| |
| Demyx is present when [[Xion]] joins the Organization. [[Axel]] and Roxas often tease Demyx behind his back while eating [[sea-salt ice cream]] at Station Plaza after missions, quoting how he doesn't have talent, would be "upset" if he lost his sitar, and many other things. Demyx is the first to mention the annihilation of Organization members at [[Castle Oblivion]]. Demyx accompanies Roxas on several missions, including one to [[Olympus Coliseum]], where they take down a [[Flare Note]], and one to [[Halloween Town]], where they tackle a [[Dual Blade]]. On missions to Olympus Coliseum, he tricks Roxas into thinking he will handle Heartless outside the of the Coliseum, while the gullible boy undergoes training with [[Phil]].

When Roxas approaches Demyx, he willingly admits that he "isn't cut out for combat" and would rather perform recon. He is shocked to learn of Xion's true nature when [[Xemnas]] describes the [[Replica Program]] to the Organization.

| |
| Demyx appears alongside [[Xemnas]], [[Saïx]], [[Xigbar]], [[Luxord]], and [[Xaldin]] at [[Hollow Bastion]], and laughs emptily with the rest of the group at Xemnas's empty humor at Sora's expense. Upon the Organization's return from Hollow Bastion, he suggests to let Sora carry out his adventures and that they will take action at the right time. Xigbar pretends to interpret Demyx's suggestion as him volunteering, while Demyx responds by acting flustered at this imposition. Xaldin chides both of them for acting as if they have emotions, then Xemnas interrupts all three of them by instructing the Organization to create powerful Heartless for Sora to slay. | |
|
| |
|
| On Xigbar's suggestion, he is sent to the Olympus Coliseum in order to find Sora and either push him along the path Organization XIII wish him to take, or try to awaken Roxas. Demyx contacts [[Hades]] for his assistance, but no deal was made and Demyx promptly flees, passing by Sora and company, and leaving them puzzled at his outburst. Later, Demyx steals the [[Olympus Stone]], and re-encounters Sora, [[Goofy]], and [[Donald]] within the [[Underworld]]. Demyx reads aloud his instructions and follows them by attacking a very confused Sora. However, he is unsuccessful and flees, leaving behind the Olympus Stone while begging "Roxas" to come back to the Organization, leaving Sora even more confused. He briefly returns to explain the nature of the [[Absent Silhouette]]s, remarking that by defeating the corresponding enemies, Roxas will "awaken" inside Sora.

| Later, during the [[Battle of the 1000 Heartless]] at Hollow Bastion, Demyx returns to obstruct Sora. He greets them in a faux cheerful manner, but when Sora and his friends respond by dismissing Demyx as weak, the Nobody warns them not to judge by appearances, and he drops the façade completely when Sora remarks that Nobodies lack [[hearts]]. Although he attacks the "traitor" with all his strength, he is defeated in the end and fatally wounded. As he laments his loss, he fades into [[darkness]].

Sora's complete disdain for Demyx and the Organization manages to infuriate him, and he attacks with a torrent of water—which Donald simply freezes, causing it to crush Demyx, extinguishing him.

| | ''Organization XIII's Number IX.'' |
| Xemnas persuaded Demyx to become a Nobody again, so he could become part of the [[real Organization XIII]]; however, this was merely to be a placeholder until a more adequate candidate could be recruited. With the induction of [[Dark Riku]] during Sora and Riku's [[Mark of Mastery Exam]], Demyx was benched; being missing at [[Master Xehanort]]'s revival.

