===''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''===
===Before ''Kingdom Hearts χ''===
{{Spoiler}}
{{c|Darkness|character}} originally had physical forms, but cast them off in order to attack hearts directly. These original Darknesses infected people's hearts and preyed on their negative emotions, giving rise to the first Pureblood Heartless.
[[Master Xehanort]] summoned several [[Neoshadow]]s to fight his apprentice at the time, [[Ventus]]. The Neoshadows overwhelmed him, allowing Master Xehanort to unlock Ven's heart.
 
===''Kingdom Hearts χ''===
With the incoming Keyblade War, a Nightmare Chirithy manipulated Keyblade wielders in an attempt to prevent them from fighting over [[Lux]]. However, the Dream Eater's actions caused opposite reaction, leading to them giving into darkness and being turned into [[Darklings]]. They continued their pursuit of Lux eventually coming for Skuld and Player but fled after a fight. Later on, the trio are absorbed by Nightmare Chirithy to do battle again, but ends in defeat. The Darklings' pursuit continued after crossing the world line and following the Dandelions into the data world. Inside the Clock Tower as glitches appear Player, Ephemer and Ventus are soon are surrounded by a Darkling who utters "not you...", which confuses the trio. Then a lone Darkling was followed by Ephemer and Player while traversing through the mysterious tunnel, still muttering the same phrase it did before. They do battle, and the Darkling runs further into the tunnel, with the pair following.
 
Ephemer continued to follow it through Game Central Station and into Hero's Duty, and once again reunites with Player despite defeating the Darkling for the third time; it still says "not you", leaving Ephemer perplexed about what it could mean. Before confronting it further, the Darkling gets eaten by a Cy-Bug, fusing them together then flies off as the pair chase after it and finally catching up to it, they manage to destroy it. Later, in Sugar Rush, after King Candy and the Cy-bugs are defeated, Player and Chirithy sensed that the Darkling is still around and sees that it has gotten much stronger since their last encounter. Finally, Chirithy asks the Darkling why it keeps following them if they are not the ones it wants but the creature doesn't answer and is destroyed once again. Remembering the Cy-Bugs behavior in Hero's Duty Chirithy wonders if the Darkling was drawn to the light of the Keyblade and was really after a Keyblade wielder.
 
During the confrontation with Darkness and the Union leaders, Darklings appear, around a comatose Ventus, seeing him as their target. He wakes up and uses the light within his heart to destroy them.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts Union χ|Kingdom Hearts Union χ [Cross]}}
 
Keyblade wielders fight both Pureblood and Emblem Heartless as they journey across the worlds to collect Lux. However, these are merely projections from the [[Book of Prophecies]], which contains records of future events, as true Emblem Heartless did not yet exist.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts Dark Road}}

===Between ''Kingdom Hearts Dark Road'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''===
In an attempt to draw out the darkness in the heart of his pupil, [[Ventus]], [[Master Xehanort]] summoned several [[Neoshadow]]s to fight him, but Ventus was overwhelmed and nearly destroyed by the Heartless instead.
 
===''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''===
[[File:Versus Dark Hide KHBBSFM.png|thumb|200px|left|Heartless living in the Realm of Darkness.]]
As [[Aqua]] wanders the [[Realm of Darkness]] following her battle with [[Terra-Xehanort]], she encounters a group of [[Darkside]]s. Although she initially summons [[Master's Defender]], she decides to let the Darksides come at her without resisting. However, Terra's and Ventus's Keyblades come to her rescue, a last symbol of hope from her old friends. Her spirit returning, and in hopes of returning to her home, Aqua presses on through the Realm of Darkness, along the way encountering many [[Pureblood Heartless]], including [[Shadow]]s, Neoshadows and [[Darkball]]s. During this time, she is stalked and attacked by the massive [[Dark Hide]], engaging it in combat and emerging victorious after a strenuous battle.
{{-}}


Much later, [[Aqua]] is sent to the [[Realm of Darkness]] following her battle with [[Xehanort]]. There, she encountered a pack of [[Darkside]] Heartless.

Aqua fights off numerous Purebloods in the Realm of Darkness, which included Darksides, Neoshadows, Shadows, and a huge swarm of Shadows called [[Demon Tower]]. Extremely rare elemental Heartless, such as [[Water Core]], [[Flame Core]], [[Earth Core]], and [[Fluttering]] attack Aqua as she journeys through the realm. While in the remains of [[Enchanted Dominion]], Aqua [[Flowmotion|railslides]] through a forest of thorns, evading the punches and energy blasts of numerous [[Darkside]]s. A swarm of Shadows called the [[Demon Tide]] attempts to attack [[Riku]] when he tries reaching the [[Door to Darkness]], but Aqua holds it off and ultimately destroys it as she renews her convictions to defeat the darkness.

[[Ansem the Wise]] suspected that his research was endangering the citizens of [[Radiant Garden]], so he ordered his apprentices to cease the experiments on the hearts immediately. However, his foremost apprentice, Xehanort, continued the experiments. He also convinced Ansem's other apprentices, [[Braig]], [[Dilan]], [[Even]], [[Aeleus]], and [[Ienzo]], to help him in his experiments on the heart, but eventually, the experiments drove them mad, and they descended to Darkness, then they revolted against their teacher, Ansem, and sent him through the Realm of Darkness, where he was driven by revenge and became the mastermind, [[DiZ]].  
[[File:Heart Research KHII.png|thumb|left|The research Ansem and his apprentices produced.]]<!--what is the exact source of this?-->
Building on [[Ansem the Wise]]'s research into the nature of the heart, two of his apprentices, Xehanort and Master Xehanort's co-conspirator, [[Braig]], experimented on people's hearts without his knowledge, convincing Ansem's other apprentices, [[Dilan]], [[Even]], [[Aeleus]], and [[Ienzo]], to assist them.


After experimenting further, they  discovered the Heartless, who devour their hearts, as well as the citizens of Radiant Garden. The Heartless then began to thrive and spread to other worlds, devouring innocent people, and driving the worlds they invade into darkness. After a while, Maleficent makes the remains of Radiant Garden her new headquarters, renaming the twisted remains [[Hollow Bastion]], and takes control of the Heartless.
During the experiments, Xehanort discovered the Heartless and named them.{{storylink|Ansem's Report 3}} One of them leads him to the heart of [[Radiant Garden]]. After further study, he built the Heartless Manufactory inside Ansem's castle and created the first artificial [[Emblem Heartless]].{{storylink|Ansem's Report 8}}


===''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]''===
After discovering his apprentices' experiments and realizing his error in trying to interfere with the nature of the heart, Ansem the Wise ordered his apprentices to cease their research. However, they overthrew Ansem, banishing him to the Realm of Darkness while Xehanort took his name. Their continued experiments eventually led the group to lose their hearts, turning them into Heartless and [[Nobodies]], and Xehanort's Heartless, [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]], began planning to find and take the power of [[Kingdom Hearts]].
The Heartless appear inside [[Sora]]'s [[Awakening]] as preparation for the coming invasion of [[Destiny Islands]]. They succeed in separating [[Riku]] from the world, and then they steal [[Kairi]]'s heart, they devoured Destiny Islands and everyone that lived on the islands, all except Sora, who slew many of them with the [[Keyblade]]. After he escaped, he met [[Leon]] and [[Yuffie]], who told him about the Heartless, what creates them and what they hunger for, the Darkness in the heart of every living being. This leads Sora to fighting the Heartless alongside [[Donald Duck]] and [[Goofy]] in an effort to save the worlds.  


