An {{nihongo|'''Absent Silhouette'''|アブセント・シルエット|Abusento Shiruetto}} is a "ghost" version of a member of [[Organization XIII]] who had already been slain. It appears as an extra set of challenges in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+]]''. Whenever [[Sora]] challenges an Absent Silhouette to a battle, the Absent Silhouette takes the form of the slain member it represents and fights him. There are five Absent Silhouettes in total: [[Vexen]], [[Lexaeus]], [[Zexion]], [[Marluxia]] and [[Larxene]]. All of them died in ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]''. | An {{nihongo|'''Absent Silhouette'''|アブセント・シルエット|Abusento Shiruetto}} is a "ghost" version of a member of [[Organization XIII]] who had already been slain.

At first, the Absent Silhouette looks like a sphere of darkness with nothingness and the slain member's element circling around it; a picture of the slain member [[weapon]] is also featured in the center of the sphere. When Sora accepts its challenge, it warps Sora to wherever its member was last fought, with the exception of Marluxia's, which is the area of the second to last battle against him. There, it challenges him to an extremely difficult battle. | At first, the Absent Silhouette looks like a sphere of darkness with nothingness and the slain member's element circling around it; a picture of the slain member's [[weapon]] is also featured in the center of the sphere.

An Absent Silhouette usually bears a different fighting style than the member originally exhibited in ''Chain of Memories''. For example, Larxene often threw her [[Organization XIII Weapons#Larxene|knives]] and Zexion created copies of himself using the stolen skills of his opponent. However, in ''Final Mix+'', Larxene's Silhouette favors using copies of herself for speedy attacks from all directions, and Zexion's favors trapping his prey into a dimension within his weapon, a [[Organization XIII Weapons#Zexion|lexicon]]. | An Absent Silhouette usually bears a different fighting style than the member originally exhibited in ''Chain of Memories''.

One possible reason is that four of the five battles take place in worlds not present in the game. Another possible explanation is that they are placed in worlds that have no purpose after they are locked, and by placing Absent Silhouettes in the said worlds, they become more visitable. Another possibility is that they only appear where another member of the Organization has appeared, which is true for the five locations (Demyx, Luxord, Saïx, Xaldin, and Roxas). | ||
