Yaksha (夜叉鬼, Yashaki, lit. "Yaksha Demon") is a set of Lances that can be wielded by Xaldin in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. It can be upgraded to Yaksha+.

Design

A Yaksha lance's shaft is violet in the center with rose-colored ends, with the two colors being separated by small, khaki-colored rings. The lower blade is silver and shaped like an arrowhead. The upper blade is also sliver. It is long with a diamond-shaped tip and a thin spike on either side. It also has a dark purple diamond towards the base of the blade. The Asura model of lance is identical to this one in nearly every way, save for its coloration.

A Yaksha in the mythology of India is a class of generally benevolent nature spirits who are the "custodians" of treasures that are hidden in the earth.

Gameplay

Yaksha’s normal ground combo starts with a sideways slash using one lance, followed by Xaldin swinging his lances from the same starting point upward to two far points in a "V" formation. The next attack of the combo consists of Xaldin swinging his lances above him in a circular formation, like a fan before thrusting all six lances forwards at once. The combo can be activated after the second attack, and consists of a single attack where Xaldin swings all six lances in a circle above his head, resembling helicopter blades.

The aerial combo consists of Xaldin swinging his lances above him in a circular formation, like a fan, followed by a thrust of all six lances forwards at once in a pointed, star-like shape.