The Heartless were actually being used by [[Xehanort's Heartless]], who renamed himself as Ansem: The Seeker of Darkness, and [[Maleficent]], who sought to use their power to rule over all worlds. However, Maleficent's plans were thwarted by Xehanort, who possessed Riku's body to pierce her body with a Keyblade formed from the Princesses Hearts, and change her into her [[Maleficent (Dragon)|dark ego]]. After she was beaten By Sora, Xehanort said that she was actually being used by the Heartless.  
In the meantime, the Heartless consumed most of the world, leaving only [[Hollow Bastion]], and they began spreading to other worlds. Ansem began manipulating [[Maleficent]] and her allies to use the Heartless in their bid to conquer all worlds and take Kingdom Hearts. In this conquest, [[Enchanted Dominion]], [[Castle of Dreams]], [[Dwarf Woodlands]], [[The Land of Dragons]], [[Pride Lands]], [[Beast's Castle]], [[La Cité des Cloches]], [[Prankster's Paradise]], [[The Grid]], [[Country of the Musketeers]] and [[Symphony of Sorcery]] were destroyed by the Heartless, along with the homes of [[Bambi]], [[Dumbo]], [[Pongo and Perdita]], and the [[99 Puppies]].


Sora rushes to where Kairi was, and then encountered Xehanort, who explained that Kairi's heart was inside of Sora the whole time, he also told his false name (Ansem) to Sora. Xehanort needed Kairi's heart so that the Heartless could devour the worlds, but Sora stood against him, and defeated him. Xehanort fell, but he took Riku along with him as his vessel, After restoring Kairi, Sora went out to save Riku from Xehanort and the rest of the Heartless in [[End of the World]].  
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
[[File:Leon 01 KH.png|thumb|200px|A Heartless steals a man's heart.]]
Maleficent sends the Heartless to invade many worlds, to consume their hearts and search for the seven [[Princesses of Heart]]. Many of her allies use the Heartless to advance their own plans, in many cases to conquer their own worlds.


Xehanort used the Heartless to try and annihilate Sora so that he could unlock [[Kingdom Hearts (world)|Kingdom Hearts]], but he was bested once again, Xehanort proceeded to reaching out to Kingdom Hearts to try and control the darkness from within, however, Sora spoke out, saying that he was wrong, and in actuality, Kingdom Hearts was made of [[Light]]. The light shined through toward Xehanort, destroying his dark-fused body, giving Sora enough time to try and seal the door.
[[Sora]] encounters Heartless within his [[Dive to the Heart]], including a Darkside. A few days later, when [[Riku]] opens the door to the heart of the world, the Heartless invade en masse, and they succeed in devouring the [[Destiny Islands|islands]], despite Sora obtaining the [[Keyblade]] and attempting to stop them.


===''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]''===
After he escapes to [[Traverse Town]], Sora meets [[Leon]] and [[Yuffie]], who explain to him the nature of the Heartless and tell him his Keyblade both draws them to him and is the best weapon against them. This leads Sora to fight the Heartless alongside [[Donald Duck]] and [[Goofy]], in an effort to save the worlds.  
The Heartless appear inside [[Castle Oblivion]] as pawns of [[Organization XIII]]. It is unknown if the Heartless in the castle are crafted from Sora's memories or they are real Heartless. The Organization could have been using Sora even then to release the hearts from the Heartless.

===''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''===
Sora eventually learns that the Heartless are being used by Maleficent to capture the seven Princesses of Heart and open the door to Kingdom Hearts, so that she and her allies can rule over all worlds. However, Ansem, possessing Riku's body, uses the [[Keyblade of heart]] to drown Maleficent in her own darkness and transform her into her dragon form. After she is destroyed by Sora, Ansem reveals that, like the other villains, she was being used by the Heartless.
[[Roxas]] was sent by [[Xemnas]], Xehanort's [[Nobody]], to work with other Organization members and release the hearts of every Heartless that he encounters. Since only Emblem Heartless release hearts, the Organization only seeks to slay their kind; Pureblood Heartless are seen only as obstacles.

===''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''===
[[File:Sealing the Keyhole Hollow Bastion 01 KH.png|thumb|200px|left|Sora seals the last Keyhole.]]
After Sora awakens in [[Twilight Town]], he travels to the [[Mysterious Tower]], where he meet's [[Pete]], Maleficent's second in command, who is working to try and make an army of Heartless for Maleficent to use. After a skirmish with a couple of Heartless, Sora realizes that the worlds are still in danger. He meets with the Tower's master, [[Yen Sid]], who explains Sora's new mission to him, though the Heartless have returned, they are not the main enemy this time, the Nobodies were. In almost every world, the Heartless appear alongside Pete, Maleficent, and one of the Disney villains. It was later revealed by [[Axel]] during a war on Hollow Bastion that Organization XIII was using Sora to release the hearts of every Heartless he destroyed so that the Organization could take them and create their own Kingdom Hearts.  
Ansem challenges Sora in order to claim [[Kairi]]'s heart and complete the [[Final Keyhole]], but Sora defeats him. Sora then uses Ansem's Keyblade on himself, in order to free Kairi's heart and complete the Keyhole so it can be sealed. Although he succeeds, he loses his own heart and becomes a Shadow Heartless in the process. Kairi's [[light]] restores Sora to his human form, and he soon travels to the [[End of the World]] to stop Ansem from reaching Kingdom Hearts.
 
Ansem uses a great many Heartless in an effort to defeat Sora, but he is finally beaten in front of the [[Door to Darkness]]. Ansem reaches out to Kingdom Hearts to try and control the darkness he expects within, but he is destroyed by the light of Kingdom Hearts.
 
In order to stop an immeasurable wave of Heartless from emerging through the Door to Darkness, Sora closes and locks the door with the help of Riku and [[Mickey Mouse|Mickey]], who are stuck in the Realm of Darkness.

===''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''===
[[File:Darkness Released 01 KHRECOM.png|200px|thumb|Xehanort's Heartless, Ansem, is one of the only ones to have a mind.]]
The Heartless appear inside [[Castle Oblivion]], variously formed either from Sora's memories or Riku's darkness as they seek to indoctrinate the two boys.
 
In the memory-copy of [[Agrabah]], the Heartless caused enough mayhem for [[Jafar]] to take control of the city, and attempt to force [[Aladdin]] to waste his wishes stopping them.
 
In the memory-copy of [[Halloween Town]], the Heartless appeared as a result of [[Dr. Finkelstein]] creating a potion to retrieve true memories.
 
[[Axel]], due to his friendship with Sora's Nobody, [[Roxas]], is fascinated by [[Sora's Heartless]], as Sora was able to hold onto his mind and feelings when a Heartless should be mindless and instinctual, something that only one other Heartless, [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|Ansem]], was able to accomplish.
{{-}}


After knowing this, Sora heads for the Organization's base, [[The World That Never Was]], to try and destroy their Kingdom Hearts. After Ansem sacrificed himself to destroy Kingdom Hearts, the Heartless began moving together inside the Castle that Never Was, to seek out whatever they could to eat. Maleficent and Pete fought off the Heartless while Sora, Kairi, Riku, and the others went on to defeat Xemnas.
===''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''===
[[File:Heartless 01 KHD.png|thumb|left|Marluxia teaches Roxas about the Heartless.]]
After Maleficent and Ansem's defeat, the Heartless run wild without a guiding will behind them, although villains like [[Pete]] are able to summon and control small groups of them. As a Keyblade-wielding member of [[Organization XIII]], [[Roxas]] is often sent on missions to defeat them and collect hearts. During one of his early missions, [[Marluxia]] introduces Roxas to fighting Heartless, explaining to him the difference between Pureblood Heartless, which contain no hearts, and Emblem Heartless, which release hearts upon defeat. He tells Roxas that the hearts he collects will gather to form Kingdom Hearts, the ultimate goal of the Organization. Marluxia and [[Zexion]] emphasize the importance of Roxas's role in collecting hearts for the Organization's purposes. [[Xemnas]] creates [[Xion]] to duplicate Roxas's abilities, as a failsafe should Roxas have proved inadequate for the purpose of collecting hearts.


