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.

The '''Tornado Step''' is an [[Emblem Heartless]] introduced in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]''. It is one of only three Heartless to debut in ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', along with the [[Creeper Plant]] and [[Crescendo]].


==Design==
The {{nihongo|'''Tornado Step'''|トルネードステップ|Torunēdo Suteppu}} is an [[Emblem Heartless]] that is found in ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. It mostly attacks by spiraling its body continuously like a tornado, but it can also heal when its HP is low.
The Tornado Step has a very small navy-blue body, emblazoned with the Heartless emblem. Two short legs can be seen at the bottom of the body, and a short, thin neck extends from the top to its round head, harboring two glowing, yellow eyes and a jagged maw. The Heartless wears a tall, conical, blue hat, with a bent tip and two yellow, spiral-like designs on the front. It is unclear whether the Heartless has arms extending from where its ears would be, or if the long, light aqua-colored extremities are actually part of the Heartless's hat. Black hands and yellow bangles can be seen at the end of the "arms".
 
==Journal Entries==
===''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories''===
''A Heartless that flies about using its arms like propeller blades.''
 
''Whether moving or attacking, it's always spin, spin, spinning-- but never seems to get dizzy.''
 
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
''It attacks as it moves, so once it starts spinning, stop its movements with reaction commands.''
 
''Use Tornado Ride and grab the enemy for a free ride while attacking surrounding enemies.''


In ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'', the Tornado Step experiences a very dramatic color change; its body and head now have a reddish tint, its hat is a light-orange, the spiral-like designs are now dark-orange, its "arms" are a light-yellow color, its hands are a reddish color and the bangles it wears are green.

===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
==Trivia==
The Tornado Step is often encountered alongside Crescendo Heartless, providing them with a source of healing. During the '''Tornado Ride''' [[Reaction Command]], [[Sora]] latches onto the Tornado Step as it spins with [[Keyblade]] extended, allowing him to control it and attack enemies before launching the Heartless away. Approaching an upward incline forces the Reaction Command to abort.
*The Tornado Step is one of few Heartless that were introduced in ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]''.


The Tornado Step often counters with its '''Propeller Charge''' attack when damaged. As a result, it can be easily dealt with by baiting out this attack and then utilizing its Reaction Command to make quick work of it.