| ===''Kingdom Hearts III''===
| | ''Organization members all wear black coats, and it's said their numbers were assigned in the order they joined. In addition, their names share something as a mark of their brotherhood.'' |
| [[File:A Present From Vexen 01 KHIII.png|thumb|200px|Demyx presents Ienzo with the return of Ansem the Wise.]]
| |
| Following [[Larxene]] confirming two of the [[New Seven Hearts]] are in [[Arendelle]], Demyx meets with Luxord, [[Marluxia]], and [[Larxene]] in the [[Keyblade Graveyard]], where he complains about having been benched. Xemnas arrives to inform the four that they were specifically recruited due to their ties to the time before the original [[Keyblade War]].
| |
|
| |
|
| Later, Vexen tracks Demyx down at [[Radiant Garden]] and tries to convince him to assist in subverting the Organization's plans, in order to atone for their prior misdeeds as Nobodies. Demyx counters that he and Vexen had no prior relationship, but Vexen explains that this is why Demyx is perfect for the role and that this is, in fact, part of [[Saïx]]'s plan.
| | ==Story== |
| | ===''[[Kingdom Hearts novels]]''=== |
| | In his own room at an unknown time, Demyx was fixing his hair in front of the mirror, something he did from when he was a human made him do it. Finishing setting his hair, Demyx picked up the sitar and strummed it. He plays and plays, but he was interrupted by [[Xaldin]], who told him to keep it down because he wanted to sleep. |
|
| |
|
| Pursuant to their plans, Demyx later delivers one of Vexen's replicas and [[Ansem the Wise]], who Vexen had rescued, to [[Ienzo]]. Ansem and Ienzo then use this replica as a vessel for [[Roxas]]'s digital memories. After Sora and [[Riku]] defeat [[Dark Riku]] and Xigbar in the [[Keyblade Graveyard]], Demyx arrives on a mission from Ienzo to retrieve another replica vessel for [[Naminé]]. After showing Riku his [[Gummiphone]] that Ienzo gave him to prove he is on their side, Demyx takes the empty replica back to Radiant Garden.
| | Annoyed, Xaldin questioned why Demyx clings to his human memories, but he didn't reply. Xaldin told him that [[Nobody|Nobodies]] need to sleep because a terrible force is moving this world and they need rest to store up power. Demyx did not reply once again as Xaldin left the room, displeased. |

| Demyx wears a black cloak similar in style to Xigbar's, with somewhat close-fitting sleeves and pointed shoulder pads, though Demyx's shoulder pads are more noticeable than Xigbar's. His black gloves and boots are normal. He has green eyes and dirty-blond hair, the latter of which is quite distinctive. Demyx's hair has an odd mullet-like style, and he has several individual bangs that fall over his face. He is rather youthful in appearance when compared to most of the other members. | | [[File:DemyxDaysFace.jpg|left]] |
| {{Canon|In the manga, unknown to Demyx, Saïx has installed tracking chips in Demyx's black coats in order to keep track of him. Axel makes the poor choice of stealing one to replace his damaged coat and shrinks it in the dryer to fit him.{{fact}}}}
| | Demyx plays a slightly larger role in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', present when [[Xion]] joined the Organization. Often teased behind his back by Axel and Roxas whilst they eat sea-salt ice cream at the Station Plaza after missions, they quote how he doesn't have talent, would be "upset" if he lost his sitar, along with many other things. Demyx is the first to mention the annihilation of Organization members that took place at [[Castle Oblivion]], accompany Roxas on several missions including one to the [[Olympus Coliseum]] where they take down a [[Flare Note]], and one to [[Halloween Town]] where they tackle a [[Dual Blade]].

When Roxas approaches Demyx, he willingly admits that he "isn't cut out for combat" and would rather perform recon. |
|
| |
|
| In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', Demyx's eyes become golden when he becomes a vessel for Xehanort's heart.
| | ===''Kingdom Hearts II''=== |
| | ====Hollow Bastion==== |
| | Demyx appears in [[Hollow Bastion]] with all of the other Organization members, but he does not contact Sora. However, you can hear Demyx's higher-pitched, nervous laugh in the background. |
|
| |
|
| When viewing his character model in Jiminy's Journal, Demyx does not seem to blink, unlike the other Organization members.
| | ====Role in the Organization==== |
| | Demyx's role in the Organization's plans is minor. He is sent after Sora on suggestion by Xigbar to find him and "''liberate his true disposition''", that is, to keep Sora on the path Organization XIII wish him to take. He also contacts [[Hades]], but no deal was made and Demyx promptly flees, saying "''Run, run away!''", passing by Sora and co. and leaving them puzzled at his outburst. Later, Demyx steals the [[Olympus Stone]], and soon encounters Sora within the [[Underworld]] once more. Although Sora doesn't understand the meaning of Demyx's objectives, nor why Demyx calls him Roxas, Demyx is unable to fulfill them and took the next ordered step, which is to attack Sora. Demyx at first only summons "forms" of water - water shaped into himself and musical notes, which then attacked Sora, [[Goofy]] and [[Donald Duck|Donald]] - which he controlled with his sitar. He is unsuccessful in defeating Sora with his water forms, however, and escapes instead of continuing the fight. |
|