===''[[Kingdom Hearts coded]]''===
After Xion's death, Roxas attempts to reach the Organization's Kingdom Hearts in the hopes of bringing her back. However, he is stopped by numerous [[Neoshadow]]s, which he slays with the help of Riku.
The Heartless appear once again as enemies inside a digital Journal.

==Origin==
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
According to legend, the people of the universe once lived in harmony on one world, with their hearts full of light. Unfortunately, they began to selfishly fight over the light, and darkness grew within their hearts, covering everything and destroying the world. The light survived in the hearts of children, who were able to rebuild the broken fragments of the one world into many, smaller [[world]]s. However, the true light was still hidden in the darkness, so the worlds remained separate.<ref>'''''Kingdom Hearts''''', '''Kairi’s Grandmother''': "Long ago, people lived in peace, bathed in the warmth of light. Everyone loved the light. Then people began to fight over it. They wanted to keep it for themselves. And darkness was born in their hearts. The darkness spread, swallowing the light and many people’s hearts. It covered everything, and the world disappeared. But small fragments of light survived...in the hearts of children. With these fragments of light, children rebuilt the lost world. It’s the world we live in now. But the true light sleeps, deep within the darkness. That’s why the worlds are still scattered, divided from each other. But someday, a door to the innermost darkness will open. And the true light will return. So, listen, child. Even in the deepest darkness, there will always be a light to guide you. Believe in the light, and the darkness will never defeat you. Your heart will shine with its power and push the darkness away. Do you understand, Kairi?"</ref> As manifestations of that Darkness, natural Heartless have existed within the Realm of Darkness ever since. However, due to the walls between the worlds, they could initially only enter the Realm of Light when summoned.
[[File:Ansem's Apprentice 02 KHII.png|200px|thumb|Sora charges into battle against the Heartless.]]
After Sora awakens in [[Twilight Town]], he travels to the [[Mysterious Tower]], where he meets Pete, Maleficent's second in command, who is working to make an army of Heartless for Maleficent's use. After defeating his squad of Heartless, Sora realizes that the worlds are still in danger. He meets with the Tower's master, [[Yen Sid]], who explains Sora's new mission, telling him that although Sora and company prevented a catastrophic invasion of the [[Realm of Light]] by Heartless, there are still many Heartless throughout the worlds. Maleficent and Pete continue to use the Heartless in their attempts to conquer worlds, and as [[Axel]] reveals during the [[Battle of the 1000 Heartless]], Organization XIII is using Sora to release the hearts of every Heartless he destroys to create their own Kingdom Hearts.


About a decade before the events of ''Kingdom Hearts'', [[Ansem the Wise]], king of [[Radiant Garden]], took it upon himself to study the darkness within human hearts, so he and his apprentices, [[Xehanort]], [[Braig]], [[Dilan]], [[Even]], [[Aeleus]], and [[Ienzo]], conducted experiments on the heart beneath his castle.{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Ansem Report 1|Ansem Report 1}} While these tests began with simple psychological tests on willing subjects like Xehanort{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Secret Ansem Report 1|Secret Ansem Report 1}}, they quickly snowballed and eventually caused their subjects' hearts to collapse, producing a Heartless.{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Ansem Report 2|Ansem Report 2}} Unable at first to determine what they were, Xehanort named them "Heartless" due to their apparent lack of emotion.{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Ansem Report 3|Ansem Report 3}} After finding that the Heartless were naturally drawn to the worlds' [[Keyhole]]s{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Ansem Report 5|Ansem Report 5}}, he invented a machine within the [[Hollow Bastion#Heartless Manufactory|Heartless Manufactory]] that recreated the conditions which naturally spawned Heartless in order to create artificial Heartless. In order to differentiate the natural and artificial Heartless, Xehanort set the machine to mark its creations with the castle's emblem, and named the two types "Pureblood" and "Emblem", respectively.{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Ansem Report 8|Ansem Report 8}}
In [[Halloween Town]], [[Dr. Finkelstein]] creates an "artificial" Heartless called [[The Experiment]]. When it comes to life, it chases presents, hoping that the joy of the presents would be enough to give it a heart.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''''', '''Sora:''' "Santa Claus thinks maybe it left because it was trying to find a heart." / '''Dr. Finkelstein:''' "That's quite possible. Unlike my Sally, it wasn't equipped with a heart." / '''Sora:''' "But if it wanted a heart, why was it going around stealing all those Christmas presents?" / '''Sally:''' Maybe because...presents are a way to give your heart to someone special.</ref> The Experiment is eventually defeated by Sora, Donald, and Goofy when they arrive in Halloween Town the second time.


After a visit from [[King Mickey Mouse]] of [[Disney Castle]], Ansem officially ceased his experiments{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Secret Ansem Report 2|Secret Ansem Report 2}}, but they continued to be performed by his apprentices, while he was exiled by them to the [[Realm of Nothingness]].{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Secret Ansem Report 3|Secret Ansem Report 3}}
With this knowledge, Sora heads for the Organization's base world, [[The World That Never Was]], to stop their plans for Kingdom Hearts. Inside the [[Castle That Never Was]], [[Saïx]] shows off the Organization's Kingdom Hearts to Sora's group, and he summons a great many Shadows to attack.


To further their research into Heartless, as well as the [[Keyblade]] and the [[Princesses of Heart]], the apprentices cast off their bodies and surrendered their hearts to darkness, giving birth to their Heartless and Nobodies. Against expectations, [[Xehanort's Heartless]] retained his human form{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Ansem Report 12|Ansem Report 12}}, as did the apprentices' [[Organization XIII|Nobodies]]. Eventually, the witch [[Maleficent]] learned of the Heartless and began using them in her quest for power, and gave the power to lead the Heartless to those who joined her in her quest.  
Kingdom Hearts is damaged when Ansem the Wise fails to encode it as data, causing hearts to rain down over the Dark City, spawning a great swarm of Shadows that attack the castle. Maleficent and Pete take on the swarm, sending Sora and company to defeat [[Xemnas]], atop the castle.


Nine years before the events of ''Kingdom Hearts'', she sent a swarm of Heartless to conquer the Radiant Garden, causing it to be lost to darkness so completely that only the castle that became known as Hollow Bastion remained, even in the survivor's memories.<ref>'''''Kingdom Hearts''''', '''Leon''': "[Maleficent's] the reason this town is full of Heartless. Don’t take her lightly." / '''Aerith''': "She’s been using the Heartless for years." / '''Leon''': "We lost our world, thanks to her." / '''Cid''': "One day, a swarm of Heartless took over our world!" / '''Leon''': "That was nine years ago."</ref><!--KH2 Radiant Garden reveal-->
===''Kingdom Hearts coded''===
Digital representations of the Heartless appear within the [[datascape]] of [[Jiminy Cricket|Jiminy]]'s [[Jiminy's Journal|Journal]], just as they had appeared in the real worlds. The bugs infecting the Journal also appear as various species of Heartless. The source of the bugs, the digital representation of [[Sora's Heartless]], absorbs the defeated Heartless in order to increase in power, but it is defeated by [[Data-Sora]] and King Mickey, and the journal is repaired.


