SPOILERS: HIGHLIGHT AT YOU'RE OWN RISK


#1 Xemnas "The Superior"
Leader and founder of the Organization XIII.

Organizations I. Original name: Ansem. His true form was Xehanort, understudy of Ansem. Xehanort acts as the world's heart, its cry of battle. His research throughout his journey helped him achieve his leader name. When Xehanort became Heartless, and took on the name Ansem his Nobody, Xemnas, was formed. Sora was able to kill Ansem the Heartless in Kingdom Hearts. The real Ansem became DiZ. Xehanort continued Ansem’s studies even after he was told not to.

Xenmas sought to take advantage of Sora to take care of the Heartless which opposed them to put the heart 'back’.

JIMINY SAYS
Organization XIII’s number I, who acts as leader of the group.

He used Sora and his Keyblade to collect hearts from the Heartless and see Kingdom Hearts to its completion.

Xemnas is using Sora, collecting the hearts released every time a Heartless falls to his Keyblade.


#2 Xigbar

Organizations II. Original name: Braig. Xigbar, the freeshooter, has a strong will to fight, and has no emotions during battle. Even though he isn't the smartest, he can survive through instinct. His attacks are materialized by light.

JIMINY SAYS
Organization XIII’s Number II.

He told Sora once that he reminded him of someone else. Puzzling words, indeed…

Some part of him did seem to be enjoying Sora’s reaction.

When Sora called out to him thinking he was Riku, Xigbar gave him a curt reply.

His motives and his methods remain unclear. Surely he has a greater goal in mind, but what could it be?







#3 Xaldin

Organizations III. Original name: Dilan. Xaldin, the Whirlwind Lancer, uses lances as his weapon of choice. He arrives at Beast's Castle, and he is working with Beast for some unknown purpose. He uses the power of wind as his attacks, and he controls it with his 6 lances. When you encounter Xaldin in Beast’s Castle, be prepared for THE toughest battle in the game.

JIMINY SAYS
Organization XIII’s Number III. He sought the Beast’s Heartless and Nobody in order to acquire Kingdom Hearts.

He was a master of wind who wielded six lances- but he met his end at the hands of Sora.






#4 Vexen - Deceased

Organizations IV. Original name: Even. Vexen, the Chilly Academic, was a researcher of the heart and in KH:CoM created a replica of Riku using data gathered from fighting him. Later in the game, at Twilight Town he taunted Sora and informed Sora of the other side of his heart. For this, Marluxia ordered Axel to kill Vexen. If Vexen was not killed, it could of ruined Marluxia's plan to use Sora as a puppet so that he could gain control of the Organization. Vexen can control ice and he carries a large blue shield.

JIMINY SAYS
Formerly Organization XIII’s Number IV. He has been eliminated.

Vexen, Lexaeus, and Zexion were among Organization XIII’s founding members, and there was no love lost between them and neophytes like Marluxia. Vexen opposed Marluxia’s plans to take over the Organization, and was consequently destroyed by Axel.




#5 Lexaeus - Deceased

Organizations V. Original name: Elaeus. Lexaeus, the Silent Hero, was known as the brute force of the Organization due to his huge size and strength. He wielded the element of "Earth" and used it against Riku in battle. According to the "D Report", similar to Marluxia, Lexaeus (with others) had the intention to use Riku as a puppet. Riku eventully killed him in battle.

JIMINY SAYS
Formerly Organization XIII’s Number V. He once brandished a giant tomahawk, but now he has been eliminated.

Lexaeus rejected Marluxia’s bid to dominate the Organization, and formulated his own plans- but the plans failed and he met his end.





#6 Zexion - Deceased

Organizations VI. Original name: Ienzo. Zexion, the Cloaked Schemer, is known for not wanting to get into combat. But after the deaths of Vexen and Lexaues, he was forced into action to make a last attempt to gain control of Riku. He used his dark powers to pretend to be Sora, but at this point Riku mastered the darkness and seen through the guise. After this point, he encountered Axel who now had the Riku replica by his side, Axel ordered the Riku replica to kill Zexion. Zexion has the power to identify people by their scent. While he was the youngest lab assistant of Ansem, he was the one that convinced Ansem they should expand on their research.

JIMINY SAYS
Formerly Organization XIII’s Number VI. He has been eliminated.

Zexion disliked dirtying his own hands, and relied on his wits to dispose of any rivals- but it was one of his own schemes that wound up destroying him.




#7 Saïx

Organizations VII. Original name: Unknown. Saïx, the Luna Diviner, appears at the infamous Battle Scene, and uses a colossal sword as his weapon. He is a silent and powerful foe who will show no mercy. He can control the element of the moon. Axel dislikes Saïx, and Saïx is the one that turns the organization against Axel. He himself is unknown, and his purpose is clouded in mystery. Does he know the whereabouts of Riku?

JIMINY SAYS
Organization XIII’s Number VII.

