{{Q|I'm a witch with power over Sora's memories and those around him.|Naminé explaining who she is to Roxas}}

Unlike other humanoid Nobodies, Naminé's ~~main~~ talents do not lie in battle, but in the ability to control memories, making her a "witch." The ability comes from the fact that she is formed from Sora's soul and body, rather than Kairi's. Because of this connection, Naminé can move around the "links" of his memories that are located within his heart to her liking, as well as the ones of those who are connected to Sora. She can even sever them completely, turning the victim into little more than an empty shell. She can even create objects affected by the new memories, evidenced by turning a card into a good luck charm for the Riku Replica and altering the appearance of Kairi's [[Lucky Charm]] to resemble that of a [[Paopu Fruit|Paopu fruit]]. It is noted in ''Kingdom Hearts II'' that everybody who Sora, Donald, and Goofy met and worked with in ''Kingdom Hearts'' had mostly forgotten about them until recently; this could mean that the Castle Oblivion incident also somehow caused the other characters to lose their memories of Sora, and they regained all of them when Sora awakened.

Although her main talents do not lie in battle, in a scene in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', when she and Kairi are confronted by Saix, they both go into martial arts stances, hinting that they have some degree of experience in hand-to-hand combat.

She can even cover up Sora's memory of Kairi with her own image, but as she is Kairi's Nobody, it is impossible for Naminé to completely snuff out Kairi from anyone's memories, as shown when he regained a small memory of her even though he couldn't think of her name. Conversely, those with the greatest connections to [[Sora]] cannot ever completely forget him, as evidenced by Kairi, who still slightly remembered Sora, but not his name, his face, or the sound of his voice, while all other denizens of the [[Destiny Islands]] (along with all the people in other worlds) had completely forgotten about Sora's existence.

Line 145:

How Naminé actually manipulates memories is something to be noted. As she is always drawing pictures on her sketchpad, DiZ believes that she draws in order to capture the memories she needs to chain together. Because of this, the walls of her room are covered by pictures of events, places, and people that are in Sora's memory. Several of them are also of Roxas, implying her ability to fiddle with Roxas's memories as well; in fact, it is highly likely that Naminé is the one who erased Roxas' memory of his time in Organization XIII and replaced it with the fake one he had of Twilight Town. She also might be able to cause things in her drawings to affect people in real-life, as shown in the opening FMV of ''Kingdom Hearts II'', when she places Sora inside of a stasis pod by drawing a picture of him inside of one. This is, however, a dramatic license, taken to shorten the plot for quick recap in the brief FMV.
