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.

===Master Xehanort===
[[File:Master Xehanort KHIII.png|300x300px|left]]
[[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 the [[Terra-Xehanort|present Xehanort]] and his [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|other]] [[Xemnas|incarnations]]. Master Xehanort is, in one form or another, behind nearly everything that has happened in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series so far.
[[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 Heartless, [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]], and his time-traveling younger incarnation, [[Young Xehanort]], were unable to wield a Keyblade themselves; however, each incarnation found a way around this setback. Ansem possessed the body of the nascent Keyblade wielder [[Riku]], allowing him to wield the [[Keyblade of heart]], while the reincarnated Master Xehanort possessed Young Xehanort's body when it was under attack by [[Mickey]] and [[Riku]], allowing him to attempt to repel the duo using the Master's own Keyblade. Being the Nobody of this Keyblade Master, [[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>
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>'''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 [[No Name (KHBbS)|No Name 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.

Mickey unlocks the ability to open paths to the Realm of Darkness with Kingdom Key D, due to it originating from there, but when the Heartless in the Realm of Darkness prove to be too strong, Mickey looks to Yen Sid for guidance in empowering the Kingdom Key D. As a result, Mickey fuses Kingdom Key D with Star Seeker, creating Kingdom Key W, which he continues to wield on his journey to rescue Aqua and defeat Xehanort.-->

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 Sora's Keyblade, 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}}

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''': "That Keyblades are Light and Dark is not to say that there is one per side, and there exist as many of them as there are hearts of those who possess the capability. At the current stage, in regards to the requirements for possession, the only requirement that has become obvious is for "those whose hearts are strong", but there are also other requirements that have not yet been made clear, and we plan to reveal them at another opportunity. In nature, Riku's "Way to the Dawn" and the Keyblade that Kairi possesses have become objects of the same nature as the Keyblade that Sora holds. However, there is no full explanation for the "Soul Eater" being generated as an intermediary [for the Way to the Dawn], or [the Keyblade that Kairi possesses] being handed over to Kairi from Riku, and when it's not close to the normal obtainment procedure, I think it's okay to feel that there's something more than meets the eye."</ref>{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts II}}

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."

Terra-Xehanort's Nobody [[Xemnas]] was never shown utilizing a Keyblade, however he may have been capable of doing so and simply chose not to, he did at one point utilize Xehanort's Keyblade Armor.{{fact}}

Aside from his own Keyblade, he is also able to wield the legendary [[χ-blade]].

As a being created from the darkness of [[Ventus]]'s heart, [[Vanitas]] uses a Keyblade of his own called the [[Void Gear]]. Aside from his own Keyblade, he comes into possession of the legendary [[χ-blade]] after fusing with Ventus; due to their failure to meet the requirements for forging the weapon on their own, however, this version of the χ-blade proves to be incomplete and unstable, eventually leading to its destruction by Aqua and Ventus.

[[Sora]] gained the ability to wield the Keyblade when he reached out his heart to Ventus after sensing Ventus's shattered heart. By joining his heart with Ventus's he gained the ability to wield his own Keyblade, as well as Ventus's. 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]] 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, however it has been corrupted by darkness.

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. As Roxas essentially is Sora, Sora is also able to use Synch Blade.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Show Keyblades

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.

Kairi is able to wield a Keyblade because she touched Aqua's Keyblade when she was a child, initiating a Bequeathing. 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. 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

  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.

  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."
