The Taboo Text is a Lexicon that can be wielded by Zexion in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. It can be upgraded to the Taboo Text+.

Design

The Taboo Text lexicon has a wide, curved edge with an oval-shaped chunk taken out of the center on each cover. A large, white, wing-like symbol spans the entire length of the book. The border is black, and the rest of the lexicon is blue with a turquoise outline.

“Taboo” refers something that is forbidden or avoided due to deviating from social customs. “Text” can refer to writing of any kind or a book or other compilation of writings. “Papers” can refer to official documents of some sort.

Gameplay

Taboo Text's ground combo begins with a downward slash, followed by a leftward/rightward swipe. Zexion then places the lexicon on the ground and slams it closed on enemies. For the combo finisher, Zexion sends a bird-like illusion, similarly colored to the Taboo Text, hurtling toward enemies.

Taboo Text's air combo consists of a downward slash, an upward slash, and finally Zexion sends a bird-like illusion hurtling toward enemies.

When Taboo Text contacts an enemy, a light blue circle bursts out along with white feathers.
