Warning red.pngREAD BEFORE EDITING:
  • Red-linked phrases should not be de-linked or pipe-linked if the phrase is from an official publication. Instead, please start an article or redirect at the link's target.
  • Technical info must be written in accordance with the consensus formats. Adding technical info without using these formats creates extra work for other editors and wastes everyone's time.
  • Trivia will be removed if it fails to meet the notability guidelines.
  • Do not source news to fansite translations of official publications or journals. Instead, source the publication or journal itself.
  • Based on the spelling used by the games, "Grey" is preferred over "Gray".
  • Entelechy is used here per its English definition, and is not meant to imply that it is an official term within the Kingdom Hearts franchise.
  • Do NOT add voice actors to a character's article UNLESS YOU HAVE A CLEAR SOURCE TO SUPPORT IT.

As [[Li Shang]] and his men limp back to the Imperial City, several of them succumb to their fatigue and become Nightwalkers, which immediately attack Li Shang.

==Attacks==
*'''Claw''': Two hand claw-scratch
*'''Tailspin Charge''': Aerial tailspin charge
*'''Spin Slash''': Low spinning attack
 
They are ghostly [[Heartless]] and they hover in midair. They use ghost-fire for long-range attacks but also use their claws for close range attacks. They can be difficult to defeat if one is low leveled, due to their aerial attacks and sweeps.


==Design==
==Design==
The Nightwalker has a spherical head with a jagged mouth and glowing, yellow eyes with black rings around them. Its skin is sky blue, and its arms are always held stiffly out in front of its body. It dresses in high-collared, purple robes with hand blue and yellow lining on the loose, furisode-esque sleeves. The front of these robes is magenta with yellow lining. It also wears a wide, flat-topped hat that is purple on top and magenta near the base, with the two colors being separated by a yellow, zig-zagging line. It also seems to wear pointed shoes, though because they are the same color as the Heartless's skin, they may simply be its feet. Its Heartless symbol is printed on a small, yellow piece of parchment stuck to its forehead.

The Nightwalker's name could be a reference to {{w|vampire}}s, monsters that traditionally could not venture out into light. Its mannerisms also make it resemble {{w|jiangshi}}, vampire and zombie-like creatures from Chinese mythology. Though they initially were said to feed of the qi of living beings, they eventually became known as blood–suckers as well, due to influence from Western stories about vampires.

Nightwalkers are summoned somewhat differently than other Heartless. The robe and hat appear along with the parchment, which is lit in blue flames, bringing the Nightwalker to life to attack its target.

==Strategy==
<!--story:
Nightwalkers hover in midair and ghost-fire for long-range attacks but also use their claws for close range attacks. When damaged, they counterattack with their '''Spin Slash''' attack. The counterattack can be avoided by jumping. Once the Nightwalker's close-range attack has been blocked, immediately follow up with a combo attack. Continue dodging with jumps or blocking its attacks and countering until it is defeated.
* In the [[Land of Dragons]] some of the Imperial soldiers turn into Nightwalkers because of the despair in their hearts. -->
 
When reduced to 60% HP, the Nightwalker jumps up and down in the air and exclusively uses its '''Tailspin Charge''' attack as its non-counterattack technique.
