'''Ventus''', also known as '''Ven''', is one of the main protagonists in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''. He was a [[Keyblade wielder]] before [[Sora]] ever became one, and was originally from the age of fairytales. He was transported into the future, with no memories of his original life, and apprenticed to both [[Xehanort]] and [[Eraqus]].
