{{Q|All worlds begin in darkness, and all so end. The heart is no different.|Xehanort}}
'''Xehanort''' is the main antagonist of the ''[[Kingdom Hearts|Kingdom Hearts'' series]], a former apprentice of [[Ansem the Wise]], and the original persona of [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]], and [[Xemnas]]. Xehanort was originally "born" as '''Terra-Xehanort''', when [[Master Xehanort]] forced his heart into [[Terra]]'s body, but became simply "Xehanort" when his personalities and memories were sealed within his heart. Xehanort is directly responsible for the creation of the [[Emblem Heartless]], the [[Nobody|Nobodies]], and [[Organization XIII]], and also indirectly responsible for putting most of the Disney villains on the hunt for [[Kingdom Hearts (world)|Kingdom Hearts]]. One way or another, Xehanort has made an appearance in every game of the "Xehanort Saga". Similar to the Organization XIII members, Xehanort's name contains the letter "X", along with anagrams for "No Heart" and "Another".<!--


The name '''Xehanort''' may also refer to:
THESE ARE THE MEANINGS OF HIS NAME, AS EXPLAINED BY NOMURA. ANY OTHER ANAGRAMS ARE SPECULATION, AND ARE NO MORE APPROPRIATE THAN "LUDRO" OR "MEDY"
*'''[[Young Xehanort]]''', the time-traveling younger version of Xehanort.
 
*'''[[Terra-Xehanort]]''', who is sometimes referred to as "Xehanort," is the result of Master Xehanort possessing Terra's body.
-->
*'''[[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]]''', the Heartless of Terra-Xehanort who is sometimes referred to as only '''Xehanort's Heartless'''.
 
*'''[[Xemnas]]''', the Nobody of Terra-Xehanort, who is sometimes referred to as "Xehanort".

{{Q|Your body submits, your heart succumbs— so why does your mind resist?|Xehanort, prior to his fight with Terra's armor}}
[[File:Terra-Xehanort_and_LS.png|thumb|right|Terra-Xehanort trapped by Terra's discarded armor.]]
 
Xehanort first appeared chronologically in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' at the [[Keyblade Graveyard]] when Master Xehanort used [[Master Xehanort's Keyblade|his Keyblade]] to unlock his heart and possess Terra after the creation of the [[χ-blade]]. He sought to use Terra's body as a younger and more powerful weapon as he ventured deeper into the mystery of the [[Keyblade War]]. Terra failed to shield himself with his [[Keyblade Armor|armor]], becoming a younger incarnation of the elderly [[Keyblade]] master. As he walked off, the possessed Terra was forced to battle [[Lingering Sentiment|Terra's discarded armor]], which had come alive through Terra's mind. After the fight, Terra-Xehanort was knocked unconscious and was then sent to the [[Radiant Garden]] in a blast of light caused by the destruction of the χ-blade (and [[Vanitas]]) by [[Aqua]] and [[Ventus]]. The discarded armor continued to reside in the Keyblade Graveyard from then on, [[Kingdom Hearts (world)|Kingdom Hearts]] vanishing above it.
[[File:Aquaterranort1.jpg|thumb|left|Aqua sacrifices herself to save Terra's possessed body.]]
Aqua, learning from [[Yen Sid|Master Yen Sid]] that her friend Terra's heart had been lost, was led to [[Radiant Garden]] through Terra's voice after hearing it when she left a comatose Ventus to rest peacefully in [[Chambers of Repose and Waking|a chamber]] in [[Castle Oblivion|the newly reshaped Land of Departure]]. It was in the Radiant Garden that Aqua met Terra-Xehanort. Confused about his identity (due to the conflicting hearts Terra and Master Xehanort within him) Terra-Xehanort attacked Aqua with [[Master Xehanort's Keyblade]] and [[Xehanort's Guardian|a Heartless-like symbiote]]. After the climatic battle, Terra begins to get the upper hand in his and Master Xehanort's internal struggle, which forces Terra-Xehanort to use the [[Master Xehanort's Keyblade|Keyblade]] to force him out. However, the symbiote drags Xehanort into the [[Realm of Darkness]], Aqua diving in after him and sacrificing her armor and [[Stormfall|Keyblade]] to save Terra-Xehanort. After these events transpired, [[Braig]] took fellow apprentice [[Dilan]] as well as their master [[Ansem the Wise]] to the location of the battle between Aqua and Terra-Xehanort, where the amnesiac Keyblade wielder lay unconscious with no memory at all, except the name "Xehanort". On Ansem's order, the amnesiac young man was taken back to the castle along with Aqua's armor and Keyblade.
 
