The following is a '''list of known Keyblade Wielders''', defined as characters from the ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' series that have wielded a [[Keyblade]] in battle successfully. Characters who have held a Keyblade only for it to return to the hand of its true holder are not included in this list, as a Keyblade will typically refuse to be wielded by anyone without a strong enough heart.
{{cleanup|''KH3D'' information; fix image sizes; add roles to apprentices; correct tenses as appropriate (past tense should not be used for BbS). Expand ''KHUX'' information.}}
The following is a list of known Keyblade wielders, characters who have successfully wielded a [[Keyblade]] in battle. Not included are characters who have held a Keyblade only for it to return to the hand of its true holder, such as [[Leon]] or [[Jack Sparrow]], as a Keyblade will refuse to be wielded by anyone without a strong enough heart.

[[The Master of Masters]] is responsible for creating the Book of Prophecies using his gift of foresight, as well as for training his six apprentices, [[Luxu]], [[Ira]], [[Invi]], [[Aced]], [[Ava]], and [[Gula]].
<!--IT IS NOT CLEAR FROM THE SCENE WHETHER MoM ACTUALLY "OWNED" THE NO NAME IN THE SENSE THAT MAKES ONE A KEYBLADE WIELDER, OR IF HE JUST MADE IT TO BE IMMEDIATELY GIVEN TO LUXU; GOAT SYMBOLISM INDICATES IT IS LUXU'S AS MUCH AS THE OTHER FORETELLER BLADES ARE THEIRS. WAIT FOR CLARIFICATION FROM CANON ON WHETHER THAT COUNTS-->

===Master Xehanort===
[[File:Master Xehanort KHIII.png|x150px|left]]
[[Master Xehanort]] is a Keyblade Master that devoted himself to the darkness, wishing to obtain the [[χ-blade]] and thus enter [[Kingdom Hearts]]. To this end, he contrived numerous plots and manipulated many people into becoming pawns of his device. Eventually, he used his Keyblade to transfer his heart into [[Terra]]'s body, becoming [[Terra-Xehanort]] which eventually was split into [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]] and [[Xemnas]].
 
His time-traveling younger incarnation, [[Young Xehanort]], was initially unable to wield a Keyblade in ''Dream Drop Distance'', though when the reincarnated Master Xehanort possessed Young Xehanort's body when it was under attack by [[Mickey]] and [[Riku]] he was able to do so, and by the time he appeared in ''Kingdom Hearts III'' he could wield a Keyblade without aid.
 
The [[No Name]] Keyblade is claimed by [[Young Xehanort]] to be the oldest surviving Keyblade, and to possess a connection to the Keyblade War.<ref>"'''[[Destiny]]'''", '''Young Xehanort''': "But of all the Keyblades in existence, Master Xehanort's is the most ancient. That is my destiny. But it has yet.. to become a reality." / '''Braig'''" "Hey, it's okay. This is all connected to the ancient Keyblade War, isn't that right?"</ref> Its primary Keychain gives it a black form resembling the Foretellers' Keyblades, but with a goat<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-]]'', Story menu:''' "His hands rest upon the hilt of a Keyblade decorated with the emblem of a goat."</ref> in place of their respective animals. It contains a [[Gazing Eye]] on its head and keychain token. While possessing his younger self's body, Master Xehanort uses a Keychain that gives his Keyblade a shape resembling a fusion of its normal form and the {{c|No Name|KHBBS}} Keychain obtained by Terra, Ventus, and Aqua.

===Terra-Xehanort===
[[File:Terra-Xehanort KHIII.png|x150px|left]]
After Master Xehanort possesses Terra's body and becomes [[Terra-Xehanort]], he retains the ability to summon his original incarnation's Keyblade, though he wields it like Terra would. Terra-Xehanort used his original incarnation's  Keyblade to fight the Lingering Will and Aqua. After being defeated, Terra's heart begins to fight back, causing Xehanort to stab himself in order to rid himself of Terra, but accidentally sealing his memories and thus his ability to wield a Keyblade, ultimately forgetting everything but the name "Xehanort".
 
His Heartless, [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]] is unable to wield a Keyblade himself ordinarily, though he does briefly wield the [[Keyblade of heart]] while possessing the body of the nascent Keyblade wielder [[Riku]]. His Nobody, [[Xemnas]] may have also been able to wield a Keyblade, but preferred not to,<ref>[[Kingdom Hearts Ultimania|'''''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' Ultimania''']], '''Interviewer:''' "Roxas, the "Sora + Ventus" Nobody, was able to use a Keyblade. In contrast Xemnas, the "Terra + Master Xehanort" Nobody, wasn't able to use a Keyblade. Why is this?" / '''Tetsuya Nomura:''' "I'd rather that point remain a mystery. It's possible that he intentionally wasn't using one." [https://www.khinsider.com/forums/index.php?threads/bbs-ultimania-plot-mysteries-nomura-interview.147009/ Translation via Krexia].</ref> he did at one point utilize Master Xehanort's Keyblade Armor.

===Master Eraqus===
[[File:Master Eraqus KHIII.png|x150px|left]]
[[Master Eraqus]] is a Keyblade Master who protected the [[Land of Departure]] and served as [[Terra]], [[Ventus]], and [[Aqua]]'s teacher. After Aqua was named a Keyblade Master, Eraqus told her the secret responsibilities that came with such a title. Eraqus was slain by his former friend, [[Master Xehanort]].
 
