==Development==
The Lingering Will's voice in ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'' is represented by metallic grinding, similar to Xemnas in ''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix''.
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX]]'' version of ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix]]'', Lingering Will sprouts a cape upon victory; this is to prevent continuity errors with its appearance in ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'', where it has a cape.{{fact}}}}

As Terra's possessed Keyblade Armor, Lingering Will wields his former Keyblade, the Ends of the Earth. When Terra-Xehanort is created, he forsakes the Ends of the Earth in favor of [[No Name]]. Because Terra's will finds residence within his Keyblade Armor, Lingering Will picks up the Ends of the Earth upon its creation and uses it to conquer its possessed body. The Ends of the Earth remains with Lingering Will during its solitude at the Keyblade Graveyard; the animated Keyblade Armor uses the weapon a second time to battle Sora eleven years after its struggle against Terra-Xehanort.

Under Lingering Will's influence, the Ends of the Earth is able to assume different forms. Lingering Will shares Terra's ability to summon a Keyblade Glider, using what was once a form of transportation for the lost hero as an offensive technique. Other forms the Ends of the Earth may take through the Lingering Will's influence include a chain whip, the massive cannon-like form used in Terra's Ultima Cannon Shotlock, a drilling gauntlet, and a harken-like weapon. Save for the Keyblade Glider and Ultima Cannon, these forms are all unique to the Ends of the Earth when it is wielded by Lingering Will. Lingering Will also holds the weapon in a different fashion in ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'' than in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''; the latter's version is identical to that of Terra.
