There are a few major differences between the [[Nobodies]] within the Organization and the ones that [[Sora]] frequently encounters throughout the game. The average type that [[Sora]] fights often have strange features, inhanced speed, metallic skin in shades of white, silver, and blue, and the trademark [[Nobody]] symbol (which doubles as the logo for the Organization). The [[Nobodies]] that make up the Organization have human forms with limited special powers. One ability shared by all the members is the power to summon an oval, obsidean portal of darkness that leads to the unseen paths of darkness. The Organization makes use of these paths to move to and fro worlds unseen. A few select members of the Organization have control over the other, weaker [[Nobodies]], though this is only shown in Kingdom Hearts II. The members from CoM (a.k.a. "Chain of Memories") may also have had that ability, or rather, would have, had they all survived to the second game. Like their titles, each member's lesser [[Nobody]] has some similarity to them. These lesser [[Nobodies]] are called [[Snipers]], [[Dragoons]], [[Berserkers]], [[Assassins]], [[Dancers]], [[Gamblers]], and [[Samurai]]. [[Sniper Nobodies]] are controlled by [[Xigbar]] and, like him, carry spiky guns that shoot small red crystalized lazers. [[Dragoon Nobodies]] are controlled by [[Xaldin]] because of his affinity with air or wind, and possess a singular lance that mirrors the six that he fights with. [[Berserker Nobodies]] are under [[Saïx]]'s power and, as with the previously mentioned lesser [[Nobodies]], hold a weapon identical to that of their master. An observant player will also notice that [[Berserker Nobdies]] go through random surges of anger, much like [[Saïx]] when he becomes possessed and reverts to his werewolf side. Next are the [[Berserker Nobodies]]. This group is under [[Axel]]'s control, but have nothing to do with him at all. A plausible theory is that they once belonged to [[Marluxia]], a former comrad of [[Axel]]'s, and were passed on to him. This theory is further supported by the fact that they appear to be very similar to the giant [[Nobody]] that [[Marluxia]] bonds with in the final battle of Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories on Sora's Story. [[Dancer Nobodies]] are the most colorful of all the lesser [[Nobody]], featuring bright colors such as orange and pink. They are [[Demyx]]'s servants and relate to him merely because of his famous line, "Dance water, dance!". The [[Gambler Nobodies]] are under [[Luxord]]'s rule. [[Luxord]], being a gambler of many things, also fights with a die, of which his [[Gamblers]] juggle three. The final of these lesser [[Nobodies]] are [[Samurai]], which [[Roxas]] controls. While being a seemingly unlikely choice, [[Samurai]] wield two broad swords (rather than the typical [[katana]]) just as [[Roxas]] weilds two [[Keyblades]], Oblivion and Oathkeeper.

A common thread between all of the members is the "X" that appears within each of their names. As shown through [[Roxas]]' example, we now know that each of the member's names are anagrams of their "other's" name with the letter "x" thrown in. For instance, "Roxas" is an anagram of "Sora", and "Xemnas" is an anagram of "Ansem". Such thought made many fans anxious to try and figure out for themselves what the rest of the Organization's members anagrammed out to. Therefore, the members have also become targets of mis-annagraming, primarily being [[Xemnas]] and [[Xigbar]]. While Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix has yet to be released, magazine scans show us how each of the member's names were decided upon. Appearantly, the name of the [[Nobodies]]' "other" appears before them in translucent, rainbow colored font (similar to the one shown at the intro to "[[The World That Never Was]]"). Then, an "x" drops down and the letters re-arrange themselves until they form a new name. It is also suggested from these magazine scans that [[Xemnas]] is the one who performs this ceremony.
