*'''First off''': This is IMPORTANT. More than anything else online, I abhor those who knowingly pass of mistruths as facts. If you're obviously joking, fine, you're a little annoying but manageable. But when you are truly trying to make fools of innocent readers, by, for example, making up characters, attacks, etc., and passing them off as official, you are being deliberately malicious, and I really do hate you.

*'''Religion''': Modified Roman Catholicism, some Episcopalianism. Large influence from the writings of C.S. Lewis - while I am zealously Christian, and very much a literalist, I haven't yet found the passage that says that an "non-Christian" who embraces Love, Truth, etc., actually rejects God. Stuff like that.

:Also: Code Geass. The pillars of Heaven cannot be built upon the foundations of Hell.
:Also also: Grammar Nazis in regards to the English language. All of the rules of English are arbitrary and are rarely based on logical use, and the language and it's rules constantly change. In my opinion, whether or not it is the ''current'' style, an apostrophe should be used to denote the plural of any uncommon words, especially proper nouns. For example, under the current style, the word is "logos". What do I mean by that, and how do you pronounce that? If apostrophes were used to denote plurals for words which have not had their spelling corrected for plurals (like "potatoes"), you would know. The point of using clean grammar is to clearly express your idea, and if a "violation" does not interfere with communication, it is not actually an error. If you want to complain about misuse of the English language, make the damn language sensible first, like Japanese is.


<blockquote>
==My personal beliefs about KH==
"I think there are other cases where a plural can be shown by using an apostrophe-S. Unfortunately, no concrete examples occur to me now. :-)"<br>
'''Note''': ''These may or may not be true, but I need to find citations before removing them from this list.''
"However, for instance, “schemas” and “schema’s” will do for illustration. I think at this point “schemas” is correct, but when “schema” was a less familiar word, the apostrophe probably ought to have been used. The purpose of the apostrophe here is not to indicate the possessive, but rather to clarify the pronunciation, thus making it clear that it’s a plural, and not just a word ending in S. “Schemas” could potentially be pronounced SKEE-mahSS or SKEE-mahZ. The latter is the pronunciation for the plural, and the former would be the pronunciation were “schemas” just a singular word that happens to end in S (which it isn’t, of course, but for a less familar word many readers wouldn’t know that)."<br>
*Pureblood Heartless are manifestations of the darkness within hearts, but not those hearts themselves. This is why Heartless will always exist until (and ''only'' until) only light is within hearts.
"Similarly, words that end in other vowels would cause similar problems: would a word ending in “-us” be an S sound or a voiced Z sound? Familiar words we know, but new coinages and borrowings we don’t."<br>
*Emblem Heartless are hearts which have been separated from the body and soul, and have regained a pseudo-life due to the darkness within them.
"For words that have been around a long time, the spelling has been adjusted to take care of this problem: for instance, “potato” versus “potatoes.” But newer words create a little confusion: depending on context, “logos” could go either way, S or Z, and the spelling “logoes” has not come into use (for the corporate identity sense of the word)."<br>
*Nobodies are the body and soul, and are not truly real because the part of the body that keeps them real is "busy" taking the role of the motive force which the heart would usually perform.
"A case of this not involving plurals is the use of the apostrophe for the past tense. For instance, “I spec’d out the design” is not uncommon. You might say “specked” or “specced,” I suppose, but “spec’d” is the easiest way to prevent the reader from thinking “What does ’spessed” mean?” when you spell it “speced.”"<br>
*The strongest Nobodies retain their human form, and a facsimile of emotion, because they have used the elements themselves to replace their hearts. While they are still not truly real, as the elements are not living things, they are closer to it than any other type of Nobody.
"The concept of the “correct way” as a moving target is well accepted; witness the Chicago Manual on whether to hyphenate, treat as two words, or spell as a single word. They basically say that things move so fast when new compounds are formed, that even dictionaries cannot be trusted."<br>
*Unbirths are the separated souls, bereft of both emotion (heart) and reality (body). The purpose of the soul is give thought and make something more than a puppet - with the soul not able to ably perform that function, the being appears to be nothing more than a mechanical or puppet. Thus, something that was not born.
"The concept of punctuation as a pronunciation guide is also well accepted. Strunk’s Rule No. 1 is basically an acknowledgment of the fact that (in many English dialects) “Charles’s book” is pronounced CHARZ-iz-book. Here the apostrophe is indicating elision of a vowel."<br>
*Spectre and Tiamat (the ships piloted by Marluxia and Xemnas) are Nobodies in the same class as Twilight Thorn. Spectre belongs to Marluxia, Twilight Thorn belongs to Zexion, and Tiamat belongs to all of them, I guess. They really need to make more high-ranking Nobodies, not replicas and Heartless.
