance of 100 negates all chain modifiers, reducing each hit to a minimal change to the chain gauge; when a monster is staggered, its chain resistance is reduced to 0
Chain Resistance
When the monster's chain gauge reaches this point, it increases by 100% and they are considered staggered; staggered creatures have a chain resistance of zero; if a monster has no stagger point listed, it will nonetheless be staggered when its chain gauge reaches 999.0%
Stagger Point
A monster's stagger index is an adjusted value that gives a relative measure of how hard a monster is to stagger; this number is based on how many hits the monster's chain gauge would require to reach the stagger point with a chain resistance of 70; for instance, a monster with a chain resistance of 70 and a stagger point of 150.0% would have a stagger index of 50 (since the chain gauge starts at 100.0%), as would a monster with a chain resistance of 40 and a stagger point of 200.0% or a monster with a chain resistance of 85 and a stagger point of 125.0%; the stagger index of a monster with a chain resistance of 100 is an approximation due to the effects of having 100 chain resistance
Stagger Index
The amount of CP earned by defeating this monster
CP

The relative priority of this monster's actions; the comparison of this value to that of other actions determines which actions succeed and which are interrupted

KO is a status that can be inflicted in two ways. Some Spells, Abilities, or Monster attacks can inflict KO, and being reduced to 0 HP does the same. There are a number of ways to restore a Character to life, though KO'd Monsters are gone for good. The most obvious way is with the Life Spell or Phoenix Down Item, or a sanctuary in town. You can also restore a KO'd target to life with 1 HP with Esuna 6 outside of combat, or 7 inside of combat. Unfortunately, you can't restore multiple Characters to life during combat, because multi-target Spells do not actually hit KO'd Characters. You'll need to bring them back one at a time. This restriction does not apply outside of combat.

KO

Type Permanent
KO status is automatically added whenever a character's HP is reduced to zero. Monsters whose HP is reduced to zero are instead removed from the battlefield, as are Monsters who have KO inflicted in other ways.
