- "As your flesh bears the sigil, so your name shall be known as that...of a recusant."
- —Xemnas to Sora
The Recusant's Sigil (異端の印 Itan no shirushi, lit. "Mark of heresy") is a symbol designed by Xehanort to represent the rejection of a Nobody from his original persona. It is incorporated into the new names of each of the original members of Organization XIII, and is derived from Xehanort's sleeping memories of the χ-blade.
In order to track his movements, Sora was marked with the Recusant's Sigil, taking the form of a silver "X" on his shirt.
