Heartless

Line 143:

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>

As Heartless are technically the manifestation of darkness within hearts, they are capable of possessing other objects and beings; such as the [[Possessor]]s, [[Marionette]]s and [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]]. When possessing something immovable such as stone, it results in [[Gargoyle Warrior]]s and [[Gargoyle Knight|Knights]] along with [[Thresholder]]. In contrast, vessels that are designed to move do not show any signs of corruption beyond glowing eyes and a Heartless Emblem manifesting. In Ansem's case, he was able to reshape Riku's body to resemble [[Terra-Xehanort]] and even manifest an outfit like [[Master Xehanort]]'s; all due to retaining his mind allowing him to go further for customizing his vessel.
