The Leviathan (リヴァイアサン Rivaiasan?) is a form of a Keyblade which appears in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. It is available to Roxas and Xion by equipping Nimble Gear and it can be upgraded to the Leviathan+.

Design

The name and the shape are a reference of the water elemental Summon in Final Fantasy video game series. The blade is blue and black in color and it resembles the shape of a serpent dragon with its white head serving as the teeth. The guard is white and unlike most of the other keyblades, it starts from the lowest part of the handle, while it is disconnected with the highest part. The keychain token is a smaller version of the blade and is blue colored. Coincidentally enough, by also equipping Nimble Gear, Axel can also gain a weapon which is named after another well known Summon, the Ifrit.

During Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days's development, this Keyblade was to take an aerial attack-oriented form known as the "Wind Maker" (ウィンドメイカー Windo Meikā?) when the Wing Gear (ウィングギア Wingu Gia?) was equipped. Both the Keyblade and Gear were ultimately cut and the Wind Maker's appearance given to Leviathan.

Gameplay

The Leviathan can be a great weapon for combos, as all of its abilities add to combos on the ground as well as in midair.

Etymology

A leviathan is a mythical, gigantic, powerful sea creature.