Eraqus's Keyblade, the [[Master's Defender]], has a very simple design. His [[Keychain]] is the "Mark of Mastery" symbol. After Eraqus's murder, his Keyblade was passed on to Aqua.

===Master Aqua===
[[File:Aqua KHIII.png|x150px|left]]
Master [[Aqua]] is a Keyblade Master who operated before Sora ever embarked on his first journey. Her standard Keyblade is the [[Rainfell]], but it later transforms into the [[Stormfall]]. Aqua's Keyblades are of average length in comparison to Terra and Ventus's; she inherits Eraqus's Master's Defender after she finds the abandoned weapon in the Land of Departure, which is slowly being swallowed by the darkness. Aqua's attempt to save Terra after he falls into the Realm of Darkness causes Aqua to lose her Keyblade; the Master's Defender becomes her only weapon in the dark realm.
 
Aqua unintentionally [[bequeathed]] a Keyblade to Kairi in Radiant Garden; Kairi touched Aqua's Keyblade by mistake when attempting to get away from several Unversed at the entrance to Ansem the Wise's castle.

===Anti-Aqua===
[[File:Anti-Aqua KHIII.png|x150px|left]]
[[Anti-Aqua]] is Aqua after having been corrupted by the darkness beneath the End of Sea by [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]]. Despite having no Keyblade of her own, she is able to wield Mickey's Keyblade which she stole.

===Master Yen Sid===
[[File:Yen Sid KHIII.png|x150px|left]]
Master [[Yen Sid]] is a retired Keyblade Master who now watches over the Lanes Between and counsels with stars for guidance, and appears to be the original owner of Mickey's Star Seeker Keyblade. After the catastrophic battle at the [[Keyblade Graveyard]], Mickey returns the Star Seeker, believing that he has failed Yen Sid, but Yen Sid hands it back, encouraging him.
{{-}}
 
===Master Mickey Mouse===
<!--Nomura confirms that BbS is Mickey's MoM exam, and that he passes in that scene at the end:
 
http://www.kh2.co.uk/kingdom-hearts-3d/news/nomura-interview-on-kingdom-hearts-3d.php
-->
[[File:Mickey Mouse KHIII.png|x150px|left]]
As an apprentice to Master Yen Sid, [[Mickey]] wields the [[Star Seeker]], a gift to him from his master.{{fact}} His adventures with Ventus and Aqua actually comprise his [[Mark of Mastery exam]], and after their disappearance, he returns to the Mysterious Tower, feeling he has failed the exam, his friends, and his master. He returns the Star Seeker to Yen Sid, but Yen Sid returns it, revealing that Mickey has in fact passed his exam and become a Master.<!--cite to Famitsu, using quote from here: http://www.kh2.co.uk/kingdom-hearts-3d/news/nomura-interview-on-kingdom-hearts-3d.php-->
 
After the Heartless plague began and worlds began disappearing, Mickey set out to find a Keyblade from the [[Realm of Darkness]] in order to seal the Door to Darkness alongside a Keyblade from the Realm of Light, and stop the Heartless. He obtained the [[Kingdom Key D]] during that journey. The Kingdom Key D is identical to Sora's Kingdom Key, except that the colors are reversed, the hilt being silver and the blade gold. Some materials give this Keyblade the name "Kingdom Key DarkSide".<ref>[http://ssl.square-enix-shop.com/usa/detail.php?id=57 KINGDOM HEARTS MASTER ARMS KINGDOM KEY DarkSide]</ref>
 
While investigating [[Jiminy's Journal]] after the defeat of Xemnas, King Mickey returns to wielding his Star Seeker. He then switches back to the Kingdom Key D when he went to rescue Sora from Master Xehanort's clutches.
 
Mickey discovers that the Kingdom Key D, as a Keyblade of darkness, has the ability to open paths to the Realm of Darkness, but when the Heartless in the Realm of Darkness prove to be too strong, Mickey and Riku return to Yen Sid to fortify their equipment. Mickey wields the Star Cluster from this point on.
<!--source for fusing the two?
As a result, Mickey fuses Kingdom Key D with Star Seeker, creating Star Cluster, which he continues to wield on his journey to rescue Aqua and defeat Xehanort.-->

===Master Riku===
[[File:Riku KHIII.png|x150px|left]]
Terra [[bequeathed]] a Keyblade to [[Riku]] on the Destiny Islands before the destruction of the Land of Departure, and makes Riku promise to keep it a secret.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep}} Riku was the one originally chosen to wield the [[Kingdom Key]], but he was denied that when he chose to submit to darkness, weakening his heart and causing the Keyblade to choose Sora. Instead, Riku uses the [[Soul Eater]], a sword which grows more powerful when used with darkness, and the developing form of his Keyblade. When Sora first arrives at [[Hollow Bastion]], Riku is able to temporarily take the Keyblade as well, but Sora's heart proves to be the strongest, and he reclaims the Keyblade from Riku. After being possessed by [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]], Riku is used as a wielder for the incomplete [[Keyblade of heart]], which Xehanort had forged from the hearts of six of the seven [[Princesses of Heart]]. However, this Keyblade is destroyed after Riku is defeated by Sora, who uses the Keyblade to free Kairi's heart from his body.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts}}
 