During this time, whether from the machinations of Ansem's apprentices or Maleficent herself, the Heartless became able to invade the Realm of Light at their own choosing, and whole worlds began disappearing to the darkness.
===''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance''===
Before beginning Sora and Riku's [[Mark of Mastery exam]], Yen Sid explains that the [[Dream Eater]]s are manifestations of darkness that serve as the [[Sleeping Worlds]]' counterpart to the Heartless.


==Nature==
Ienzo reveals to [[Lea]] that when a Heartless and Nobody are destroyed and their hearts find their vessels, they are returned to the place they became a Heartless and Nobody. However, if that world is destroyed or otherwise unavailable, they would appear in Traverse Town.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]''''', '''Ienzo''': "When someone who's lost their heart is recompleted, they should return to the place where it happened. And if that world is unavailable for whatever reason, a refuge is made for them in the realm between—a world called "Traverse Town". They would be sent there."</ref>


Pureblood Heartless are natural Heartless, born when people's hearts are normally consumed by darkness. They are ink-black in color, with yellow beady eyes. They are more common in places that are close to or saturated in darkness. Upon their destruction, they simply disappear in puffs of darkness, without a heart leaving it's body.

However, due to the walls between the worlds, they could initially only enter the Realm of Light when summoned.


Emblem Heartless, on the other hand, were originally created from machines that reproduce the process of a heart being consumed by darkness. Afterward, stolen hearts can become Emblems. They have more varied shapes, colors, and are branded with Xehanort's symbol to differentiate them from the Pureblood ones. They are more common on the worlds within the Realm of Light, and usually mimic the shape of creatures or objects within that world.
About a decade before the events of ''Kingdom Hearts'', [[Ansem the Wise]], king of [[Radiant Garden]], took it upon himself to study the darkness within human hearts, so he and his apprentices, [[Xehanort]], [[Braig]], [[Dilan]], [[Even]], [[Aeleus]], and [[Ienzo]], conducted experiments on the heart beneath his castle.{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Ansem Report 1|Ansem Report 1}} While these tests began with simple psychological tests on willing subjects like Xehanort{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Secret Ansem Report 1|Secret Ansem Report 1}}, they quickly snowballed and eventually caused their subjects' hearts to collapse, producing a Heartless.{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Ansem Report 2|Ansem Report 2}} Unable at first to determine what they were, Xehanort named them "Heartless" due to their apparent lack of emotion.{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Ansem Report 3|Ansem Report 3}} After finding that the Heartless were naturally drawn to the worlds' [[Keyhole]]s{{storylink|Ansem Reports#Ansem Report 5|Ansem Report 5}}, he invented a machine within the [[Heartless Manufactory]] that recreated the conditions which naturally spawned Heartless in order to create artificial Heartless.

Heartless, Emblem or Pureblood, possess several key characteristics that define them as Heartless. All Heartless are created when the darkness that resides in a person's heart consumes him or her, thus giving the darkness shape and form (this process occasionally forms [[Nobody|Nobodies]], which are born from the body and soul left behind when the heart is lost). Being born from darkness, they are mindless and act on instinct, their only goal to find hearts, and consume them to create more Heartless. But what they desire above all are the hearts of worlds, and thus they enter worlds in search of the way into the hearts of the worlds. When they consume these colossal hearts, the remains of the world form new worlds, such as [[Traverse Town]] and the [[End of the World]].

At the same time, Heartless seek out the users of the Keyblade, since the Keyblades are able to vanquish Heartless very effectively. In order to stop the users of the Keyblades, the Heartless use the Keyblade itself as a homing beacon, but ultimately desire to take the heart that commands it. Because of this, Keyblade wielders are under constant attack.
To further their research into Heartless, as well as the [[Keyblade]] and the [[Princesses of Heart]], the apprentices cast off their bodies and surrendered their hearts to darkness, giving birth to their Heartless and Nobodies. Against expectations, [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]] retained his human form{{storylink|Ansem Report 12}}, as did the apprentices' [[Organization XIII|Nobodies]]. Eventually, the witch [[Maleficent]] learned of the Heartless and began using them in her quest for power, and gave the power to lead the Heartless to those who joined her in her quest.  


Heartless, being formed from darkness, have varying strengths, depending on the amount of darkness in a person's heart. The darker the heart forming a Heartless, Emblem or Pureblood, the more powerful and more monstrous the resulting being will be. An exception to this is Xehanort's Heartless, who retained his human appearance for unknown reasons. This is a direct contrast to Nobodies, which determine rank according to the strength of the heart, and whose appearance becomes more human as they increase in power.
Nine years before the events of ''Kingdom Hearts'', she sent a swarm of Heartless to conquer the Radiant Garden, causing it to be lost to darkness so completely that only the castle that became known as Hollow Bastion remained, even in the survivor's memories.<ref>'''''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''''', '''Leon''': "[Maleficent's] the reason this town is full of Heartless. Don't take her lightly." / '''Aerith''': "She's been using the Heartless for years." / '''Leon''': "We lost our world, thanks to her." / '''Cid''': "One day, a swarm of Heartless took over our world!" / '''Leon''': "That was nine years ago."</ref><!--KH2 Radiant Garden reveal
During this time, whether from the machinations of Ansem's apprentices or Maleficent herself, the Heartless became able to invade the Realm of Light at their own choosing, and whole worlds began disappearing to the darkness.
-->


The Heartless, being mindless, usually have no master to direct their actions and instead act on the instinct to gather more hearts. However, there are some higher beings who can command them. Heartless will obey those with an affinity for darkness and a strong will. If many people attempt to control them, the Heartless will side with whomever is most powerful. Those with hearts, such as Maleficent, endanger themselves however, as the Heartless are attracted to their hearts and if they show weakness, the Heartless will not think twice of consuming their hearts.
===''Kingdom Hearts III''===
[[File:The Xehanorts Gather 01 KHIII.png|thumb|left|200px|The guardians of light prepare to face an army of Heartless, backed by Unversed and Nobodies.]]
During their closing research into the [[New Seven Hearts]] and [[Replica]]s, the [[real Organization XIII]] regularly employs Heartless, alongside [[Nobodies]] and [[Unversed]], to both further their experiments and rebuff [[Sora]]'s attempts to stop them.


On the other hand, higher ranking Heartless, like Xehanort's Heartless, can fully command other Heartless without endangering themselves. Also, [[Organization XIII]] is able to command them as well with their strong wills, but are not endangered of being consumed by them for their lack of a heart.
When the [[Seven Guardians of Light]] arrive at the [[Keyblade Graveyard]], the Organization sends the remaining reserves of their armies to quash the heroes. Sora and his friends are able to repel the first assault, but after [[Terra-Xehanort]] confronts them and leaves them in disarray, the swarm attacks again and is able to extinguish the guardians. However, before the [[Lich]] can consume their deaths, Sora exploits the [[power of waking]] to bring them back, and in the process generates a singularity that returns them to before the battle. This time, the [[Lingering Will]] drives off Terra-Xehanort, allowing the spirits of the fallen [[Keyblade wielders]] to rise up and help Sora finish off the massive swarm. In one last attempt, [[Dark Riku]] summons a final swarm of Heartless, Nobodies, and Unversed to overwhelm the guardians, but [[Yen Sid]] arrives and uses his powers to clear a path to the waiting organization.
{{-}}


Heartless make use of the "corridors of darkness", inter-dimensional pathways that connect the many worlds. These pathways are located in the [[Realm of Darkness]], and thus are very dangerous to use if one is not accustomed to the darkness.
==Design==
[[File:Symbol Character - Riku.png|thumb|100px|A Heartless emblem variation.]]
In general, Heartless are beastly creatures with beady yellow eyes.


