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 '''Wayward Wind''' is the default form of [[Ventus]]'s [[Keyblade]] which appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''. Like most Keyblades in the series, it is a Keyblade of the [[Realm of Light]].{{fact}}<!--cite to Xehanort Report--> Ventus uses this Keychain in order to form his [[Keyblade Glider]].
<!--how does Ventus get his Keyblade?


Ventus is not upgraded because he has yet to complete his training.{{fact}}-->
Fresh Breeze is a notably peculiar Keyblade, with the hilt and guard positioned off the shaft, rather than aligned with it. The shaft, head and teeth are dark grey and have golden lines embedded into it; three just above the guard and one curving around the base. The shaft itself is rounded and becomes thicker around the guard. The teeth are more mechanical, resembling the teeth of [[Two Become One]], and the hilt and guard resembles that of the [[Kingdom Key]], which may have a connection between Ventus, [[Sora]], and [[Roxas]]. The keychain is made up of figure-8 links and the charm appears as two feathers swirling around a green sphere.


==Design==
Due to its unique construction, Fresh Breeze is designed to be wielded in reverse. It should be noted that in the secret movie, he held the Keyblade teeth-forward, but recent videos have shown him using the blunt side. This is due to the recent re-design, relocating the hilt and guard to the same side as the teeth.
Wayward Wind is a peculiar Keyblade that is designed to be easily wielded in reverse. The black handle is offset from the Keyblade as opposed to being aligned with it, and the guard is equally misaligned. The guard is a dull gold color and joins with the shaft of the Keyblade to fully enclose the handle. The shaft is grey, thin, and has a very slight curve outward. There are three thin, dull gold lines that decorate the middle of the shaft. Two short bars connect the main blade to the teeth. The Wayward Wind's teeth are grey like the blade and have a wing-like shape. They are comprised by five curved bars that decrease in size the lower they are on the Keyblade. The Keychain token is a green gem with two silver flurries of wind spiraling around it.


Due to a late development change, the final design of the Wayward Wind differs from most of its depictions; although the teeth and the hilt are on the same side in the game and on the boxart, they are on opposite sides in Ventus's concept artwork, in his D-Link icon, and in the ''{{c|Birth by Sleep|video}}'' video. In particular, the Wayward Wind's design in the video was significantly simpler. In addition to the location of the teeth, the Keyblade was also much less smooth and more block-like, appeared more rusted and faded, and did not have a clearly defined color scheme. The gold tone of the handle simply faded into the dull silver tone of the rest of the weapon. It also lacked a Keychain.

The Wayward Wind's English and Japanese names, as well as certain aspects of its design, reference Ventus's name, which means "wind" in Latin. "Wayward Wind" may also reference how Ventus runs away from the Land of Departure.
In [[Deep Space]], Ventus is shown to be riding a board with similar properties as Fresh Breeze while wearing his armor shown in "[[Birth by sleep (Video)|Birth by sleep]]". It is later revealed that Ven can turn Fresh Breeze into a skateboard and ride it to other worlds like a [[Gummi Ship]].

* The skateboard-style riding of Fresh Breeze may imply a further connection between Ventus and Roxas, as Roxas frequently used a skateboard while in Twilight Town. (Sora is also seen to know how to use a skateboard in ''Kingdom Hearts II''.)
*[[Ends of the Earth]]
* The keychain on Fresh Breeze appears as blowing wind in a conical shape. This is notable as Ventus means "Wind" in Latin. The same can be said of Aqua's water-themed keychain (Aqua meaning "Water") and Terra's earth-themed keychain (Terra meaning "Earth").
*[[Lost Memory]]
* In the secret ending of ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'', the Fresh Breeze was destroyed when Master Xehanort froze Ventus and dropped him off of the cliff he stood upon. In ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', however, the Keyblade remains intact.