| ==Personality== | | ====Death==== |
| [[File:Nocturne Melody Demyx 02 KHII.png|thumb|left|200px|Demyx is startled upon encountering Sora again.]]
| | {{Q|Silence, traitor.|-Demyx when he drops his emotional ploy.}} |
| As a Nobody, Demyx lacks a heart and is therefore incapable of feeling emotions. In spite of this, Demyx behaves as if he does possess a heart, an act which Xaldin criticizes him for. As a result, Demyx has a very casual and lazy disposition. He is also cowardly, running from many encounters, including ones with Hades and Sora; and in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', he claims that he finds Larxene quite frightening and also refuses to go searching for a giant Heartless alone.
| | Demyx confronts Sora later in Hollow Bastion during the [[Battle of 1000 Heartless]], again greeting Sora in a rather friendly manner. However, Sora and his companions' response is hostile, even claiming that Demyx is unable to fight. Demyx still maintains his personality despite the insult, with only a "''You shouldn't judge anyone by appearance''" in a slightly deeper tone. But when Sora and co. claim that the Nobodies do not have hearts, Demyx's normal carefree air vanishes, and he silences them with a much darker tone and attacks the "traitor" again with all his strength. In the end, however, Demyx is defeated again and fatally wounded. After lamenting his loss, he fades into darkness, the first Organization XIII member to do so in ''Kingdom Hearts II''. |
|
| |
|
| Due to his very laid-back personality, Demyx is on good terms with both [[Axel]] and Xigbar, while calling Xigbar the nickname "Xiggy", and often converses with him in the Grey Area. Although Axel and Roxas talk about him behind his back, Axel defends him after Roxas comments that Demyx doesn't do anything, stating that Demyx specializes in recon.
| | ==Appearance== |
| | Demyx wears a black cloak similar in style to [[Xigbar]]'s, with somewhat closer-fitting sleeves and pointed shoulder pads, though Demyx's shoulder pads are more noticible than Xigbar's.

Demyx's hair has an odd mullet-like style, and he has several individual bangs that fall over his face. He is rather youthful in appearance when compared to most of the other members. |
|
| |
|
| Demyx harbors a strong dislike for Larxene, calling her a witch. The feeling is apparently mutual as she has referred to him as lazy and useless. When news gets back from Castle Oblivion, he seems to be glad that she has died, showing that even he can be a bit cruel and crass without a heart. He also dislikes Saïx, calling him "X-face" in one of his [[Secret Reports]], saying that Saïx constantly barks at him to get to work.{{storylink|Day 153: This Is Gonna Be a Hit!}} However, he exhibits some care toward Xion compared to the other members who have no care for her at all, showing that he may be a bit kinder than them, although he thought it was "intense" when he found out that Xion was a "puppet". | | ==Personality== |
| | [[File:Demyx.jpg|thumb|250px|Demyx from ''Kingdom Hearts II'']] |
| | Demyx, unlike the other Organization members, has a very casual, cowardly, and lazy personality - though this is simply an act since Nobodies are free of all emotion and thus cannot feel fear. He runs from many encounters, including ones with Hades and Sora; and in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', he states that he finds Larxene quite frightening and also refuses to go searching for a giant Heartless alone. Along with Xigbar, Axel and Larxene, Demyx is portrayed as one of the more comical members of the Organization, although unlike the other three who have that role due to their sarcasm and wisecracks, Demyx has this role because of his laziness. |
|
| |
|
| Demyx seems to dislike working as much as he dislikes fighting; he even goes as far as manipulating Roxas, dumping his missions on the younger Nobody and going off to have fun. He complains that he isn't a fighter and even considers sweat gross, preferring to stay at The Castle That Never Was or at least be given a reconnaissance mission.{{?}}<!--cite quote from Day--> Despite this, he still feels a desire to belong and gets insulted when the other members acknowledge his incompetence, so when he is explicitly reduced to a reserve member of the second Organization, Vexen is able to convince him to join his plan to betray the Organization.{{?}}<!--cite to quote in KH3--> | | With his laid-back personality and despite his often sitting around, Demyx seems to be on good terms with both [[Axel]] and [[Xigbar]], calling Xigbar "Xiggy" and is often shown talking to him in the Grey Area.