==The Heartless Invasion==
As naturally occurring Heartless, Pureblood Heartless look more primitive and tend to use more chaotic fighting styles. When they are not possessing objects or using them as armor, Pureblood Heartless are predominantly dark-toned with eerily-colored veins, antennae, and tendrils on their bodies. In addition, they generally do not cast shadows onto the world. Some Pureblood Heartless have chains hanging off their bodies. Particularly strong Pureblood Heartless look somewhat humanoid and possess a heart-shaped hole in the center of their torso.
While the Heartless were not researched with the intent of creating a fighting force, their very nature as manifestations of the destructive force of darkness made them naturally suited for conquering and destroying the various worlds. Their natural ability to travel to various worlds through the use of Corridors of Darkness makes it virtually impossible to fully defend a world from Heartless, and the method in which they are created and exist make it practically impossible to cut them off at the source. Even fighting them once they appear is made difficult due to their immunity to standard weaponry.  


While sealing a world's Keyhole will save the world itself<!--source-->, it is still possible for the Heartless to appear on the world and hunt the people themselves. For example, even though the great [[Door to Darkness]] at The Radiant Garden was sealed by Sora in the ''Kingdom Hearts'', the Heartless were able to remain on that world even after the destruction of the End of the World and the restoration of the worlds, and propagated to form a gigantic siege engine of over a thousand Heartless.
Emblem Heartless have more varied shapes and colors than their Pureblood cousins. They are branded with an emblem, which resembles a heart with a ''fleur-de-lis'' at the bottom and a spiky "X" crossing through the center. The physical appearance of Emblem Heartless is influenced by the world they appear in. Unlike Purebloods, these Heartless generally do have shadows.
{{-}}


The Heartless's natural danger is only increased due to the many villains who seek to harness the creatures' power for their own goals. Many of these villains, such as [[Pete]] and [[Organization XIII]], specifically seek to create abnormally strong Heartless by forcing beings with strong hearts to succumb to darkness.
==Nature==
{{Q|Pitiful Heartless. Mindlessly collecting hearts.|Saïx}}
[[File:Up Until Now and From Here On Out 01 KHII.png|200px|thumb|left|A Shadow, a Pureblood Heartless.]]
Pureblood Heartless are natural Heartless, born from the darkness in people's hearts. They are native to the [[Realm of Darkness]], and they are more common in other places that are close to or saturated in darkness, such as [[End of the World]] and [[The World That Never Was]]. Upon their destruction, they simply disappear in puffs of darkness, without a heart leaving its body.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''''', '''Marluxia:''' "The ones you just defeated are known as Purebloods. Purebloods don't release any hearts when you defeat them. In other words, don't bother with them."</ref> While Purebloods have less variety, they are far more numerous in quantity and often attack in swarms.


The primary weapon for destroying the Heartless is the [[Keyblade]], as it is both specially suited for manipulating the bonds between heart, body, and soul which create Heartless, and it is the only object able to thwart the Heartless in their goal of devouring a world's heart. However, in the absence of the Keyblade there are several other options. Magic is effective against the Heartless, as are magical weapons. In either situation, invading Heartless can be made disorganized by defeating the major Heartless which leads them<!--source to Leon-->, or the dark heart which attracted them to that world. While this does not by any means purge the world of its Heartless, it gives no small respite from their threat.
Emblem Heartless, on the other hand, are artificially created. They were first created from a machine designed to reproduce the process of a heart being consumed by darkness.<ref>'''''[[Secret Ansem Report 5]]''''': "The six traitors were operating a laboratory that churned out those cursed shadows. Not only did they generate "pureblood" Heartless from living hearts, but they then used those Heartless to synthesize artificial versions of the creatures as well. These synthetic Heartless bore insignias and were called "Emblems." Pureblood or Emblem, these Heartless act only to fulfill their instinctive needs. They single-mindedly detect hearts and swarm around them."</ref> They are more common in the worlds within the Realm of Light, and they can adapt their appearance to fit the world they are in, often mimicking the shape of creatures or objects within that world. Powerful Emblem Heartless can also be created directly from the influence of darkness on a creature or individual.<!--Storm Rider, Skoll, Grim Guardianess-->


==End of the World and Kingdom Hearts==
Heartless – Emblem or Pureblood – are dark creatures that act on instinct alone. They will attack others to consume more hearts, and will target wielders of the Keyblade.<ref>'''''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''''', '''Leon:''' "The Heartless have great fear of the Keyblade. That's why they'll keep coming after you no matter what."</ref> However, a powerful user of darkness can summon or control Heartless.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Ultimania]]''''' "As Yen Sid says in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', the Heartless cannot be separated from the darkness in people's hearts, and have been around for a long time. Beings of darkness can draw out the darkness in the heart, so Master Xehanort could summon the Neoshadows with his own hands. In the same way, when Xehanort and Ansem the Wise's students begin to perform the first experiments on the darkness of the heart, artificial Heartless were created in large numbers."</ref> The Heartless will obey a powerful enough force, but they are only loyal as long as the leader remains strong-willed. <ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''''', '''Saïx:''' "The Heartless ally with whoever's the strongest."</ref><ref>'''''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''''', '''Maleficent:''' "Don't steep yourself in darkness too long. The Heartless consume the careless."</ref> Additionally, some Heartless are able to command fellow Heartless.
The Heartless reside wherever darkness is abundant, especially the [[Realm of Darkness]]. However, they also reside in places such as the [[End of the World]], a collection of the remnants of worlds that is located near the darkness. Another area that the Heartless live in is [[The World That Never Was]], the world of the Nobodies that rests dangerously close to the darkness upon which the Heartless thrive.


Heartless, as they seek and consume hearts, also desire to return to the greatest heart, the heart of all worlds, [[Kingdom Hearts (world)|Kingdom Hearts]], that resides deep within the Realm of Darkness. And because of this, Heartless seek immense darkness, enough to completely consume the Realm of Light. The entryway into this place of great power is the [[Door to Darkness]], the door that separates the realm of light and the realm of darkness. However, with the efforts of [[Sora]] and [[Mickey Mouse|the King]], the door is closed, which causes the worlds lost to the darkness to be restored, and preventing a massive army of Heartless from pouring into the realm of light.
[[File:Sora, Donald, and Goofy 01 KH.png|thumb|200px|A Soldier, an Emblem Heartless.]]
Heartless possess the ability to travel between worlds using [[Corridors of Darkness]]. They naturally seek out the heart of the world to corrupt it with their darkness. A Keyblade can lock the heart of a world away from the Heartless; while this prevents the Heartless from destroying the world's heart, it does not keep Heartless out of the world itself.


