Having lost his first battle against Aqua, Terra-Xehanort's great rage{{?}} causes the Dark Figure to spawn behind him. The dark entity then teams up with Terra-Xehanort to challenge Aqua one final time. Upon Terra-Xehanort's second defeat at Aqua's hand, Master Xehanort attempts to force what remains of Terra out of him by unlocking his heart. However, the Dark Figure reappears and begins to fade, opening a portal to the Realm of Darkness <!-- Wasn't this done by Terra's will-->which swallows it and Terra-Xehanort. Aqua then dives in after them and sacrifices both her armor and Keyblade to save Terra's body.

After Ansem, Seeker of Darkness and [[Xemnas]] were defeated, Terra's body was recompleted. However, his heart, which was still under Master Xehanort's control, remained trapped within the Dark Figure.  His empty body was filled with the heart of Terra-Xehanort from the past, which Young Xehanort had collected.<ref>'''''Kingdom Hearts III Ultimania''''' '''Tetsuya Nomura''' "By all rights, Terra should have been revived as himself at that point in time. However, his heart was still in the clutches of Xehanort, and it was unable to go back, and the shell of his body was the only thing that revived. Then, Xehanort brought the heart of Terranort from the past and put it in that shell of a body he once controlled."</ref>{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind}}

In the sleeping version of The World that Never Was, Ansem appears to Riku, attempting to persuade him once again to open himself to darkness and allow his possession. However, Riku chooses to fight and vanquish his inner darkness, causing Ansem to surround them in darkness and summon the Dark Figure. After a first battle, Ansem enlarges the Dark Figure and merges with it, but Riku defeats this form as well.<!--As Kingdom Hearts 3 reveals Terra's heart is inside the Dark Figure, wouldn't the Dark Figure reaching out to Riku be a sign of Terra trying to get help?-->

Later, in the real world, Ansem summons the Dark Figure to prevent Riku, [[King Mickey]], and [[Lea]] from rescuing Sora from [[Master Xehanort]]. The Dark Figure grabs Mickey and Riku to prevent them from leaving, but is defeated when Donald and Goofy crash into its head after warping in with the Star Shard.

The Dark Figure has an ink-black, muscular, humanoid form with a partially bandaged head that hosts relatively human features, bearing some resemblance to [[Xehanort|Master Xehanort]]. The bandages are gags representing the shackles Xehanort has placed on Terra's heart.<!--cite to KH3--> It has yellow eyes gleaming above a mouth filled with sharp teeth, as well as two long antennae spouting from the top of its head. A hole appears in between more bandages on the torso in the shape of a heart, much similar to the heart-shaped hole that appears in many of the Pureblood Heartless. Lastly, it has very large hands, its torso coming to a tail-like point that fades away into its host's body.

When it merges with Ansem at The World That Never Was, the Dark Figure becomes much larger, and its lower body forms into an orb of darkness which surrounds Ansem, with two indigo wings extending from the sides and curving downward.