When Riku encounters Roxas in The World That Never Was, he is again able to temporarily wield a Keyblade, Roxas's Oblivion. However, while as a Keyblade wielder he is able to fight with the weapon, it was not his, and Roxas soon reclaims it.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days}}
 
Riku's Soul Eater eventually matures into the [[Way to the Dawn]], his true Keyblade. This Keyblade represents Riku's nature as a being of light and darkness in both name and form. Riku was also able to summon a second Keyblade in the form of the [[Destiny's Embrace]], which he gives to Kairi as her permanent Keyblade.<ref>'''''[[Director's Secret Report XIII]]''''', p. 28; '''Tetsuya Nomura''': "There isn't just one Keyblade for the side of light and one for darkness. There are as many Keyblades in existence as there are hearts qualified to wield them. At this stage, the only requirement that has been made clear is that someone must have a "strong heart", but there are other requirements that haven't been spelled out yet which I plan to reveal another time when I have the chance. Riku's Way to the Dawn and the Keyblade Kairi wields are of the same nature as Sora's Keyblade. However, what with one having developed with the Soul Eater as intermediary and one having been handed to Kairi by Riku, I would like you to think that something not fully explained, outside the usual method of acquirement, is going on here." [https://www.khinsider.com/news/A-Look-Back-Director-s-Secret-Report-XIII-4883 Translation via Goldpanner]</ref>{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts II}}
 
After King Mickey informs Master Yen Sid of the secrets that Ansem and Naminé hid within Jiminy's Journal, Yen Sid invites Riku and Sora to take the Mark of Mastery exam, but only Riku passes.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance}}
 
When Riku and Mickey go to the Realm of Darkness to find Aqua, they are attacked by a [[Demon Tower]], which destroys Riku's Way to the Dawn. Riku leaves it there for the [[Riku Replica]], whom he refers to as "the other me." Upon returning to Yen Sid's tower, he obtains his new Keyblade, [[Braveheart]].

===Other Players===
Other Players appear in ''[[Kingdom Hearts χ]]'', sometimes fighting alongside the main Player as a member of their Union, other times competing against them as members of other Unions. These Players generally wield a basic Starlight Keyblade, though some instances wield other Keyblades.
 
As the Foreteller explains the strength of the Union to the Player, six of their fellow Union members show up to help fight the Darkside that just appeared.{{storylink|Quest 3: Combat 102}} After the Player returns to Daybreak Town due to the outbreak of new [[Neoshadow]] Heartless,<!--when?--> three of these members request his help as they exterminate the fiends across the city.{{storylink|Quest 231: A New Breed}}
<!--401-411
 
420-->
 
The six original members also attend the Weekly Solo Rankings parades alongside seven additional members, with eight of them lining the avenue<!--room name?--> and, in ''Kingdom Hearts χ[chi]'', five of them following the Player. In ''Kingdom Hearts χ[chi]'', eight of these, alongside three additional members, represent both parties in the daily Team Battle skirmishes.

===Sora===
===Sora===
[[Image:Kingdom Key.png|thumb|right|150px|Sora's Keyblade]]
[[File:Sora 03 KHIII.png|x150px|left]]
The [[Kingdom Key]] is [[Sora|Sora's]] default Keyblade, which appeared to him as his home world, [[Destiny Islands]], was being consumed by the darkness. A Keyblade from the [[Realm of Light]], its default [[keychain]] is a small set of three silver circles that form the symbol most commonly associated with [[King Mickey|Mickey Mouse]]. It is commonly referred to within the game as, quite simply, "the Keyblade". Sora is also able to summon his Keyblade in a flash of light, as seen during his opening conversation with [[Leon]] in [[Traverse Town]] and during his fight against [[Roxas]] in [[The World That Never Was]]. And also in many cutscenes during Re:Chain of Memories
[[Sora]] gained the ability to wield the Keyblade when Riku succumbed to the darkness in order to leave the [[Destiny Islands]]. The Keyblade he had been bequeathed by Terra rejected him and passed to the next closest vessel, which happened to be Sora. By joining his heart with Ventus's Sora also gained the ability to use Ventus's Keyblade and, by extension, dual wield. Sora has been recognized as having the skill to become a Keyblade Master, and is even often informally referred to as one, but has not officially received the title. [[Sora's Heartless]] was also able to continue utilizing his Keyblade after Kairi helped him to regain physical form.
 
Sora's Keyblade is a Keyblade from the [[Realm of Light]], and it appears before him as his home world, Destiny Islands, is consumed by the Heartless. Its default form is the [[Kingdom Key]], which uses a {{w|Hidden Mickey}} as its token.
 
Sora is sometimes able to use other wielders' Keyblades; for example, when fighting [[Roxas]] he is able to steal Roxas's Oathkeeper and Oblivion, for a total of three Keyblades, and at one point during their final battle with [[Xemnas]], Riku lends his [[Way to the Dawn]] to Sora.
 