One year later, Xehanort became Ansem's foremost apprentice, showing remarkable talents and having a great curiosity about the true nature of the heart. He also began to work with Braig, who would begin to construct a plan to mass produce the nefarious [[Heartless]] alongside him. Little was Xehanort aware that inside him a battle between the hearts of Terra and Master Xehanort was taking place, the two arguing over who was to control Xehanort's body.

[[File:Xehanort_Painting.png|thumb|left|The painting of Xehanort in Ansem's study.]]
{{Q|Xehanort. Foolish apprentice of a foolish man.|Ansem the Wise to Xemnas.}}
While [[Sora]] was investigating [[Ansem the Wise]]'s study within [[Hollow Bastion]], he spots a portrait of an unnamed man. He and his friends ([[Donald Duck]] and [[Goofy]]) realize that this man was the original being of [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|"Ansem"]], who Sora had defeated one year ago. After speaking with [[Tron]] and learning more about Ansem the Wise, they return to Ansem's study and run into King Mickey, who indicates that the true Ansem was not the one they fought. He asks them to give Tron some further help, and once they return, they find an image of an unknown man on Tron's computer, which Mickey identifies as a picture of the real Ansem. Later, after defeating [[Battle of the 1000 Heartless|the Heartless swarming the town]], the trio encounter [[Xemnas]], the Nobody of the fake Ansem and the superior of Organization XIII. Mickey finally remembers that Xemnas's original being was Xehanort, and explains about his past encounter with Ansem and Xehanort.
 
In [[The World That Never Was]], King Mickey encounters the true Ansem, and learns from him that his goal is to destroy Xemnas's artificial [[Kingdom Hearts (world)|Kingdom Hearts]] and exact revenge on Xehanort for stealing his name and pride. [[Riku]] and Sora also refer to the fake Ansem as "Xehanort's Heartless", when Sora mistakes Riku for the villain, and when Riku explains how he had gained Ansem's form. Later on, Ansem repeatedly uses the name "Xehanort" to insultingly refer to Xemnas, who replies by listing Ansem's own sins, and accusing Ansem of always holding his research back. Xemnas's demise at the hands of Sora and Riku marks the complete destruction of Organization XIII, but it is a pyrrhic victory, as it paves way for the return of Master Xehanort.
 
==Personality==
Relatively little has been shown of Xehanort's personality in the series. Upon his "birth" in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', Xehanort appears to retain Master Xehanort's personality, including his knowledge of Darkness.
 
Shortly after Xehanort was defeated by the [[Lingering Sentiment]], and lost some of his memories, he ended up in Radiant Garden, and began to question his existence upon meeting Aqua - by strangling her. By the time he is found by Braig, Dilan, and Ansem, he has lost all of his memories entirely - except for the name "Xehanort", although at one point, Braig insinuates that the amnesia is a mere ruse.
 
As one of Ansem's apprentices, Xehanort appears to have had a very professional and no-nonsense attitude, shown by his determination in his studies. He appeared to be easily annoyed by Braig and was shown to be equally as interested in the darkness of hearts as his original incarnation. Xehanort appeared frustrated when Ansem forbade him from continuing his studies and experiments, and ultimately disobeyed his master. When speaking to [[Xemnas]], Ansem the Wise refers to Xehanort as "foolish" and that any world of his "would be an empire of ignorance".
 
