{{Q|The castle is presently closed.|Aeleus to Ventus as he blocks him from entering Ansem's castle}}

'''Aeleus''' was one of the six apprentices to [[Ansem the Wise]], and the original persona of [[Lexaeus]]. He appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''.

===''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''===

''A man of true grit who serves in the Royal Guard who watch over Radiant Garden. He values action over words.''

Aeleus is shown guarding the palace of Ansem the Wise. He and [[Dilan]] meet [[Ventus]], but keep him from getting inside the castle, telling him to leave before the [[Unversed|monsters]] come out. Aeleus then spots [[Trinity Armor|an Unversed]], and both guards begin to head after it as Ventus runs ahead of them. As the two move to follow him, [[Even]] approaches and openly wonders what will become of the castle if they left their posts. Aeleus begins to argue, but Even assures Ventus could handle it because he is "special". As Aeleus questions this, Dilan recalls their job to guard the castle, and the two return to their positions at the door.

Sometime after Xehanort's defeat, Aeleus is present when Dilan throws [[Lea]] and [[Isa]] out of the castle.

About a decade prior to ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'', Aeleus was still one of six apprentices to the ruler and scientist of [[Radiant Garden]], Ansem the Wise, alongside [[Braig]], Dilan, Even, [[Ienzo]], and [[Xehanort]]. Worried the [[Darkness]] in people's [[Heart|hearts]] would eventually consume his world, Ansem began performing tests on Xehanort's heart. Eventually, he created a laboratory in his castle's basement for such experimentation. However, Aeleus and the other apprentices had their own intentions for the laboratory, and began conducting inhumane experiments on the human heart and the darkness within it. Such experimentation led to the creation of [[Heartless]]. Ansem quickly discovered their secret experiments, and immediately ordered them to stop. One day, after being advised to review their research data by [[Mickey Mouse|King Mickey]], Ansem found that the effects of their experiments had become irreversible.

Eventually, Aeleus and the other five apprentices dabbled too deep into darkness through their continued experiments. Aeleus, along with the others, was consumed by the darkness, producing a Heartless. However, the apprentices all had strong wills, and so Aeleus also became the [[Nobody]] Lexaeus. The six Nobodies formed [[Organization XIII]], and banished Ansem the Wise to the [[Realm of Nothingness]].

==Appearance==

Aeleus is seen wearing the same guard outfit as Dilan: a grey guard outfit with white cuffs and a red heart on the chest. Aeleus's axe sword also appears much smaller than his Nobody's weapon, as well as being more reminiscent of an actual axe rather than a combination of an axe and a sword. Aeleus looks almost exactly like his Nobody counterpart, except for some few minor differences.