[[Armored Ventus Nightmare]] is Sora clad in Ventus's Keyblade Armor. When Riku travels to Sora's Dive to the Heart, the Armored Ventus Nightmare appears out of the darkness and engages him in battle. As Armored Ventus Nightmare, Sora continues to wield the Kingdom Key, though it has been corrupted by darkness.

===Roxas===
[[File:Roxas KHIII.png|x150px|left]]
As the [[Nobody]] of Sora, [[Roxas]] is also able to wield the Kingdom Key. In fact, Roxas was able to wield the Keyblade at the same time as Sora because his Keyblade was "lost" by Sora in [[Castle Oblivion]]. As the "Key of Destiny" of [[Organization XIII]], Roxas is the only member able to actually collect hearts. Like the other Organization members, Roxas is able to modify the form of his weapon using [[Gears]].
 
In order to duplicate this ability, and to replace Roxas with an even more malleable puppet, the Organization created the Replica, Xion. Xion gradually leeches Roxas's powers over the Keyblade, but when the two are forced into mortal combat, Roxas eventually defeats her and reabsorbs his lost powers. This awakens his latent [[Synch Blade]] ability, in which he is able to wield both the [[Oathkeeper]] and [[Oblivion]], which represent Sora's memories of Kairi and Riku.
 
Due to the constant lies the Organization had been feeding him about Xion and himself, Roxas leaves the group and eventually returns to Sora, leading them to attempt to use Sora's Keyblade for their own goals.

===Xion===
[[File:Xion KHIII.png|x150px|left]]
[[Xion]], the fourteenth member of [[Organization XIII]], can wield [[Roxas]]'s Keyblade due to the fact that her [[Replica]] body is intended to siphon his powers; however, the Keyblade she normally wields is nothing more than a sham. She is created from the memories belonging to Sora that Roxas holds. As a being created out of memories, she was able to use the Kingdom Key to manipulate the power of light in the same way that Sora and Roxas can. When acting as a member of the [[real Organization XIII]] and as one of the [[Guardians of Light]], she inhabits a new replica body and utilizes a real Keyblade.

Sora's key is repeatedly shown to possess the ability to seal [[Keyhole]]s, though it is yet to be revealed as to whether any other Keyblades possess this same power, however it is presumable that they do, as the King's Keyblade was used in tandem with Sora's to seal the [[Door to Darkness]] at the end of ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]''.
===Data-Sora===
[[File:Data-Sora KHREC.png|x150px|left]]
[[Data-Sora]] wields the Kingdom Key. He utilizes this mighty blade to fend off Heartless and [[Bug Blox]]. Data-Sora gains a data Keyblade in the data [[Awakening]], but loses it to the real [[Maleficent]] in data [[Agrabah]]. However, the strength of his heart allows him to gain a real Keyblade in data [[Hollow Bastion]].


===Riku===
{|class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" border="0" style="width:100%"
[[Image:Riku Way to Dawn.png|thumb|right|170px|Riku's Keyblade]]
!style="width:16em; text-align:left"|Show Keyblades
Riku has struggled to wield the Keyblade since he was originally entitled to the Kingdom Key at the beginning of the first game, but by ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', he finally acquired his own Keyblade, [[Way to the Dawn]]. It seems to be an evolved [[Soul Eater]], which was formed from the darkness in his heart, but not much is clear about this Keyblade. It is speculated that the Keyblade could have been used as a median considering its given appearance. The Way to the Dawn is modeled to reflect Riku's abilities of both light and darkness, bearing angelic and demonic wings on both its blade and its handle. It also appears to have multiple crosses lodged in the Keychain, and it bears a heart symbol that closely resembles the [[Heartless]] emblem.
|-
[[Image:Dark Keyblade.jpg|thumb|150px|left|The Dark Keyblade]]
|colspan="2"|
At the beginning of ''Kingdom Hearts'', [[Riku]] was entitled wielder of the Kingdom Key of the [[Realm of Light]], but when [[Riku]] chose Darkness over Light, the Darkness weakened his heart, causing the Keyblade to pass on to Sora. In [[Hollow Bastion]], Riku successfully acquires Sora's Keyblade, but ultimately loses it again when Donald and Goofy, who were under orders from [[King Mickey]] to follow the Keyblade Master (which was now Riku), chose their friendship with Sora over the King's orders, which strengthens Sora's heart and allows him to reclaim the Keyblade. After this defeat, Riku allowed the Darkness to completely overtake him, becoming possessed by [[Xehanort's Heartless]]. Xehanort's Heartless then used the hearts of six of the seven [[Princesses of Heart]] to construct what is commonly refered to as the [[Dark Keyblade]], and used Riku as a medium to wield it.

