According to the [[Secret Ansem Reports]], Roxas is born when Sora stabs himself with the [[Keyblade of heart]], forged from the hearts of six of the seven [[Princesses of Heart]], in order to free Kairi's heart at the cost of his own. However, Sora spends little time as a [[Sora's Heartless|Heartless]], as Kairi's light fetches Sora's heart from the darkness, restoring him to his former self shortly after he becomes a Heartless.

While Nobodies are usually destroyed so such a restoration would be possible, Roxas is able to co-exist alongside Sora, albeit with no memories of his life before. Regardless, Roxas's status as Sora's Nobody grants him the ability to use the [[Keyblade]].
While Nobodies are normally destroyed along with their Heartless counterparts to restore a complete being, Roxas was able to co-exist with Sora thanks to the unique method that restored him to a complete being. However, as downside, Roxas lacked any conscious memory of his time as Sora (as the strength of Sora's heart allowed him to retain his memories as a Heartless); though Roxas would reflexively respond to things Sora would. Normally, a Nobody would look like their original self, albeit with some minor changes; however, this wasn't the case with Roxas. At the time Roxas was created, Sora also held [[Ventus]]'s heart within his own; it remained with Sora's body and soul when it became a Nobody; as a result, Roxas didn't look like Sora, instead taking on Ventus's features.


Roxas comes into being, dazed and confused, in Twilight Town, where he is found and named by [[Xemnas]]. Shortly afterwards, he meets Axel, who, after they see Hayner, Pence and Olette walking through the town, takes Roxas to eat sea salt ice cream on the Clock Tower.

Six days after coming into being, Roxas and Xemnas meet at the [[Dark Margin]], where they talk. Xemnas reveals that he had been to see Sora, as Xemnas had encountered him at [[Hollow Bastion]].

Sora visits Twilight Town after [[Vexen]] gives him the world card. Sora doesn't recognize the world, but Donald and Goofy point out that he must, as it was created from his memories. Vexen tells Sora that it was made from the memories found on the other side of his heart. This references to Roxas as Vexen met Roxas before leaving for Castle Oblivion.
