With Vexen's demise, the Replica Program is rendered inoperable. The only success to come from it was [[Xion]], the only replica from the program to develop into its own person. Even if a replica gains free will, they are still susceptible to reprogramming; they can be made to follow a specific order or have their appearance modified, even changing their original gender.{{fact}} | |||

Although Xion's true form is meant to resemble Sora's appearance, Xion's appearance is somewhat unstable as result of her being crafted imperfectly from Sora's memories. Thus, Xion's appearance differs depending on who sees her.{{?}} | ||

With Vexen's research, the [[real Organization XIII]] are able to create replica bodies for the hearts of their time-traveling members, allowing them to stay anchored in the present time. Wishing to atone, Vexen has [[Demyx]] deliver a blank replica to [[Ienzo]] in order to provide [[Roxas]] with a body separate from Sora. Likewise, once [[Dark Riku]]'s heart is forced out of his vessel, the now blank replica is used to give Naminé a body. | ||

In [[Scala ad Caelum]], twelve replicas modeled after the members of the real Organization XIII fought Sora, Donald, and Goofy before Xehanort himself confronted the trio.<ref>[http://dengekionline.com/elem/000/001/886/1886230/ ''Kingdom Hearts III'' Interview with Tetsuya Nomura (Dengeki PS)]; '''Interviewer''': "What is Scala ad Caelum, the place which also appeared in the final trailer?

Replicas are blank figures akin to mannequins that take the form of whatever [[heart]] or data of a heart is placed inside of it. They have the same skills as the individuals used to create them.

They have the same skills as the individuals used to create them. They also have the unique ability to absorb other individuals. The [[Riku Replica]] was created using data [[Vexen]] collected from fighting Riku, while Xemnas used Sora's memories to make [[Xion]], an imperfect replica of Roxas. In the manga, Vexen fashioned 44 replicas of himself. | ||
Over time, replicas like the Riku Replica and Xion formed identities, and therefore "hearts", of their own, becoming their own people. | |||
In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', the [[real Organization XIII]] re-recruits Vexen to continue the Replica Program. As Vexen explains, these newer replicas become real people once given hearts, unlike previous models, which were more akin to Nobodies. | In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', the [[real Organization XIII]] re-recruits Vexen to continue the Replica Program.