|
| |
|
| When he is on missions that require him to engage opponents, Demyx has shown to go about them in a carefree manner. He takes his task of pursuing Sora lightly, reading his orders aloud off of cue cards and complaining about his distaste for fighting in front of the latter. His cries in battle after being hit are also more characteristic of "yelps" than those of the other members and are exclamations rather than reactions. Before his final battle against Sora, however, his true nature as an emotionless entity is revealed, proving that his easygoing, friendly attitude is but a deceptive façade. When he is defeated, however, he screams in agony and defeat, holding his head, and whimpers as he fades back into darkness.

|
| |
|
| In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', Demyx's personality remains the same as he was before Sora defeated him. However, Demyx has become rather more sarcastic and dismissive in regards to his interactions with the other members of the real Organization XIII. He is not frightened or even fazed by Larxene's spiteful insults, a foil to his original fear of her. Despite his lazy demeanor, Demyx did show some annoyance at being "benched" and serving as a reserve member. After being convinced by a repentant Vexen, he was willing to work against Master Xehanort's plans, just to stand out and have his moment, which he calls "Demyx Time".
| | Demyx is much less serious and more carefree than the other Organization members, as well as selfish, and seems to take his task of pursuing Sora lightly.

His cries in battle after being hit are also more characteristic of "yelps" than those of the other members, and are exclamations rather than reactions.

| | However, it is not yet known the real reasons behind it, or if it was also a farce in itself to look dangerous; though it is worth noting this doesn't occur until after Donald denies his claim about Nobodies having hearts. Usually Sora does not take him seriously unlike the other members, but in their final confrontation seems shocked at his turnabout. |

| Demyx is portrayed as being weak, cowardly, and lazy, but proves to be no pushover in the battle with Sora. He can be a formidable foe due to his ability to summon water clones that must be defeated within a time limit. Demyx, being a musician, uses music to control the water around him and to summon "water forms", objects shaped out of water into musical notes or copies of himself, which move about the battle area to hit Sora, forcing him to defeat the forms in a certain amount of time to avoid an automatic loss. Demyx can also summon violent geysers to erupt from the ground, forming strong streams of water which damage Sora and throw him into the air. His sitar is rarely used as a weapon but is most often used to play his music instead. When Demyx does engage in physical combat, he attacks using the bladed headstock of his sitar, performing spinning and twirling movements reminiscent of a rockstar to strike his opponents, which he can also combine with his water powers to increase the area of effect. Demyx does little fighting by himself, instead relying on his control of water to make it fight for him.
| |
|
| |
|
| In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', Demyx has a Limit Break called [[Wave Gigs]], which causes him to play his sitar to summon water pillars and, in his Final Limit, release exploding balls of water.

| {{reflist}}
| | *Oddly enough, Demyx's name was never spoken in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', although it was in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]''. |
| | *Coincidentally, Airwalk produces a shoe model named Demyx (one likely focused towards women with its design), and another named Roxas. |
| | *Despite wielding water, Demyx has a weakness against [[Fire]] magic. This is because in the magic properties of ''Kingdom Hearts II'', water is classified as form of [[Blizzard]] magic. However, in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', water and blizzard are two different types of attacks and magic. |
| | *Most of Demyx's weapons are named after musical or rock and roll terms. |
