[[Ven]] is a character who will appear in the upcoming game ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep]]''.  He first appeared in the secret ending movie in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+]]'', fighting against [[Master Xehanort]]'s apprentice with companions [[Aqua]] and [[Terra]]. His most memorable role in the video is his capture by Master Xehanort, who teleports behind him when [[Ven]] attempts to attack him from behind. [[Ven]] struggles against Master Xehanort's grip, but to no avail ; Master Xehanort squeezes his head hard enough to crack his helmet and freezes his entire body before letting him drop from the cliff. [[Ven]]'s body is caught by [[Aqua]] after hitting the cliff wall, shattering his [[keyblade]] and most of what remained of his helmet. When his face is fully revealed, apparently still alive (as his eyes are trying to focus on Aqua), it is shown that he is identical to [[Roxas]]. The connection between the two is not explained or even confirmed as an existent connection, leading to scattered theories among fans. One rumor speculates the reason [[Ven]] looks like [[Roxas]] is that [[Terra]] was told to take care of [[Sora]], but couldn't for some strange reason, leading to [[Ven]] taking care of [[Sora]] and ending up as his [[Nobody]]. This would make [[Roxas]] and [[Ven]] the same person. [[Ven]] has been shown to wear the same checkered wristband as [[Roxas]] on his left wrist (the same as [[Roxas]]) but [[Ven]]'s has a white outline while [[Roxas]]'s has a black outline. It is unknown if this shows a connection between the two or it's just an ironic situation.  His resemblance to [[Roxas]] is even more uncanny in his unarmored attire.
 
Not much is known about [[Ven]] but in one scene during the TGS trailer, [[Terra]] says that [[Ven]] rescued him and [[Ven]] replys it was because they are friends. The latest magazine indicates that [[Ven]] will be a playable character, and shown capable of conjuring Thunder-like magics.
 
According to an interview with Nomura, [[Ven]] is expected to play a huge role in the upcoming PSP game named after the video, perhaps even bigger than just being a male protagonist. In a video of unseen footage, [[Ven]] encounters Master Xehanort while at [[Olympus Coliseum]]. [[Ven]] asks who he is only to have a flash of light go past as if he realized something. Master Xehanort goes on to say that [[Ven]] is losing something but he hasn't lost it permanently. He then summons a lightning-like ball of energy in his hand like in the trailer. He tells [[Ven]], "In order to obtain it, give up," and, "Now recover everything, and discover the truth!" This may be in regards to Ven's memory (akin to Chain of Memories), but this theory has yet to be confirmed. <ref name="smi">[http://www.kingdomhearts3.net/scenario-mysteries-interview/ Scenario Mysteries Interview From Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+ Ultimania]</ref>

His most memorable role in the video is his capture by Master Xehanort, who teleports behind him when Ven attempts to attack him from behind. Ven struggles against Master Xehanort's grip, but to no avail ; Master Xehanort squeezes his head hard enough to crack his helmet and freezes his entire body before letting him drop from the cliff. Ven's body is caught by Aqua after hitting the cliff wall, shattering his keyblade and most of what remained of his helmet. When his face is fully revealed, apparently still alive (as his eyes are trying to focus on Aqua), it is shown that he is identical to Roxas.

At Square Enix's latest convention, A playable demo of Ven in Cinderella's world was seen. In Cinderella's world Ven seems to have been shrunk down to the size of a rat. This is likely to be magic was cast on him so he was the same size as the other rats from Cinderella. An image shows him holding his Keyblade and standing in front of Jaq as if he's defending him from something (Most likely Lucifer since Lucifer has been revealed to be a boss for Ven to fight and images of the battle have been seen) and you notice Ven and Jaq are about the same size. Another image shows Ven carrying a ball of blue yarn while trying to sneak past a giant Lucifer. He was also with Aqua when Maleficent told them that Terra's heart was descending into darkness, after hearing this he seemed upset and wanted not to believe it. Some fans have speculated that based on conversation and screen shots of Terra and Ven that the two will have a similar best friend relationship that other male characters have had in the Kingdom Hearts series i.e. Sora and Riku, Roxas and Axel. Ven's full name has been confirmed to be Ventus.
