The Heartless symbol is used, as its name suggests, to represent the [[Heartless]], specifically Emblem Heartless. The standard Heartless emblem is displayed on every single Emblem Heartless, as well as [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]]'s chest and certain weapons related to Heartless, such as the [[Akashic Record]] and [[Precious Mushroom]]. In the [[End of the World]], the doorway leading to the Final Rest area is shaped like the Heartless emblem. The Heartless emblem without the barbed "X" is commonly associated with Riku. When using [[Dark Mode]], Riku wears the symbol on his chest, and the aforementioned lack of a thorny cross symbolizes the fact he hasn't completely lost his heart to the darkness.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Ultimania]]''''', '''Tetsuya Nomura:''' "... and how the Heartless emblem on [Riku's] chest is missing the thorny cross because Riku's heart has not yet completely fallen to darkness."

It is also the [[Keychain]] token of his main Keyblade, [[Way to the Dawn]]. In its appearances in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'' and onwards, the token's design integrates elements of the recurring heart symbol, curling the tips of the Heartless emblem's red outline inward at the top. The Keychain token of the [[χ-blade]] is a black and red heart resembling the Heartless emblem, but with two [[Kingdom Key]]s crossed over it in place of the normal red design. In the [[World of Chaos]] fight, the arena is shaped like a blue Heartless insignia.

The Heartless emblem is comprised of a heart with a ''fleur-de-lis'' at its base. It is typically black with a red outline and barbed "X" crossing through the heart in the symbol, which symbolizes the fact that Heartless act without emotions, hence their name. A common variation of the Heartless emblem is a completely black silhouette, lacking the cross over the heart. A third variation is simply a heart featuring the color scheme of the standard Heartless symbol, a black body and red outline, but also lacks the cross.

The silhouette of Mickey Mouse's head is frequently used to represent not only Mickey himself, but Disney as a whole. [[Disney Town]] and [[Disney Castle]] feature the symbol heavily, and three of the many craters in the [[Keyblade Graveyard]] form the silhouette as well. The symbol is also incorporated into the [[Trinity Limit]] circle, [[Gimmick Card]]s, and certain weapons such as the [[Dream Sword]]. It serves as the Keychain token for the Kingdom Key, [[Kingdom Key D]], [[Victory Line]], [[Braveheart]], and the [[Star Cluster]] Keyblades. King Mickey uses the symbol to seal all of his official letters.<!--Goofy: Gawrsh, that's the king's seal!--> In the Sleeping Worlds, [[La Cite Des Cloches]], [[The Grid]] and [[Prankster's Paradise]] are arranged to make up a Hidden Mickey. In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', the Station of Awakening for the facsimile of the [[Kingdom of Corona]] in The Final World bears the silhouette around the circumference of its design, as it is where Sora finds Mickey's heart and rescues it from the Lich. Mickey's [[Alba & Ater]] game piece features a Mickey head on the top.

The {{nihongo|'''Gazing Eye'''|見つめる目|Mitsumeru Me}} is a blue eye with a {{w|cymophane|cat's eye}} iris which belongs to the [[Master of Masters]]. He placed it within the [[No Name]] Keyblade, then asked [[Luxu]] to pass it down from apprentice to apprentice, eventually reaching [[Xehanort]] in order to have it observe its surroundings throughout the eons and pass those back to the Master in his own era. Aside from the No Name, the Gazing Eye is also visible in its alternate form as [[Young Xehanort's Keyblade]], as well as his Clock, while the symbol appears on the Keyblades or Keychain tokens of his other apprentices, the [[Foreteller]]s, as well as those of [[Xehanort]]: Vanitas's [[Void Gear]], Terra's [[Chaos Ripper]] and [[Darkgnaw]], Riku's [[Soul Eater]] and [[Way to the Dawn]], Riku and Sora's [[End of Pain]], and [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]]'s dual Soul Eater polearm. A red variation of the Gazing Eye is also present in the Fake Attack Card picture, dropped by {{ns|Game|Zexion}}.