===Kairi===
[[File:Kairi's Keyblade.jpg|thumb|100px|Kairi's unnamed Keyblade.]]
[[File:Kairi 02 KHIII.png|x150px|left]]
[[Kairi]]'s [[Kairi's Keyblade|currently-unnamed Keyblade]] was given to her by Riku in [[The World That Never Was]]. Kairi's Keyblade is delicate looking and sports a floral design. Kairi used this Keyblade to fight against the Heartless for one battle in The World That Never Was. The complete reason Kairi was able to wield a Keyblade is unknown, but Nomura has stated that it is in part due to the strength of her heart. Nomura has said the scene in which Riku gives her a Keyblade hints at something. It is assumed that this is the Keyblade that represents Destiny Islands, given its floral design and the [[Paopu Fruit]] Keychain. It should be noted however, that the Keyblade still actully belongs to Riku and he gave it to her to use, not own.
Kairi is able to wield a Keyblade because she touched [[Aqua]]'s Keyblade when she was a child, initiating a [[Bequeathing]].{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep}} At [[The World That Never Was]], [[Riku]] gives his [[Destiny's Embrace]] to [[Kairi]] so that she can help protect Sora.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts II}} Later, Yen Sid learns of Kairi's ability, and after Riku and Sora's [[Mark of Mastery exam]] he invites her to the Mysterious Tower so that she can also train to combat the reformed Organization XIII.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance}}
 
After Xehanort's defeat, Kairi encounters a figment of him in her dreams in [[The Final World]]. Xehanort is able to overpower her and force Destiny Embrace out of her hands, but she calls on Sora's Kingdom Key to defend her. Shortly after, a figment of Sora appears superimposed over her body and fights Xehanort. After waking up, Kairi asks to be further trained by Master Aqua.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory}}

He often uses a [[Formchange]] to transform his Keyblade into a pair of [[chakram]]s.

[[Roxas]], being Sora's [[Nobody]], also has the ability to use the Keyblade, though this is stated to only be because he is the Nobody of a Keyblade Master. This has earned him the name "Key of Destiny" from his fellow Organization members. The Keyblades that Roxas used and the memories that Sora once lost in [[Castle Oblivion]] are the same. Furthermore, these two both used the Keyblade at the same time. In order to learn why he could wield the Keyblade, Roxas betrayed [[Organization XIII]] and left in search of his true self.
The [[Replica Xehanort]] counterparts of [[Vanitas]], [[Terra-Xehanort]], [[Young Xehanort]], and [[Xion]] wield their respective primary Keyblades. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind]]'', the twelve Replica Xehanorts all wield the No Name Keyblade.

Roxas can use [[Oblivion]] and [[Oathkeeper]] to perform a "Clear Light" attack. Nomura stated that Roxas' ability to use two Keyblades means that Sora can, too, without the [[Drive Form]]s, due to the fact that Roxas has every ability that Sora has. Nomura has also said that the Keyblades represent Riku and Kairi, Riku being Oblivion, and Kairi being Oathkeeper. All of these things combined (when Roxas fuses with Sora) complete Sora.  
===AntiSora===

===Sora's Heartless===

[[Image:Mickey 's keyblade.png|thumb|right|150px|King Mickey's Kingdom Key]]
!style="width:16em; text-align:left"|Show Keyblades
[[King Mickey]]'s Keyblade is a Keyblade from the [[Realm of Darkness]] called "[[Kingdom Key D]]", which the King received sometime during his journey in that realm. It is identical to Sora's Keyblade, except the colors are reversed, the hilt being silver and the blade gold. The replica model letter opener called Mickey's Keyblade "Darkside", which is fitting as it is the Keyblade of the Realm of Darkness. Mickey used this Keyblade along with Sora's to seal the Door to Darkness, so it theoretically has the same powers as its Realm of Light counterpart. Also, the door had to have been locked from both sides, by opposite powers. The Kingdom Key D obviously provided the dark power while the original Kingdom Key provided the light.
|-
[[Image:Star seeker.png|thumb|left|125px|Star Seeker]]
|colspan="2"|
Prior to that, Mickey originally possessed the [[Star Seeker]] Keyblade, which is seen in ''[[Birth By Sleep]]''. Thus, it has been hinted that Mickey has been able to wield a Keyblade at least since his time as [[Yen Sid]]'s apprentice. Mickey also appears to wield the Star Seeker in ''[[Kingdom Hearts coded]]''.{{-}}

[[Terra]] is a previous Keyblade Master who battles Sora with this Keyblade in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+]]''. Although it seems to be very powerful, he also takes the [[Kingdom Key]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'''s secret movie. Because it lacks a chain, it is rumored to be a "false" Keyblade, however, this may only be speculation. [[Ven]] and [[Aqua]] also seem to have weapons like this one.
In ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'', during one of [[Zexion]]'s schemes, he disguises himself as Sora and uses a fake Kingdom Key to envelop Riku in light.
[[Image:Kh-bbs_02.jpg|thumb|150px|left|Translucent blocks surround Terra's arm as he summons his Keyblade]]
{|class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" border="0" style="width:100%"
Terra's Keyblade displays powers that none of the others possess, in that it can transform into different weapons (either that or Terra has the power to transform it). It can change into a whip, a jet-ski like object, a fast spinning cog-like weapon, and a massive cannon, among other formations. It is unknown if Terra will have this ability in Birth By Sleep or if it only appears in his boss battle with Sora.