Saïx relentlessly chased the renegade Axel. It was also he who caught Kiari after she eluded Axel, and threw her into the castle dungeon.

If Saïx sees something he can use, he will- and without a second thought.

He was in pursuit of the renegade Axel, but for some reason seemed more concerned about Sora’s well-being.

Saïx has no heart, but knows all too well how to injure one. No doubt his poise belies a more savage nature. He also insinuated he knew something about Riku.






#8 Axel

Organizations VIII. Original name: -.Axel and the leader of the XIII Order are not particularly good friends, the reason for this is unknown. Whatever assignment he is given, it doesn’t matter to him whatever the mission is, he will complete it regardless. He says he has something in common with Sora, what could this possibly be? He uses the power of fire, and uses his Chakrams as mediums to fight. He is best friends with Organizations number XIII.

JIMINY SAYS
Organization XIII’s Number VIII. He commands fire and carries a uniquely shaped weapon.

He has proven to be an odd duck of sorts within the Organization, lashing out against treachery, yet stirring trouble with his own betrayals all the while.

He claims him and Sora have some sort of bond, but Sora can’t imagine what that might be.




#9 Demyx

Organizations IX. Original name: -. Demyx, the Melodious Nocturne, uses a sitar as his weapon. The other members of the Order would say that he is somewhat childish. But in exchange to that, he is a strong fighter. He uses the power of Water to fight, and channels it through the Sitar.

JIMINY SAYS
Organization XIII’s Number IX. He used a type of instrument called a “sitar” to control water…but he wasn’t very good at fighting.

Demyx was under orders to “liberate Sora’s true disposition” while surveying the world of Olympus.






#10 Luxord

Organizations X. Original name: -. Luxord, Gambler of Fate, uses cards as his weapon of choice. He is considered more of a strategist more than a fighter; he also has some traits as a Gambler. He thinks of his strategies as games, and is a very good tactician. He also uses gambling as an implementation of his fighting. During his fight in Kingdom Hearts II, he can turn his enemy into a card or a dice. Also, his fight is very different from the other fights, since his HP has nothing to do with whether or not you win or lose.

JIMINY SAYS
Organization XIII’s Number X, a gambler who can manipulate time.

Having shaken Sora and his companions without wily words, Luxord entertained himself by drawing them into a game-like battle.

In Port Royal, Luxord used Heartless and cursed medallions to conduct experiments on the Organization’s behalf and collect hearts.






#11 Marluxia - Deceased

Organizations XI. Original name: -. The superior entrusted Castle Oblivion to Marluxia, the Graceful Assassin, despite his low rank in the Organization. But he had no intentions of doing what he was told and instead teamed up with Larxene to attempt to take control of the Organization.

He did this by trying to gain control of Sora and use him as a puppet. By using Namine, he ordered her to get rid of Sora's memories of Kairi and replace them with Namine. By doing this, Sora would become more & more obsessed of trying to save Namine, thus Marluxia could then use Sora's fear to make him do whatever he wants him to do. Ultimately with the betrail of Axel, and the strength of Sora, Marluxia's life came to an end.

JIMINY SAYS
Formerly Organization XIII’s Number XI. He has been eliminated.

He plotted an Organization rebellion and tried to seize the power of the keyblade, but Axel’s betrayal led to his destruction.


#12 Larxene - Deceased

Organizations XII. Original name: -. Larxene, the Savage Nymph, is the only female member of the organization. She wielded the element of "Thunder" and fought several times in battle against Sora. She teamed up with Marluxia and later tried to also get Axel to help gain control of the Organization. In addition, she also taunted Sora to forget his memories of Kairi and become more & more obsessed with Namine. In the end, she was killed by Sora in battle.

JIMINY SAYS
Formerly Organization XIII’s Number XII. She has been eliminated.

Larxene conspired with Marluxia to turn on the Organization.

Larxene was unfeeling and loved nothing more than to bring other people down, but she met her demise when that malice came full circle.





SPOILERS: HIGHLIGHT AT YOU'RE OWN RISK


#13 Roxas
Organizations XIII. Original name: Sora. Roxas, the Key of Destiny, is the Keyblade dark weilder and Sora’s Nobody form. Roxas came to be when Sora became a heartless a brief moment, and since Sora was a heartless for such little time, Roxas has no recollection of Sora. Added to Sora's form with him unaware at the time. This form he undertakes is only visible to Sora. He is the youngest and newest member of the organization. Roxas first official onscreen appearance takes place during the secret video in Kingdom Hearts; Another side, another story [deep dive]. He was the first organization member to make a public appearance, but was gone unnamed. He had many common fan names, including; Blond-Haired kid and Mysterious Boy. He is Axel’s best friend, and is the organization member at the beginning of the game which you don’t hear speaking during the prologue.

JIMINY’S JOURNAL

Organization XIII’s Number XIII, a Keyblade wielder and denizen of darkness.