The forces of the Heartless were extremely weakened after the door to Kingdom Hearts was sealed off, though there were still many left. At the end of ''Kingdom Hearts II'', it is unknown what exactly happened to the Heartless and if they still pose a threat. It should be noted though that Yen Sid has mentioned that the only true way to destroy all Heartless is to have all people have light filled in their hearts and no darkness, leaving nothing to create a Heartless or something for them to thrive for.
If a Heartless is slain by a Keyblade, the heart will be freed and reunite with the body and soul it left behind (provided there is no corresponding Nobody). Magic and certain weapons can also destroy Heartless, but only temporarily.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''''', '''Xion:''' "But if I don't defeat Heartless with the Keyblade... the hearts they release just find their way into other Heartless instead. I swat them in one place and they just pop up in another."</ref> No method of eliminating Heartless is capable of stopping them forever, for as long as darkness lingers in the hearts of individuals, Heartless will continue to form.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''''', '''Yen Sid:''' Your past endeavors did prevent an immense effusion of Heartless from the great darkness; make no mistake about that. However, the Heartless are darkness made real---and darkness lingers yet in every heart. The Heartless are fewer. But while darkness exists in a single heart, it will be difficult to eliminate them."</ref>


== Introduced in game ==
The strength of a Heartless is proportional to the depth of the darkness from which it was born: the darker the heart forming a Heartless, the more powerful and more monstrous the resulting being will be.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''''', '''Pete:''' "I'll give that pirate somethin' he can reeeally be greedy about. Then I'll summon a great big whopper of a Heartless!"</ref> For those with no darkness within their hearts, such as the [[Princesses of Heart]], they cannot create Heartless. The process of creating Heartless occasionally also forms [[Nobodies]], which are born from the [[body]] and [[soul]] left behind when the heart is lost.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''''', '''Yen Sid:''' "At times, if someone with a strong heart and will---be they evil or good---becomes a Heartless, the empty shell they leave behind begins to act with a will of its own."</ref>

File:Ansem, Seeker of Darkness 02 KHIII.png|'''{{ns|Game|Ansem, Seeker of Darkness}}'''<ref>Ansem, Seeker of Darkness appears to have characteristics of both Emblem and Pureblood Heartless, in both his human and world forms. In both forms, he bears the Heartless emblem on his chest, though in human form it could possibly be an article of clothing. Notably, though, the otherwise identical outfit worn by [[Master Xehanort]] does not possess the emblem. Furthermore, the [[Dark Figure]] attached to him in both forms possesses the "hollow heart" shared by many other Pureblood Heartless. Though it is uncertain what Ansem's situation is, it is possible that this makes him both an Emblem and Pureblood Heartless.</ref>

==Trivia==
==Notes and references==
*Ansem, Seeker of Darkness appears to have characteristics of both Emblem and Pureblood Heartless, in both his human and world forms. In both forms, he carries the Heartless emblem on his chest, though in human form it could possibly be an article of clothing. Notably, though, the similar outfit worn by [[Master Xehanort]] does not possess the emblem. Furthermore, the shadowy symbiote attached to him in both forms possesses the "hollow heart" shared by many other Pureblood Heartless. Though it is uncertain what the situation of this Heartless is, it is possible that this makes him both an Emblem and Pureblood Heartless.

*[[Xehanort's Guardian]] is the only type of Heartless that has appeared in every released game. If ''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix'' is treated as a version of its original game, then the Neoshadow has appeared in every game as well.

Issues: Story and origin (focus on important uses of Heartless and events important to Heartless as a whole; not every single Heartless appearance needs to be given a detailed synopsis)

The Heartless Emblem

The Heartless (ハートレス Hātoresu?) are beings of darkness that manifest in two forms, "Pureblood" and "Emblem". While most Heartless are, in fact, manifested hearts, they behave entirely devoid of emotion, and thus were named "Heartless".[1]

The Heartless are the primary enemy type in the Kingdom Hearts series, with various subspecies appearing as enemies in nearly every game.

Story[edit]

Before Kingdom Hearts χ[edit]

Darkness originally had physical forms, but cast them off in order to attack hearts directly. These original Darknesses infected people's hearts and preyed on their negative emotions, giving rise to the first Pureblood Heartless.

Kingdom Hearts χ[edit]

With the incoming Keyblade War, a Nightmare Chirithy manipulated Keyblade wielders in an attempt to prevent them from fighting over Lux. However, the Dream Eater's actions caused opposite reaction, leading to them giving into darkness and being turned into Darklings. They continued their pursuit of Lux eventually coming for Skuld and Player but fled after a fight. Later on, the trio are absorbed by Nightmare Chirithy to do battle again, but ends in defeat. The Darklings' pursuit continued after crossing the world line and following the Dandelions into the data world. Inside the Clock Tower as glitches appear Player, Ephemer and Ventus are soon are surrounded by a Darkling who utters "not you...", which confuses the trio. Then a lone Darkling was followed by Ephemer and Player while traversing through the mysterious tunnel, still muttering the same phrase it did before. They do battle, and the Darkling runs further into the tunnel, with the pair following.

Ephemer continued to follow it through Game Central Station and into Hero's Duty, and once again reunites with Player despite defeating the Darkling for the third time; it still says "not you", leaving Ephemer perplexed about what it could mean. Before confronting it further, the Darkling gets eaten by a Cy-Bug, fusing them together then flies off as the pair chase after it and finally catching up to it, they manage to destroy it. Later, in Sugar Rush, after King Candy and the Cy-bugs are defeated, Player and Chirithy sensed that the Darkling is still around and sees that it has gotten much stronger since their last encounter. Finally, Chirithy asks the Darkling why it keeps following them if they are not the ones it wants but the creature doesn't answer and is destroyed once again. Remembering the Cy-Bugs behavior in Hero's Duty Chirithy wonders if the Darkling was drawn to the light of the Keyblade and was really after a Keyblade wielder.

During the confrontation with Darkness and the Union leaders, Darklings appear, around a comatose Ventus, seeing him as their target. He wakes up and uses the light within his heart to destroy them. Kingdom Hearts Union χ [Cross]

Keyblade wielders fight both Pureblood and Emblem Heartless as they journey across the worlds to collect Lux. However, these are merely projections from the Book of Prophecies, which contains records of future events, as true Emblem Heartless did not yet exist. Kingdom Hearts Dark Road

Between Kingdom Hearts Dark Road and Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep[edit]

In an attempt to draw out the darkness in the heart of his pupil, Ventus, Master Xehanort summoned several Neoshadows to fight him, but Ventus was overwhelmed and nearly destroyed by the Heartless instead.

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep[edit]

Heartless living in the Realm of Darkness.

As Aqua wanders the Realm of Darkness following her battle with Terra-Xehanort, she encounters a group of Darksides. Although she initially summons Master's Defender, she decides to let the Darksides come at her without resisting. However, Terra's and Ventus's Keyblades come to her rescue, a last symbol of hope from her old friends. Her spirit returning, and in hopes of returning to her home, Aqua presses on through the Realm of Darkness, along the way encountering many Pureblood Heartless, including Shadows, Neoshadows and Darkballs. During this time, she is stalked and attacked by the massive Dark Hide, engaging it in combat and emerging victorious after a strenuous battle.

Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-[edit]

Darksides creating a giant red orb
Darksides create a giant red "sun" that disappears when they are destroyed.

Aqua fights off numerous Purebloods in the Realm of Darkness, which included Darksides, Neoshadows, Shadows, and a huge swarm of Shadows called Demon Tower. Extremely rare elemental Heartless, such as Water Core, Flame Core, Earth Core, and Fluttering attack Aqua as she journeys through the realm. While in the remains of Enchanted Dominion, Aqua railslides through a forest of thorns, evading the punches and energy blasts of numerous Darksides. A swarm of Shadows called the Demon Tide attempts to attack Riku when he tries reaching the Door to Darkness, but Aqua holds it off and ultimately destroys it as she renews her convictions to defeat the darkness.

Between Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep and Kingdom Hearts[edit]

The research Ansem and his apprentices produced.

Building on Ansem the Wise's research into the nature of the heart, two of his apprentices, Xehanort and Master Xehanort's co-conspirator, Braig, experimented on people's hearts without his knowledge, convincing Ansem's other apprentices, Dilan, Even, Aeleus, and Ienzo, to assist them.

During the experiments, Xehanort discovered the Heartless and named them. Ansem's Report 3 One of them leads him to the heart of Radiant Garden. After further study, he built the Heartless Manufactory inside Ansem's castle and created the first artificial Emblem Heartless. Ansem's Report 8

After discovering his apprentices' experiments and realizing his error in trying to interfere with the nature of the heart, Ansem the Wise ordered his apprentices to cease their research. However, they overthrew Ansem, banishing him to the Realm of Darkness while Xehanort took his name. Their continued experiments eventually led the group to lose their hearts, turning them into Heartless and Nobodies, and Xehanort's Heartless, Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, began planning to find and take the power of Kingdom Hearts.

