[[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.

[[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. Although it is not a true Keyblade, the Soul Eater has many of the same abilities as one, and is considered a ''sort'' of Keyblade by several sources. 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]]''' 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.

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.
Keyblade Masters
The Master of Masters
The Master of Masters is responsible for creating the Book of Prophecies using his gift of foresight, as well as for training his six apprentices, Luxu, Ira, Invi, Aced, Ava, and Gula.

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 the present Xehanort and his other incarnations. Master Xehanort is, in one form or another, behind nearly everything that has happened in the Kingdom Hearts series so far.
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.[1]
Master Xehanort's Keyblade is claimed by Young Xehanort to be the oldest surviving Keyblade, and to possess a connection to the Keyblade War.[2] Its primary Keychain gives it a black form resembling the Foreteller's Keyblades, but with a horned lion in place of their respective animals. It contains a single eye of darkness on its head, similar to Riku's Keyblade. 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.

Eraqus
Master Eraqus was 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, 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.

Yen Sid
Although Yen Sid is not shown wielding a Keyblade, he is acknowledged to have been a 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. Master Eraqus himself has stated Yen Sid retired from his position, still remaining to watch over the Realm of Light and the Realm of Darkness.
After the events of Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Mickey returns the Keyblade, believing that he has failed Yen Sid, but Yen Sid hands it back, encouraging him.
Mickey Mouse
As an apprentice to Yen Sid, Mickey wields the Star Seeker, a gift to him from his master. 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".[3]
During the events of Kingdom Hearts coded, King Mickey returned to wielding his Star Seeker.

Aqua
Aqua is a Keyblade Master who lived 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.

Riku
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 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. Although it is not a true Keyblade, the Soul Eater has many of the same abilities as one, and is considered a sort of Keyblade by several sources. 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.[4] 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

Other Keyblade wielders
Other Keyblade wielders appear in Kingdom Hearts χ, Kingdom Hearts Unchained χ, and Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover, sometimes fighting alongside the Player as a member of their Union, sometimes competing against them as members of other Unions, and some of them are Dandelions. These Players generally wield a basic Starlight Keyblade, though some instances wield other Keyblades.
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. In Kingdom Hearts χ[chi], eight of these, alongside three additional members, represent both parties in the daily Team Battle skirmishes.

Terra-Xehanort
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".

Lingering Will
After Master Xehanort possessed Terra's body and became Xehanort, a part of Terra was left within his armor, giving it life. It became known as Lingering Will. Being a remnant of Terra, it is able to wield his Ends of the Earth Keyblade.

Ventus
Ventus is a Keyblade apprentice from before the events of the first Kingdom Hearts. His original Keyblade is named Wayward Wind ("Fresh Breeze" in Japanese). His Keyblades are often shorter than those of Terra and Aqua. During his final battle at the Keyblade Graveyard, Vanitas possesses his body in order to summon and wield the χ-blade. However, Ventus destroys it in the Dive to the Heart, using his own Keyblade. When Aqua tries to figure out where she should carry him to, Ven's body reacts and summons Wayward Wind to open the pathway to the ruined Land of Departure.

Vanitas
As a being created from the darkness of Ventus's heart, Vanitas has the power to carry a Keyblade of his own which is known as Void Gear. Aside from his own Keyblade, he is also able to wield the legendary χ-blade. It was believed to have more power than any other weapon in the universe, but it is destroyed by Aqua (in the Keyblade Graveyard) and Ventus (in the transformed Dive to the Heart station).

Sora
_KHIIHD.png)
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 recieved the title.
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. Template:Section-stub

Roxas
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.

Xion
Xion, the fourteenth member of Organization XIII, can wield a Keyblade due to the fact that she is a Replica of Roxas. 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.

Similar to its real-world counterpart, Data-Sora wields a data version of the Kingdom Key. He utilizes this mighty blade to fend off Heartless and Bug Blox. Data-Sora gains the Keyblade in the data Awakening, but loses it to the real Maleficent in data Agrabah. However, even though he is merely a data construct, the strength of his heart recreates the Keyblade in data Hollow Bastion.

- ^ Nomura Interview "It's possible that [Xemnas] intentionally wasn't using [a Keyblade]."
- ^ 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?"

- ^ 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."
