Xigbar was formed when his original persona, Braig, and the other five apprentices dabbled too deep into darkness through their continued experiments. Braig found [[Even]] and [[Ienzo]] lying lifelessly on the ground inside Ansem's computer room, and he was surprised by [[Terra-Xehanort|Xehanort]], who summoned [[Master Xehanort's Keyblade]] and proceeded to stab him in the chest, extracting his heart. In his last moments, Braig asked if the man before him truly was the Master Xehanort he knew, only to be scoffed at, as his attacker preferred to be called "Ansem."{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance}} Although his heart would go on to become a Heartless, Braig's strong will enabled his body to continue existing as the | Xigbar was formed when his original persona, Braig, and the other five apprentices dabbled too deep into darkness through their continued experiments.

The Nobodies of the six apprentices formed Organization XIII, and they banished Ansem the Wise to the [[Realm of Darkness]]. Because of his original self's strong ties to [[Master Xehanort]], Xigbar was aware of the true purpose of Organization XIII. | ||

Not long after arriving in Hollow Bastion and reuniting with [[Aerith]], [[Leon]], and [[Yuffie]], Sora engages a number of [[Dusk]] Nobodies in battle around the city. After being led away from the main town, Sora, [[Goofy]], and [[Donald Duck|Donald]] hear voices mocking them, but they can't find their source. After Sora demands that the sources of the voices show themselves, the remaining Organization members materialize, laughing. Though they are hooded, they are recognizable as the Organization from the description given to Sora and his companions by [[Yen Sid]]. | Not long after arriving in Hollow Bastion and reuniting with [[Aerith]], [[Leon]], and [[Yuffie]], Sora engages a number of [[Dusk]] Nobodies in battle around the city.

Xigbar also openly compares the similarities between a glaring look Sora gives him and one given to him by another]]; Sora dismisses this as random banter meant to confuse him, and Xigbar leaves. He later travels to [[The Land of Dragons]], where he converts a dragon into the Heartless [[Storm Rider]] to harvest [[heart]]s for the Organization. Sora encounters Xigbar at the gates to the [[The Emperor|Emperor]]'s throne room, and believes him to be Riku, who had appeared earlier in a Black Coat, but Xigbar removes his hood and reveals his identity, while summoning several Snipers to distract Sora and his allies as he makes his getaway. | ||

Xigbar is one of the more comical members of the Organization, alongside Axel and Demyx, due to his fondness for wisecracks and sarcasm. He is rarely serious and even makes sarcastic quips during battle. Like Demyx, Xigbar has given several members of Organization XIII nicknames, calling Roxas "kiddo" or "tiger", Xion "Poppet", and Axel "Flamesilocks". | Xigbar is one of the more comical members of the Organization, alongside Axel and Demyx, due to his fondness for wisecracks and sarcasm.

Xigbar generally seems to care very little for his fellow Organization members. For example, he tells Roxas that what had happened to the members stationed at Castle Oblivion did not bother him, despite the fact that he had personally recruited Marluxia. He even states that he is glad the castle is quieter. In the Organization's final meeting, Xigbar somewhat jokingly remarks that there were more free seats.

Despite his high rank, Xigbar is not given high authority like Saïx or Marluxia, but he instead is sent on missions and confrontations with Sora. He does, however, maintain a position of importance in the Organization due to his past with Xehanort, and is privy to information about the Organization's leader that few others know. Xigbar has a habit of divulging relatively important information to his enemies through his taunts, though he is typically vague enough that they do not understand his meaning; for example, his numerous comments to Sora about Ventus and Roxas. He is described by Roxas as being difficult to trick. Xigbar does not seem to be intimidated by Xemnas as some other Organization members are, going so far as to spy on him in the Chamber of Repose. Xigbar considers Roxas to be a traitor, like the rest of the Organization. | Despite his high rank, Xigbar is not given high authority like Saïx or Marluxia, but he instead is sent on missions and confrontations with Sora.
