About

Organization XIII

The first six members of Organization XIII are Nobodies of assistants of Ansem in his experiments in darkness. The
assistants and Ansem built an undergound facility in Hollow Bastion, where they conducted experiments with the heart,
using themselves as test subject. After speaking with the off-worlder, King Mickey, Ansem saw the immorality of what he
was doing and ceased his involvements. The assistants and their leader, Xehanort, did not share his moral compunction
and continued their experiments. This evetually led to tragedy and the creation of Nobody versions of the assistants.
Xemnas, the Nobody of Xehanort, became the "Superior" and found Organization XIII in order to learn about the secrets
of the heart and to recover their hearts and become complete beings again. To that end, they deliberately send Heartless
into various worlds with the expectation of sora killing them, releasing the hearts inside the creatures, which then bond with
Kingdom Hearts, granting more usable power for the Organization to use.

Roxas / Autumn Xepher 13

The youngest and newest member of the Organization, Roxas, the "Key of Destiny", was "born" when Sore briefly became
a Heartless. However, due to a combination of Sora's Short time as a Shadow and Kairi's heart serving in his creation, Roxas
had no memory of being Sora. He wields the Oblivion and Oathkeeper Keyblades, and controls the power of light and the Samurai Nobodies. His name is an anagram of Sora with an x added.

Larxene / Amanda Xdla 12

The only female member and the "Savage Nymph", Larxene, conspires with Marluxia to over Oranganization XIII by using Sora to achieve their ends. She is an arrogant sadist in nature, abrasive and uncaring for the feeling of other as she enjoyed
seeing them suffer with her mindgames. Larxene uses the element of thunder to fight and wield kunai (throwing knives) held between her fingers as her weapons. Compared to the other member, she is incredibly agile in battle. Larxene is defeated in Chain of Memories.

A relative newcomer to the Organization, Marluxia is Lord of Castle Oblivion and the "Graceful Assassin".

Luxord / ?????? 10

Being the "Gambler of Fate", Luxord's life is permeated by gambling. He loves to gamble and sees battle as just another form of it. Like Zexion, he is more a strategist than a powerful fighter. He has neatly ordered blond hair, a short beard and several earrings in the shape of the Nobody symbol. Luxord uses a deck of 52 giant playing cards and the element of time . He is in control of the Gambler Nobodies. Luxord appears at Port Royal , where he revives the curse of the Aztec gold, and the cursed pirate nuisance along with it. Luxord makes use of the opportunity to scout the inhabitants of Port Royal, Sora, and the gold's curse, to ascertain as to whether or not they would be useful to the Organization. In the end, he has Sora defeat a large heartless and collects the forthcoming heart before escaping without fighting Sora and his party himself. Later, at the World That Never Was, Luxord appears before Sora and traps his companions in his playing cards, leaving Sora to fight alone in a battle against time. In his final gamble, he raises his cards to defend himself from Sora's final strike, but it is in vain.

Name: True name: Rank in Organization:

Demyx / ?????? 9

A blond fighting musician, Demyx, the "Melodious Nocturne", uses a sitar as his weapon and controls the Dancer Nobodies. He does not enjoy fighting, but can control water with his sitar to replicate himself and to execute powerful and intimidating attacks. Demyx seems not to take his mission seriously at first, joking around with Sora and complaining that the higher-ups had mistakenly chosen him to carry them out, as he claims he is a poor fighter. Initially, he refers to Sora as Roxas, not regarding Sora as an individual but rather as another form of Roxas. Demyx first appears in the Underworld , where he is confronted by Sora for stealing the Olmypus Stone, an object that protects the wearer from the restrictive effects of the Underworld. He fought Sora with the use of his clones, not taking the young Keyblade master seriously at the time and left after losing. The two soon crossed paths again at Hollow Bastion during the massive Heartless attack. Upon being reminded that he was a Nobody, and therefore had no heart, thus little, if any, actual emotion, Demyx fought Sora fiercely with his full potential. Unfortunately for Demyx, it was his last fight.

Name: True name: Rank in Organization:

Axel / Ashley Mayorga Xephis 8

Axel, the "Flurry of Dancing Flames", works as a double agent in Castle Oblivion. In battle, he utilizes a pair of chakram as well as the element of fire . The Assassin Nobodies are under his control. He is a skilled manipulator and one never quite knows whose side he is really on. Axel's role and motives revolve around Roxas, whom Axel sees as a dear friend and almost like a brother. He attempts to personally bring Roxas back into the Organization by force, knowing that if Roxas was to find and meet face to face with Sora, the two would fuse to complete Sora and Roxas as a nobody would no longer exist. When that plan fails, Axel discovers that Xemnas has simply been using Roxas and the other members of the Organization to further his own selfish desires and he turns against the Organization. He kidnaps Kairi to see if he could use her to influence Sora to fight with him against Xemnas.
Because of these acts, Saïx brands Axel as a traitor, and kidnaps Kairi himself to use her as bait to fuel Sora's anger and further their plans. Axel, whose feelings for Roxas live on in Sora, finds the young hero in a pathway to darkness and chooses to fight with him rather than against him. When he and Sora are attacked by a large group of Nobodies, he performs a kamikaze attack and sacrifices himself to save Sora. With the last of his strength, Axel opens a corridor of darkness to the World That Never Was.

Saïx / ?????? 7

Saïx, the "Luna Diviner", has an X-shaped scar on his face and wields a gigantic claymore . He controls the element of moon and the Berserker Nobodies, who wield weapons much like his own. His powers and fighting style are most likely a play on lycanthropy.
Despite his rank, Saïx is respected as if he was the second in command. He is a calm and collected man who shows no emotion, belying his extensively cruel nature. Axel has a clear dislike of him and Saïx becomes the one to brand Axel as a traitor to the group for attempting to derail the Organization's plans for Sora. It was Saïx who caught Kairi after she got away from Axel and he decided to use this to his advantage. After Sora defeated the Heartless army at Hollow Bastion, Saïx appears and summons even more Heartless for Sora to defeat after he fills Sora's heart with anger when he refused to bring him to Kairi. Despite appearing calm, Saïx shows his true beastlike nature when he fights Sora at the World That Never Was, going into a berserk state by absorbing the moonlight from Kingdom Hearts. However, he was mortally wounded and died while pining for Kingdom Hearts to give him his heart back.

Xaldin confronts Sora in Beast 's Castle when he manipulated the Beast's rage by various means so that a powerful Nobody and Heartless could be created from the Beast.

He initially appears before Sora at Hollow Bastion near the beginning of the game to taunt Sora, though he never takes off his hood.