Terra is shown summoning his Keyblade differently than how most wielders do; his appears surrounded by translucent blocks in a flash of light, similar to how Roxas summons the Kingdom Key for the first time in the [[Simulated Twilight Town]]. The appearance of some of his attacks shown in ''Final Mix+'' appear to be based on this.
===Data-Roxas===

Fittingly, [[Aqua]] wields a blue Keyblade (which has a slight resemblance to [[Oblivion]]). Like Terra's, it lacks a keychain. She prefers to use magic with it, as is shown in the secret ending, where she skillfully conjures [[Blizzard]], [[Thunder]], and [[Reflect]]. Her Keyblade is also seen along with her empty, damaged armor in a new scene in ''Final Mix+''. Whether or not this Keyblade has a name is as of yet unknown.{{-}}

[[Ven|Ven's]] Keyblade is uniquely designed to be held in reverse (although, in the gameplay trailer, he is seen holding it the normal way). Like Terra and Aqua's, it lacks a keychain. The blade resembles that of the [[Serendipitous Pair]], whilst the hilt bears a likeness to that of the [[Kingdom Key]].

[[Phantom Aqua]] is an illusory copy of Aqua created by her own heart. It wields an illusion of [[Master's Defender]].
When Master Xehanort freezes Ven and drops him off the cliff in the ''Final Mix+'' secret video, the Keyblade (which was frozen as well) shatters in half when it smashes into the rocks. Some theories speculate that when it shatters, one half (the handle) makes the Kingdom Key but this has been denied because in the video of Sunset Horizons Terra grabs the Kingdom Key while Ven grabs his own keyblade and the Way to the Dawn.

It is confirmed that [[Master Xehanort]] wields a Keyblade as well as his apprentice. His Keyblade has a double-edged appearance with a separated black blade, a black hand-guard and a head resembling a battle axe. It resembles the [[Oblivion]] keyblade somewhat, but with two shafts and a different head. Also, it contains a single eye above the handle, similar to that of the [[Soul Eater]] and [[Way to the Dawn]]. What power his Keyblade holds is shrouded in mystery; however, upon dropping Ven off of the cliff, he converts his Keyblade into an orb of dark energy, which is shot into the sky to summon Kingdom Hearts. His Keyblade possesses a keychain.{{-}}

Show Keyblades

Master Xehanort[edit]

Render of Master Xehanort

Master Xehanort is a Keyblade Master that devoted himself to the darkness, wishing to obtain the χ-blade and thus enter Kingdom Hearts. To this end, he contrived numerous plots and manipulated many people into becoming pawns of his device. Eventually, he used his Keyblade to transfer his heart into Terra's body, becoming Terra-Xehanort which eventually was split into Ansem, Seeker of Darkness and Xemnas.

His time-traveling younger incarnation, Young Xehanort, was initially unable to wield a Keyblade in Dream Drop Distance, though when the reincarnated Master Xehanort possessed Young Xehanort's body when it was under attack by Mickey and Riku he was able to do so, and by the time he appeared in Kingdom Hearts III he could wield a Keyblade without aid.

The No Name Keyblade is claimed by Young Xehanort to be the oldest surviving Keyblade, and to possess a connection to the Keyblade War.[1] Its primary Keychain gives it a black form resembling the Foretellers' Keyblades, but with a goat[2] in place of their respective animals. It contains a Gazing Eye on its head and keychain token. While possessing his younger self's body, Master Xehanort uses a Keychain that gives his Keyblade a shape resembling a fusion of its normal form and the No Name Keychain obtained by Terra, Ventus, and Aqua.

Show Keyblades

Terra-Xehanort[edit]

Terra-Xehanort (Black Coat)

After Master Xehanort possesses Terra's body and becomes Terra-Xehanort, he retains the ability to summon his original incarnation's Keyblade, though he wields it like Terra would. Terra-Xehanort used his original incarnation's Keyblade to fight the Lingering Will and Aqua. After being defeated, Terra's heart begins to fight back, causing Xehanort to stab himself in order to rid himself of Terra, but accidentally sealing his memories and thus his ability to wield a Keyblade, ultimately forgetting everything but the name "Xehanort".

His Heartless, Ansem, Seeker of Darkness is unable to wield a Keyblade himself ordinarily, though he does briefly wield the Keyblade of heart while possessing the body of the nascent Keyblade wielder Riku. His Nobody, Xemnas may have also been able to wield a Keyblade, but preferred not to,[3] he did at one point utilize Master Xehanort's Keyblade Armor.

Show Keyblades

Master Eraqus[edit]

Master Eraqus from the Ultimania

Master Eraqus is a Keyblade Master who protected the Land of Departure and served as Terra, Ventus, and Aqua's teacher. After Aqua was named a Keyblade Master, Eraqus told her the secret responsibilities that came with such a title. Eraqus was slain by his former friend, Master Xehanort.

Eraqus's Keyblade, the Master's Defender, has a very simple design. His Keychain is the "Mark of Mastery" symbol. After Eraqus's murder, his Keyblade was passed on to Aqua.

Show Keyblades

Master Aqua[edit]

Aqua

Master Aqua is a Keyblade Master who operated before Sora ever embarked on his first journey. Her standard Keyblade is the Rainfell, but it later transforms into the Stormfall. Aqua's Keyblades are of average length in comparison to Terra and Ventus's; she inherits Eraqus's Master's Defender after she finds the abandoned weapon in the Land of Departure, which is slowly being swallowed by the darkness. Aqua's attempt to save Terra after he falls into the Realm of Darkness causes Aqua to lose her Keyblade; the Master's Defender becomes her only weapon in the dark realm.

