Xion: Difference between revisions

Line 18:

'''Xion''' is the fourteenth member of [[Organization XIII]], first appearing in the game ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', in which she could be viewed as both a protagonist and antagonist. She is not a normal [[Nobody]], and is only a nominal member of the Organization. Because of this, she does not have a throne in [[The World That Never Was|Where Nothing Gathers]], nor does she have a title or a breed of Nobody to control. Instead, she's an imperfect [[Replica]] of [[Roxas]] created from [[Sora]]'s leaked memories as a fail-safe in case both Sora and Roxas proved to be useless to Organization XIII's plans. While this enables her to use the [[Keyblade]], Xion's existence also halts Sora's progression of regaining his memories to fully awaken while in his pod, something which [[Naminé]], [[DiZ]], and [[Riku]] recognize.

As Sora's memories are the basis of her being, Xion initially resembles [[Kairi]], who was Sora's strongest memory at the time of her birth~~. Xion also strongly resembles Aqua. This may be because she shows similarities to Kairi. Though xion's~~ physical appearance eventually changes depending on who is viewing her and who they have connections with. Roxas, Axel, and Riku see her as Xion (and later as Sora), while [[Xemnas]] and [[Xigbar]] see her as [[Ventus]], and [[Saïx]] sees her only as a hooded doll. As Naminé stated while talking with Riku, Xion's face was originally blank, until Sora's memories found their way into Xion and she gained an identity.

Xion's name contains the Japanese words for {{nihongo|"tide"|潮|shio}}, fitting the oceanic naming theme of Kairi and Naminé, and {{nihongo|''[[wikipedia:Aster tataricus|Aster tataricus]]''|紫苑|shion}}, which, according to [[wikipedia:Hanakotoba|Japanese floriography]], means "I won't forget you" or "remembrance". It is also revealed within the [[Secret Reports]] that her "original name" was "No.''i''", her ID as an experiment of the [[Replica Program]]. The "''i''" used here is in fact the [[wikipedia:i (number)|imaginary number]]. Xion's name was coined by Tomoco Kanemaki, one of ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'''s scenario writers and the writer of the [[Kingdom Hearts series (novels)|Kingdom Hearts Novels]]. Tetsuya Nomura took a liking to it and notes that it has many meanings.

==Personality==

First arriving at Organization XIII, Xion is a shy, secluded individual. When going on a mission with Roxas, Xion begins to open up to him, and later Axel. She does seem to express emotions due to her nature of existence, and is always happy to be with her friends. However, she is somewhat emotionally fragile, becoming deeply enraged with the right provocation. After finding out the origins of her existence, she also becomes deeply confused and lost. She has a strong sense of justice and generosity, seen in the way she willingly gave up herself to join with Sora. She resembles Kairi~~, Aqua~~ and Naminé in the way that she fights to protect those she has come to care for.

Xion seems to take an interest in seashells. While Roxas was in a coma when Sora was put to sleep, Xion placed a seashell on his bedside table every day he was asleep. In her nightmare on [[Destiny Islands]], Roxas is in the dream and picks up a shell while whispering her name. After Xion was absorbed into Roxas, all that was left of her was a single seashell. This is likely a reference to how Kairi also had a liking for seashells.
