About a decade prior to ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'', Aeleus was still one of six apprentices to the ruler and scientist of [[Radiant Garden]], Ansem the Wise, alongside [[Braig]], Dilan, Even, [[Ienzo]], and [[Xehanort]]. Worried that the [[darkness]] in people's [[heart]]s would eventually consume his world, Ansem began performing tests on Xehanort's heart. Eventually, he created a laboratory in his castle's basement for such experimentation. However, Aeleus and the other apprentices had their own intentions for the laboratory, and began conducting inhumane experiments on the human heart and the darkness within it. Such experimentation led to the creation of [[Heartless]]. Ansem quickly discovered their secret experiments, and immediately ordered them to stop. One day, after being advised to review their research data by [[Mickey Mouse|King Mickey]], Ansem found that the effects of their experiments had become irreversible.


Eventually, Aeleus and the other five apprentices dabbled too deep into darkness through their continued experiments. Aeleus, along with the others, was consumed by the darkness, producing a Heartless. However, the apprentices all had strong wills, and so Aeleus also became the [[Nobody]] Lexaeus. The six Nobodies formed [[Organization XIII]], and banished Ansem the Wise to the [[Realm of Darkness]].

As Lexaeus's human form, Aeleus looks nearly identical to his Nobody counterpart, aside from some minor alterations. He wears the same guard outfit as Dilan: a grey uniform with white cuffs and a red heart on the chest. There are blue hearts on the cuffs of both of his gloves. He wields an [[Axe Sword]] that appear to be much smaller than his Nobody's weapon, as well as being more reminiscent of an actual axe rather than a combination of an axe and a sword.

Aeleus is confirmed to appear in the upcoming game ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''. At the Tokyo Game Show 2009, Aeleus was seen in a new trailer for the upcoming PSP game. He assumes a guard-like position and uniform with [[Dilan]], whilst [[Even]] has a conversation with [[Ven]]. This trailer was the first appearance of the original beings of [[Organization XIII]] in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''.

==Notes and references==
Aeleus appears as his Nobody Lexaeus in ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories''. He works with two of Ansem the Wise's other former apprentices: [[Vexen]], who was Even, and [[Zexion]], who was Ienzo. Their goal is to stop [[Marluxia]], a much later member of the Organization, from using Sora to overthrow the Organization. To do so, Lexaeus appears to [[Riku]] while he is in [[Castle Oblivion]], attempting to make him give in to his Darkness. Riku refuses, and Lexaeus attacks him, planning to eliminate him if he cannot be manipulated. In the end, Lexaeus uses the last of his strength to swallow Riku in darkness, resulting in his own destruction. However, in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories]]'', [[Xehanort's Heartless]] takes over Riku, and vanquishes Lexaeus. Either way, Lexaeus fades into nothingness, ending the existence of Aeleus.

Story[edit]

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep[edit]

Aeleus and Dilan kick Isa and Lea out of Ansem's castle.

Aeleus appears with Dilan, both guarding Ansem's castle, Hollow Bastion, in Radiant Garden. He and Dilan meet Ventus, but keep him from getting inside the castle, telling him to leave before the monsters come out. Aeleus then spots an Unversed, and both guards begin to head after it as Ventus runs ahead of them. As the two move to follow him, Even approaches and openly wonders what will become of the castle if they left their posts. Aeleus begins to argue, but Even assures Ventus could handle it because he is "special". As Aeleus questions this, Dilan recalls their job to guard the castle, and the two return to their positions at the door.

Some time after Xehanort's defeat, Aeleus is present when Dilan throws Lea and Isa out of the castle.

Between Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep and Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days[edit]

About a decade prior to Kingdom Hearts, Aeleus was still one of six apprentices to the ruler and scientist of Radiant Garden, Ansem the Wise, alongside Braig, Dilan, Even, Ienzo, and Xehanort. Worried that the darkness in people's hearts would eventually consume his world, Ansem began performing tests on Xehanort's heart. Eventually, he created a laboratory in his castle's basement for such experimentation. However, Aeleus and the other apprentices had their own intentions for the laboratory, and began conducting inhumane experiments on the human heart and the darkness within it. Such experimentation led to the creation of Heartless. Ansem quickly discovered their secret experiments, and immediately ordered them to stop. One day, after being advised to review their research data by King Mickey, Ansem found that the effects of their experiments had become irreversible.

Eventually, Aeleus and the other five apprentices dabbled too deep into darkness through their continued experiments. Aeleus, along with the others, was consumed by the darkness, producing a Heartless. However, the apprentices all had strong wills, and so Aeleus also became the Nobody Lexaeus. The six Nobodies formed Organization XIII, and banished Ansem the Wise to the Realm of Darkness.

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance[edit]

Aeleus is revived, along with Dilan, Even and Ienzo.

Aeleus is restored following the demise of his Heartless and Lexaeus. He awakens within the Heartless Manufactory with Dilan, Even, Ienzo and Lea, and soon realizes that Braig and Isa are mysteriously absent. As Dilan and Even are still tired and unstable from their restoration, Aeleus has them rest until they've finally stabilized.

Kingdom Hearts III[edit]

Aeleus and Dilan escort Naminé out of the castle.

Aeleus appears alongside Ienzo on Sora's Gummiphone, but is reluctant to speak to Sora. Ienzo tells Aeleus that an incident between him and Roxas is in the past now,[?] but Aeleus is still reluctant.

He and Dilan later[citation needed] search the town for Even, who had gone missing. However, they are unable to find him. Aeleus reports this news back to Ienzo, who is currently discussing replicas with Riku and the King.

The night before the second Keyblade War, Aeleus and Dilan rush into the lab to see Ienzo with their former master Ansem the Wise, who has been returned to them by Demyx. As Ienzo apologies to Ansem for the apprentices' betrayal, Aeleus comforts a remorseful Dilan.

Following the final battle with Xehanort, Aeleus and Dilan in Radiant Garden watch as Naminé comes out of the lab after her examination by Ansem the Wise, Even, and Ienzo, when Riku arrives on a Gummi Ship to pick Naminé up.

Design[edit]

As Lexaeus's human form, Aeleus looks nearly identical to his Nobody counterpart, aside from some minor alterations. He wears the same guard outfit as Dilan: a grey uniform with white cuffs and a red heart on the chest. There are blue hearts on the cuffs of both of his gloves. He wields an Axe Sword that appear to be much smaller than his Nobody's weapon, as well as being more reminiscent of an actual axe rather than a combination of an axe and a sword.

Personality[edit]

Like with Dilan, Aeleus appears to be much more good-natured and noble than Lexaeus, although their outward personalities seem similar. He shows concern for Ventus when the latter volunteers to fight Trinity Armor alone, and is only stopped from following Ventus by Even, who orders him back to his post.

In Kingdom Hearts III, Aeleus appears to be remorseful of his actions as a Nobody, judging by his reluctance to speak with Sora and how he aided his friends in their quest in defeating Master Xehanort. Further, Aeleus indeed regretted how he and his fellow apprentices betrayed their teacher, Ansem, the Wise and thus, was able to make amends with his former master.

Notes and references[edit]

  1. ^ Aeleus's name is misspelled as "Eleus" in Secret Ansem's Report 3 within the North American version of Kingdom Hearts II, but was corrected to "Aeleus" in the Final Mix version.