Aqua unintentionally bequeathed a Keyblade to Kairi in Radiant Garden; Kairi touched Aqua's Keyblade by mistake when attempting to get away from several Unversed at the entrance to Ansem the Wise's castle.

Show Keyblades

Anti-Aqua[edit]

Anti-Aqua KHIII.png

Anti-Aqua is Aqua after having been corrupted by the darkness beneath the End of Sea by Ansem, Seeker of Darkness. Despite having no Keyblade of her own, she is able to wield Mickey's Keyblade which she stole.

Show Keyblades

Master Yen Sid[edit]

Yen Sid KHIII.png

Master Yen Sid is a retired Keyblade Master who now watches over the Lanes Between and counsels with stars for guidance, and appears to be the original owner of Mickey's Star Seeker Keyblade. After the catastrophic battle at the Keyblade Graveyard, Mickey returns the Star Seeker, believing that he has failed Yen Sid, but Yen Sid hands it back, encouraging him.

Master Mickey Mouse[edit]

King Mickey, as he appears in Kingdom Hearts III

As an apprentice to Master Yen Sid, Mickey wields the Star Seeker, a gift to him from his master.[citation needed] His adventures with Ventus and Aqua actually comprise his Mark of Mastery exam, and after their disappearance, he returns to the Mysterious Tower, feeling he has failed the exam, his friends, and his master. He returns the Star Seeker to Yen Sid, but Yen Sid returns it, revealing that Mickey has in fact passed his exam and become a Master.

After the Heartless plague began and worlds began disappearing, Mickey set out to find a Keyblade from the Realm of Darkness in order to seal the Door to Darkness alongside a Keyblade from the Realm of Light, and stop the Heartless. He obtained the Kingdom Key D during that journey. The Kingdom Key D is identical to Sora's Kingdom Key, except that the colors are reversed, the hilt being silver and the blade gold. Some materials give this Keyblade the name "Kingdom Key DarkSide".[4]

While investigating Jiminy's Journal after the defeat of Xemnas, King Mickey returns to wielding his Star Seeker. He then switches back to the Kingdom Key D when he went to rescue Sora from Master Xehanort's clutches.

Mickey discovers that the Kingdom Key D, as a Keyblade of darkness, has the ability to open paths to the Realm of Darkness, but when the Heartless in the Realm of Darkness prove to be too strong, Mickey and Riku return to Yen Sid to fortify their equipment. Mickey wields the Star Cluster from this point on.

Show Keyblades

Master Riku[edit]

Riku, as he appears in Kingdom Hearts III

Terra bequeathed a Keyblade to Riku on the Destiny Islands before the destruction of the Land of Departure, and makes Riku promise to keep it a secret. Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Riku was the one originally chosen to wield the Kingdom Key, but he was denied that when he chose to submit to darkness, weakening his heart and causing the Keyblade to choose Sora. Instead, Riku uses the Soul Eater, a sword which grows more powerful when used with darkness, and the developing form of his Keyblade. When Sora first arrives at Hollow Bastion, Riku is able to temporarily take the Keyblade as well, but Sora's heart proves to be the strongest, and he reclaims the Keyblade from Riku. After being possessed by Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, Riku is used as a wielder for the incomplete Keyblade of heart, which Xehanort had forged from the hearts of six of the seven Princesses of Heart. However, this Keyblade is destroyed after Riku is defeated by Sora, who uses the Keyblade to free Kairi's heart from his body. Kingdom Hearts

When Riku encounters Roxas in The World That Never Was, he is again able to temporarily wield a Keyblade, Roxas's Oblivion. However, while as a Keyblade wielder he is able to fight with the weapon, it was not his, and Roxas soon reclaims it. Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days

Riku's Soul Eater eventually matures into the Way to the Dawn, his true Keyblade. This Keyblade represents Riku's nature as a being of light and darkness in both name and form. Riku was also able to summon a second Keyblade in the form of the Destiny's Embrace, which he gives to Kairi as her permanent Keyblade.[5] Kingdom Hearts II

After King Mickey informs Master Yen Sid of the secrets that Ansem and Naminé hid within Jiminy's Journal, Yen Sid invites Riku and Sora to take the Mark of Mastery exam, but only Riku passes. Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance

When Riku and Mickey go to the Realm of Darkness to find Aqua, they are attacked by a Demon Tower, which destroys Riku's Way to the Dawn. Riku leaves it there for the Riku Replica, whom he refers to as "the other me." Upon returning to Yen Sid's tower, he obtains his new Keyblade, Braveheart.

Other Players[edit]

Other Players appear in Kingdom Hearts χ, sometimes fighting alongside the main Player as a member of their Union, other times competing against them as members of other Unions. These Players generally wield a basic Starlight Keyblade, though some instances wield other Keyblades.

As the Foreteller explains the strength of the Union to the Player, six of their fellow Union members show up to help fight the Darkside that just appeared. Quest 3: Combat 102 After the Player returns to Daybreak Town due to the outbreak of new Neoshadow Heartless, three of these members request his help as they exterminate the fiends across the city. Quest 231: A New Breed

The six original members also attend the Weekly Solo Rankings parades alongside seven additional members, with eight of them lining the avenue and, in Kingdom Hearts χ[chi], five of them following the Player. In Kingdom Hearts χ[chi], eight of these, alongside three additional members, represent both parties in the daily Team Battle skirmishes.