In the meantime, the Heartless consumed most of the world, leaving only Hollow Bastion, and they began spreading to other worlds. Ansem began manipulating Maleficent and her allies to use the Heartless in their bid to conquer all worlds and take Kingdom Hearts. In this conquest, Enchanted Dominion, Castle of Dreams, Dwarf Woodlands, The Land of Dragons, Pride Lands, Beast's Castle, La Cité des Cloches, Prankster's Paradise, The Grid, Country of the Musketeers and Symphony of Sorcery were destroyed by the Heartless, along with the homes of Bambi, Dumbo, Pongo and Perdita, and the 99 Puppies.

Kingdom Hearts[edit]

A Heartless steals a man's heart.

Maleficent sends the Heartless to invade many worlds, to consume their hearts and search for the seven Princesses of Heart. Many of her allies use the Heartless to advance their own plans, in many cases to conquer their own worlds.

Sora encounters Heartless within his Dive to the Heart, including a Darkside. A few days later, when Riku opens the door to the heart of the world, the Heartless invade en masse, and they succeed in devouring the islands, despite Sora obtaining the Keyblade and attempting to stop them.

After he escapes to Traverse Town, Sora meets Leon and Yuffie, who explain to him the nature of the Heartless and tell him his Keyblade both draws them to him and is the best weapon against them. This leads Sora to fight the Heartless alongside Donald Duck and Goofy, in an effort to save the worlds.

Sora eventually learns that the Heartless are being used by Maleficent to capture the seven Princesses of Heart and open the door to Kingdom Hearts, so that she and her allies can rule over all worlds. However, Ansem, possessing Riku's body, uses the Keyblade of heart to drown Maleficent in her own darkness and transform her into her dragon form. After she is destroyed by Sora, Ansem reveals that, like the other villains, she was being used by the Heartless.

Sora seals the last Keyhole.

Ansem challenges Sora in order to claim Kairi's heart and complete the Final Keyhole, but Sora defeats him. Sora then uses Ansem's Keyblade on himself, in order to free Kairi's heart and complete the Keyhole so it can be sealed. Although he succeeds, he loses his own heart and becomes a Shadow Heartless in the process. Kairi's light restores Sora to his human form, and he soon travels to the End of the World to stop Ansem from reaching Kingdom Hearts.

Ansem uses a great many Heartless in an effort to defeat Sora, but he is finally beaten in front of the Door to Darkness. Ansem reaches out to Kingdom Hearts to try and control the darkness he expects within, but he is destroyed by the light of Kingdom Hearts.

In order to stop an immeasurable wave of Heartless from emerging through the Door to Darkness, Sora closes and locks the door with the help of Riku and Mickey, who are stuck in the Realm of Darkness.

Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories[edit]

Xehanort's Heartless, Ansem, is one of the only ones to have a mind.

The Heartless appear inside Castle Oblivion, variously formed either from Sora's memories or Riku's darkness as they seek to indoctrinate the two boys.

In the memory-copy of Agrabah, the Heartless caused enough mayhem for Jafar to take control of the city, and attempt to force Aladdin to waste his wishes stopping them.

In the memory-copy of Halloween Town, the Heartless appeared as a result of Dr. Finkelstein creating a potion to retrieve true memories.

Axel, due to his friendship with Sora's Nobody, Roxas, is fascinated by Sora's Heartless, as Sora was able to hold onto his mind and feelings when a Heartless should be mindless and instinctual, something that only one other Heartless, Ansem, was able to accomplish.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days[edit]

Marluxia teaches Roxas about the Heartless.

After Maleficent and Ansem's defeat, the Heartless run wild without a guiding will behind them, although villains like Pete are able to summon and control small groups of them. As a Keyblade-wielding member of Organization XIII, Roxas is often sent on missions to defeat them and collect hearts. During one of his early missions, Marluxia introduces Roxas to fighting Heartless, explaining to him the difference between Pureblood Heartless, which contain no hearts, and Emblem Heartless, which release hearts upon defeat. He tells Roxas that the hearts he collects will gather to form Kingdom Hearts, the ultimate goal of the Organization. Marluxia and Zexion emphasize the importance of Roxas's role in collecting hearts for the Organization's purposes. Xemnas creates Xion to duplicate Roxas's abilities, as a failsafe should Roxas have proved inadequate for the purpose of collecting hearts.

After Xion's death, Roxas attempts to reach the Organization's Kingdom Hearts in the hopes of bringing her back. However, he is stopped by numerous Neoshadows, which he slays with the help of Riku.

Kingdom Hearts II[edit]

Sora charges into battle against the Heartless.

After Sora awakens in Twilight Town, he travels to the Mysterious Tower, where he meets Pete, Maleficent's second in command, who is working to make an army of Heartless for Maleficent's use. After defeating his squad of Heartless, Sora realizes that the worlds are still in danger. He meets with the Tower's master, Yen Sid, who explains Sora's new mission, telling him that although Sora and company prevented a catastrophic invasion of the Realm of Light by Heartless, there are still many Heartless throughout the worlds. Maleficent and Pete continue to use the Heartless in their attempts to conquer worlds, and as Axel reveals during the Battle of the 1000 Heartless, Organization XIII is using Sora to release the hearts of every Heartless he destroys to create their own Kingdom Hearts.

In Halloween Town, Dr. Finkelstein creates an "artificial" Heartless called The Experiment. When it comes to life, it chases presents, hoping that the joy of the presents would be enough to give it a heart.[2] The Experiment is eventually defeated by Sora, Donald, and Goofy when they arrive in Halloween Town the second time.

With this knowledge, Sora heads for the Organization's base world, The World That Never Was, to stop their plans for Kingdom Hearts. Inside the Castle That Never Was, Saïx shows off the Organization's Kingdom Hearts to Sora's group, and he summons a great many Shadows to attack.

Kingdom Hearts is damaged when Ansem the Wise fails to encode it as data, causing hearts to rain down over the Dark City, spawning a great swarm of Shadows that attack the castle. Maleficent and Pete take on the swarm, sending Sora and company to defeat Xemnas, atop the castle.

Kingdom Hearts coded[edit]

Digital representations of the Heartless appear within the datascape of Jiminy's Journal, just as they had appeared in the real worlds. The bugs infecting the Journal also appear as various species of Heartless. The source of the bugs, the digital representation of Sora's Heartless, absorbs the defeated Heartless in order to increase in power, but it is defeated by Data-Sora and King Mickey, and the journal is repaired.

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance[edit]

Before beginning Sora and Riku's Mark of Mastery exam, Yen Sid explains that the Dream Eaters are manifestations of darkness that serve as the Sleeping Worlds' counterpart to the Heartless.

Ienzo reveals to Lea that when a Heartless and Nobody are destroyed and their hearts find their vessels, they are returned to the place they became a Heartless and Nobody. However, if that world is destroyed or otherwise unavailable, they would appear in Traverse Town.[3]


Kingdom Hearts III[edit]

The gang prepare to fight a million Heartless, Nobodies and Unversed
The guardians of light prepare to face an army of Heartless, backed by Unversed and Nobodies.

During their closing research into the New Seven Hearts and Replicas, the real Organization XIII regularly employs Heartless, alongside Nobodies and Unversed, to both further their experiments and rebuff Sora's attempts to stop them.

