[[Luxord]], the {{nihongo|''Gambler of Fate''|運命を賭す者|Unmei o Tosumono}}, is Rank X within [[Organization XIII]]. He possesses the power of time manipulation, and uses his ability to force his opponents to play timed games, with unfortunate consequences if they can't learn the rules and lose. He commands the [[Gambler]] Nobodies.

He harassed [[Sora]] and his friends in [[Port Royal]], playing a game with them involving the cursed Aztec treasure there. He later battles Sora alone in the [[World That Never Was]], and is the third-to-last member of the Organization to fall.

[[Roxas]] and Luxord often team up in [[Wonderland]]. This association with this world is more than likely thanks to the [[Queen of Hearts]]'s card army. Luxord joins Roxas on several missions and stays in the Grey Area as well.

Luxord appears on the ''Black Pearl'' after they have recovered Will, with the cursed gold beside him, greeting Jack Sparrow. He reveals that he is at Port Royal to assess the value of the cursed gold to the Organization and calls up [[Grim Reaper]], a [[Heartless]]. After the Heartless is thrown overboard, Luxord invokes the right of[[wikipedia:Parley| parley]] before Jack can get off a shot with his pistol. He agrees to hand over the chest, but takes four medallions from it when he does so, sending them off to his [[Gambler]] Nobodies, who escape with them. This has the effect of returning the curse on Jack and tying his curse to Grim Reaper, who becomes cursed, as well.

Luxord uses his attribute, time, in unorthodox methods when compared to other Organization members. One might not even see his element as time at first glance. He shortens the odds originally by dispatching of Sora's companions before attacking Sora himself. Luxord does not have a HP bar; during the battle, Luxord and Sora each have a "time" bar that depletes over time and when they are damaged. The first to have theirs depleted loses the battle. This means that the player must watch Sora's HP and time gauges to make sure neither are emptied.

===Weapon===

[[Image:Luxord_cards.PNG|thumb|left|250px|The front and back of Luxord's cards.]]

Luxord's weapons are very flexible, both literally and figuratively. The gambler uses cards, called '''[[Fair Game]]''', of varying sizes, some reaching likely more than ten feet in the air when stood on end. The back of each card has five Nobody symbols on it, while the opposite side resembles a clock (referencing Luxord's element of time) that has Nobody symbols as the minute and hour hands, and the Roman numerals for 1-12 for the clock numbers (the numeral for 13 is in the center, just under the clock hands). Luxord uses these cards the way that most members of the Organization use their element. He can turn himself into a giant card and hide among similar cards, turn his enemies into cards, throw flurries of razor-sharp cards at an enemy, create defensive barriers, and at times by will can reality warp. The Reaction Command "Flip" causes the cards to vanish, but some of them have a booby trap (represented by a symbol on the one side of the card) that "Flip" triggers. He can also use them as sleight of hand cover, or to disorient his enemies.  

===Playing as Luxord===

{{Main|Mission Mode}}

[[File:10days.jpg|thumb|right]]

In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', Luxord uses his playing cards for a strict crowd-control game, attacking multiple surrounding enemies. He has somewhat average strength and defense though not suited for the more powerful enemies. Via the Gear System Luxord can be customized along with all other playable characters, using wide-ranged combos that spread enemies apart. During Jackpot, Luxord's Limit Break, he summons a card in front of him. While it is summoned, the card alternates between a cross and a flashing symbol similar to Roxas's pendant. Selecting the cross results in the card merely exploding, and Luxord will visibly flinch, whereas selecting the flashing symbol will create a few powerful energy blasts that follow a trail between Luxord and the target. During Luxord’s Final Limit, Luxord summons two cards in front of him instead of one. The player now has three alternating symbols to choose from: double crosses, the flashing symbol and an additional red symbol or two large red symbols. The crosses cause the cards to explode as before, the flashing symbol and the red symbol create the exact same energy blasts as summoned by one card. When the two large red symbols are selected, Luxord will create more energy blasts than with one card, with the final blast being much bigger and more powerful.