Sora[edit]

New render of Sora from E3 2018/Kingdom Hearts Premiere Invitation events

Sora gained the ability to wield the Keyblade when Riku succumbed to the darkness in order to leave the Destiny Islands. The Keyblade he had been bequeathed by Terra rejected him and passed to the next closest vessel, which happened to be Sora. By joining his heart with Ventus's Sora also gained the ability to use Ventus's Keyblade and, by extension, dual wield. Sora has been recognized as having the skill to become a Keyblade Master, and is even often informally referred to as one, but has not officially received the title. Sora's Heartless was also able to continue utilizing his Keyblade after Kairi helped him to regain physical form.

Sora's Keyblade is a Keyblade from the Realm of Light, and it appears before him as his home world, Destiny Islands, is consumed by the Heartless. Its default form is the Kingdom Key, which uses a Hidden Mickey as its token.

Sora is sometimes able to use other wielders' Keyblades; for example, when fighting Roxas he is able to steal Roxas's Oathkeeper and Oblivion, for a total of three Keyblades, and at one point during their final battle with Xemnas, Riku lends his Way to the Dawn to Sora.

Armored Ventus Nightmare is Sora clad in Ventus's Keyblade Armor. When Riku travels to Sora's Dive to the Heart, the Armored Ventus Nightmare appears out of the darkness and engages him in battle. As Armored Ventus Nightmare, Sora continues to wield the Kingdom Key, though it has been corrupted by darkness.

Show Keyblades

Roxas[edit]

Roxas from the Ultimania

As the Nobody of Sora, Roxas is also able to wield the Kingdom Key. In fact, Roxas was able to wield the Keyblade at the same time as Sora because his Keyblade was "lost" by Sora in Castle Oblivion. As the "Key of Destiny" of Organization XIII, Roxas is the only member able to actually collect hearts. Like the other Organization members, Roxas is able to modify the form of his weapon using Gears.

In order to duplicate this ability, and to replace Roxas with an even more malleable puppet, the Organization created the Replica, Xion. Xion gradually leeches Roxas's powers over the Keyblade, but when the two are forced into mortal combat, Roxas eventually defeats her and reabsorbs his lost powers. This awakens his latent Synch Blade ability, in which he is able to wield both the Oathkeeper and Oblivion, which represent Sora's memories of Kairi and Riku.

Due to the constant lies the Organization had been feeding him about Xion and himself, Roxas leaves the group and eventually returns to Sora, leading them to attempt to use Sora's Keyblade for their own goals.

Show Keyblades

Xion[edit]

Xion from the Ultimania

Xion, the fourteenth member of Organization XIII, can wield Roxas's Keyblade due to the fact that her Replica body is intended to siphon his powers; however, the Keyblade she normally wields is nothing more than a sham. She is created from the memories belonging to Sora that Roxas holds. As a being created out of memories, she was able to use the Kingdom Key to manipulate the power of light in the same way that Sora and Roxas can. When acting as a member of the real Organization XIII and as one of the Guardians of Light, she inhabits a new replica body and utilizes a real Keyblade.

Kingdom Hearts II Later, Yen Sid learns of Kairi's ability, and after Riku and Sora's Mark of Mastery exam he invites her to the Mysterious Tower so that she can also train to combat the reformed Organization XIII. Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance

After Xehanort's defeat, Kairi encounters a figment of him in her dreams in The Final World. Xehanort is able to overpower her and force Destiny Embrace out of her hands, but she calls on Sora's Kingdom Key to defend her. Shortly after, a figment of Sora appears superimposed over her body and fights Xehanort. After waking up, Kairi asks to be further trained by Master Aqua. Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory

Notes and references[edit]

  1. ^ "Destiny", Young Xehanort: "But of all the Keyblades in existence, Master Xehanort's is the most ancient. That is my destiny. But it has yet.. to become a reality." / Braig" "Hey, it's okay. This is all connected to the ancient Keyblade War, isn't that right?"
  2. ^ Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-, Story menu: "His hands rest upon the hilt of a Keyblade decorated with the emblem of a goat."
  3. ^ Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Ultimania, Interviewer: "Roxas, the "Sora + Ventus" Nobody, was able to use a Keyblade. In contrast Xemnas, the "Terra + Master Xehanort" Nobody, wasn't able to use a Keyblade. Why is this?" / Tetsuya Nomura: "I'd rather that point remain a mystery. It's possible that he intentionally wasn't using one." Translation via Krexia.
  4. ^ KINGDOM HEARTS MASTER ARMS KINGDOM KEY DarkSide
  5. ^ Director's Secret Report XIII, p. 28; Tetsuya Nomura: "There isn't just one Keyblade for the side of light and one for darkness. There are as many Keyblades in existence as there are hearts qualified to wield them. At this stage, the only requirement that has been made clear is that someone must have a "strong heart", but there are other requirements that haven't been spelled out yet which I plan to reveal another time when I have the chance. Riku's Way to the Dawn and the Keyblade Kairi wields are of the same nature as Sora's Keyblade. However, what with one having developed with the Soul Eater as intermediary and one having been handed to Kairi by Riku, I would like you to think that something not fully explained, outside the usual method of acquirement, is going on here."