==Appearance==
As Terra's body was used in the creation, Xehanort's initial attire was virtually identical to Terra's, albeit with slightly darker skin, white hair and eyebrows and yellow eyes.
 
While in Radiant Garden, after losing his memories, Xehanort wore a white labcoat with rather loose sleeves that is partway zipped down. The coat also has pockets roughly where Xehanort's hips would be. He wears black boots that are identical to those worn by [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|his Heartless]], [[Xemnas|his Nobody]], and the members of [[Organization XIII]], with a white/silver lining along the top and an indentation on the sides. Underneath his coat, Xehanort wears a grey vest overtop a white collar shirt, along with a purple ascot around his neck. During this time, his hair is worn long, with two bangs framing his face. His hair also sports three backward-facing spikes, one at the top of his head, and one on either side, just above his ears. In addition his eyes have turned brown.
 
==Abilities==
{{main|Terra-Xehanort (Boss)}}
Terra-Xehanort, being a possessed version of [[Terra]], is able to use many of [[Master Xehanort]]'s old abilities, granted their power is increased by the darkness he shamelessly wields. He will use the Keyblade of his other original persona, Master Xehanort, to perform Ars Solum, a fast combo comprised of multiple hits. He can use Meteor and Quake as well, one of the few bosses that is able to heal with Curaga. When in desperate need of power, Terra-Xehanort gains access to the Dark Impulse [[Command Style]], as well as the [[Dark Volley]] and [[Ultima Cannon]] [[Shotlock]]s. Terra-Xehanort also appears to possess enhanced strength, able to effortlessly lift Aqua off the ground by the throat with one hand.
 
Xehanort also can call upon the [[Xehanort's Guardian|"Guardian"]], a [[Pureblood Heartless]]-like symbiote that floats behind him and serves as both a main source of offense and defense. Its great power also makes it capable of slamming opponents with physical blows, possessing targets, and firing dark energy projectiles. While "Ansem" (Xehanort's Heartless) can also use the Guardian in later installments, its first chronological appearance was during the original Xehanort's final battle with Aqua in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''. 
 
===Weapon===
After Master Xehanort possesses Terra towards the end of ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', Terra-Xehanort is able to wield Master Xehanort's Keyblade. The weapon has a spiky shaft, a gleaming eye found near the teeth, which look similar to a battle ax. It is black and silver in coloration, able to lock and unlock hearts, appearing similar to the [[Oblivion]] Keyblade. It also contains two demonic blue eyes; one above the handle and the other one on the head, similar to the [[Soul Eater]], [[Way to the Dawn]], and [[Void Gear]]. Terra-Xehanort uses the weapon to perform long, powerful combo attacks, as well as use several powerful desperation attacks. After Terra-Xehanort lost his memories, he lost his ability to wield this weapon.

==Trivia==
*In the Japanese version, Xehanort is voiced by Akio Ōtsuka, the son of [[wikipedia:Chikao Ōtsuka|Chikao Ōtsuka]], the Japanese voice actor of Master Xehanort. Tetsuya Nomura cast Chikao for this particular reason.
*Despite being a major antagonist of the Xehanort Saga, Xehanort did not serve as a boss until the series' sixth installment, ''Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep'', and never met Sora, the series' main protagonist, in person, meeting him only as Ansem and Xemnas.
*When Xemnas visits the Chamber of Repose, his password in the computer is "Another", and a secret boss in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix]]'' is named "[[No Heart]]", references to the two anagrams of Xehanort's name.
*The first few sentences that Terra-Xehanort says after coming into existence are a nearly word-for-word quote of what [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|Ansem]] says when Sora finally confronts him in the original ''Kingdom Hearts''.
 
==Quotes==
*''This heart belongs again to darkness. All worlds begin in darkness, and all so end. The heart is no different. Darkness sprouts within it. It grows, consumes it. Such is it's nature. In the end, every heart returns to the darkness whence it came.''
*''You have lost! Yield!''
*''Who.....am I?''
*''Terra's heart has been extinguished! Smothered by the darkness within him!''
*''This'll teach you! Get out of my heart!''