When the Seven Guardians of Light arrive at the Keyblade Graveyard, the Organization sends the remaining reserves of their armies to quash the heroes. Sora and his friends are able to repel the first assault, but after Terra-Xehanort confronts them and leaves them in disarray, the swarm attacks again and is able to extinguish the guardians. However, before the Lich can consume their deaths, Sora exploits the power of waking to bring them back, and in the process generates a singularity that returns them to before the battle. This time, the Lingering Will drives off Terra-Xehanort, allowing the spirits of the fallen Keyblade wielders to rise up and help Sora finish off the massive swarm. In one last attempt, Dark Riku summons a final swarm of Heartless, Nobodies, and Unversed to overwhelm the guardians, but Yen Sid arrives and uses his powers to clear a path to the waiting organization.

Design[edit]

A Heartless emblem variation.

In general, Heartless are beastly creatures with beady yellow eyes.

As naturally occurring Heartless, Pureblood Heartless look more primitive and tend to use more chaotic fighting styles. When they are not possessing objects or using them as armor, Pureblood Heartless are predominantly dark-toned with eerily-colored veins, antennae, and tendrils on their bodies. In addition, they generally do not cast shadows onto the world. Some Pureblood Heartless have chains hanging off their bodies. Particularly strong Pureblood Heartless look somewhat humanoid and possess a heart-shaped hole in the center of their torso.

Emblem Heartless have more varied shapes and colors than their Pureblood cousins. They are branded with an emblem, which resembles a heart with a fleur-de-lis at the bottom and a spiky "X" crossing through the center. The physical appearance of Emblem Heartless is influenced by the world they appear in. Unlike Purebloods, these Heartless generally do have shadows.

Nature[edit]

"Pitiful Heartless. Mindlessly collecting hearts."
—Saïx
A Shadow, a Pureblood Heartless.

Pureblood Heartless are natural Heartless, born from the darkness in people's hearts. They are native to the Realm of Darkness, and they are more common in other places that are close to or saturated in darkness, such as End of the World and The World That Never Was. Upon their destruction, they simply disappear in puffs of darkness, without a heart leaving its body.[4] While Purebloods have less variety, they are far more numerous in quantity and often attack in swarms.

Emblem Heartless, on the other hand, are artificially created. They were first created from a machine designed to reproduce the process of a heart being consumed by darkness.[5] They are more common in the worlds within the Realm of Light, and they can adapt their appearance to fit the world they are in, often mimicking the shape of creatures or objects within that world. Powerful Emblem Heartless can also be created directly from the influence of darkness on a creature or individual.

Heartless – Emblem or Pureblood – are dark creatures that act on instinct alone. They will attack others to consume more hearts, and will target wielders of the Keyblade.[6] However, a powerful user of darkness can summon or control Heartless.[7] The Heartless will obey a powerful enough force, but they are only loyal as long as the leader remains strong-willed. [8][9] Additionally, some Heartless are able to command fellow Heartless.

A Soldier, an Emblem Heartless.

Heartless possess the ability to travel between worlds using Corridors of Darkness. They naturally seek out the heart of the world to corrupt it with their darkness. A Keyblade can lock the heart of a world away from the Heartless; while this prevents the Heartless from destroying the world's heart, it does not keep Heartless out of the world itself.

If a Heartless is slain by a Keyblade, the heart will be freed and reunite with the body and soul it left behind (provided there is no corresponding Nobody). Magic and certain weapons can also destroy Heartless, but only temporarily.[10] No method of eliminating Heartless is capable of stopping them forever, for as long as darkness lingers in the hearts of individuals, Heartless will continue to form.[11]

The strength of a Heartless is proportional to the depth of the darkness from which it was born: the darker the heart forming a Heartless, the more powerful and more monstrous the resulting being will be.[12] For those with no darkness within their hearts, such as the Princesses of Heart, they cannot create Heartless. The process of creating Heartless occasionally also forms Nobodies, which are born from the body and soul left behind when the heart is lost.[13]

List of Heartless[edit]

Note: The Gummi enemies that appear in Kingdom Hearts are merely Gummi Ships piloted by Heartless. Those that appear in Kingdom Hearts II and Kingdom Hearts III are Heartless themselves.

Notes and references[edit]

  1. ^ Ansem's Report 3: "One thing I am sure of is that they are entirely devoid of emotion."
  2. ^ Kingdom Hearts II, Sora: "Santa Claus thinks maybe it left because it was trying to find a heart." / Dr. Finkelstein: "That's quite possible. Unlike my Sally, it wasn't equipped with a heart." / Sora: "But if it wanted a heart, why was it going around stealing all those Christmas presents?" / Sally: Maybe because...presents are a way to give your heart to someone special.
  3. ^ Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, Ienzo: "When someone who's lost their heart is recompleted, they should return to the place where it happened. And if that world is unavailable for whatever reason, a refuge is made for them in the realm between—a world called "Traverse Town". They would be sent there."
  4. ^ Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Marluxia: "The ones you just defeated are known as Purebloods. Purebloods don't release any hearts when you defeat them. In other words, don't bother with them."
  5. ^ Secret Ansem Report 5: "The six traitors were operating a laboratory that churned out those cursed shadows. Not only did they generate "pureblood" Heartless from living hearts, but they then used those Heartless to synthesize artificial versions of the creatures as well. These synthetic Heartless bore insignias and were called "Emblems." Pureblood or Emblem, these Heartless act only to fulfill their instinctive needs. They single-mindedly detect hearts and swarm around them."
  6. ^ Kingdom Hearts, Leon: "The Heartless have great fear of the Keyblade. That's why they'll keep coming after you no matter what."
  7. ^ Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Ultimania "As Yen Sid says in Kingdom Hearts II, the Heartless cannot be separated from the darkness in people's hearts, and have been around for a long time. Beings of darkness can draw out the darkness in the heart, so Master Xehanort could summon the Neoshadows with his own hands. In the same way, when Xehanort and Ansem the Wise's students begin to perform the first experiments on the darkness of the heart, artificial Heartless were created in large numbers."
  8. ^ Kingdom Hearts II, Saïx: "The Heartless ally with whoever's the strongest."
  9. ^ Kingdom Hearts, Maleficent: "Don't steep yourself in darkness too long. The Heartless consume the careless."
  10. ^ Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Xion: "But if I don't defeat Heartless with the Keyblade... the hearts they release just find their way into other Heartless instead. I swat them in one place and they just pop up in another."
  11. ^ Kingdom Hearts II, Yen Sid: Your past endeavors did prevent an immense effusion of Heartless from the great darkness; make no mistake about that. However, the Heartless are darkness made real---and darkness lingers yet in every heart. The Heartless are fewer. But while darkness exists in a single heart, it will be difficult to eliminate them."
  12. ^ Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Pete: "I'll give that pirate somethin' he can reeeally be greedy about. Then I'll summon a great big whopper of a Heartless!"
  13. ^ Kingdom Hearts II, Yen Sid: "At times, if someone with a strong heart and will---be they evil or good---becomes a Heartless, the empty shell they leave behind begins to act with a will of its own."
  14. ^ Ansem, Seeker of Darkness appears to have characteristics of both Emblem and Pureblood Heartless, in both his human and world forms. In both forms, he bears the Heartless emblem on his chest, though in human form it could possibly be an article of clothing. Notably, though, the otherwise identical outfit worn by Master Xehanort does not possess the emblem. Furthermore, the Dark Figure attached to him in both forms possesses the "hollow heart" shared by many other Pureblood Heartless. Though it is uncertain what Ansem's situation is, it is possible that this makes him both an Emblem and Pureblood Heartless.
  15. ^ Kingdom Hearts II, Pete: "Anger and jealousy turned the king of Pride Rock into a Heartless!"
