HISTORY
IN-DEPTH: Roxas's page on KHWiki.

The Nobody of the series' main character, Sora. When a strong-willed person loses their heart to darkness and becomed a Heartless, the empty body left behind grows an awareness of its own and becomes a Nobody. When Sora used a Keyblade of darkness to unlock his heart to help his friend Kairi, he unknowingly created Roxas as a result. Roxas was recruited into Organization XIII due to his ability to wield the Keyblade, and was told he was the key to the Organization's goal of acquiring hearts of their own. Unlike the other members, Roxas had no memory of his original self and took their word for it that he was doing the right thing. However, when Roxas began to have flashback to memories of Sora and began questioning who he was, he eventually defected from Organization XIII in an attempt to find answers.

His independence was short-lived, however, as he was quickly captured by Riku and DiZ, who were trying to help Sora after he'd gone into a coma to recover his memories that had been scrambled during his time in Castle Oblivion. The two placed Roxas in a simulated version of Twilight Town for safekeeping against the Organization, altering his memories and making Roxas believe he was a normal kid. However, Axel, a member of the Organization and Roxas's former friend ended up finding him and began to interfere with the simulation, which set off a series of events that allowed Roxas to remember who he was, reawaken his abilities, and eventually lead Roxas to find and re-merge with Sora. Though he has returned to Sora's heart, he has still shown his presence and influence in subtle ways, such as through odd comments and actions done by Sora, using Sora to briefly project himself, or directly interacting with individuals within Sora's heart.

PERSONALITY
Being born from Sora's heart, Roxas has a few personality traits that are similar to his original self. He deeply cares for those who he considers his friends and can be fiercely protective of them, and he has little patience for those who try to confuse him or manipulate him in any way. With his friends he can be happy, carefree, and cheerful, though this is usually reserved for those he opens up to. However, he differs greatly from Sora in that he is much more quiet, stoic, distracted, and even melancholic at times. He is less easily fooled and less impulsive than Sora, but he is much more arrogant, cocky, and confident, and is much quicker to anger. Roxas is short-tempered, blunt, and aggressive against enemies, and if provoked enough he can fly into a blind rage, foregoing any form of defense in favour of single-mindedly attacking the object of his anger. He also differs from Sora in terms of not wanting to live the hero's lifestyle, instead longing for a life that's simpler and less complicated. He is a strongly independent person and can be stubborn, even selfish at times, and hates being told where his "place" is, but if given enough time to process something he can become at peace with it and accept it of his own volition, such as when he returned to Sora. Overall he is a good-meaning kid who just wants to live his own life, without others telling him how to do it.

QUIRK IN-DEPTH: Roxas isn't normally a singer, but after gaining his essence he finds himself humming or singing more often.

ABILITIES
WEAPON: N/A - Coming to the Index has stripped him of his Keyblade and magic abilities in exchange for his Essence abilities.

STYLE: Normally, dual-wielding all-out offensive with high physical and magic output. While in the Index, he will be more magic-based until he regains abilities similar to his abilities back home.

Merman Transformation: While submerged in water, Roxas can breathe underwater and everything from the waist down becomes that of a dolphin’s, with cool grey skin and small dorsal fin. He has this tail for as long as he is submerged or his tail is in contact with water; if he becomes completely dry, his tail reverts into human legs. He can be out of water for a total of three days before every step causes excruciating pain, and he loses his voice. He will need to spend some time in the water recovering if he gets to this point. As of the completion of The Legend of Princess Kaguya, the magic of his transformation also affects any clothes he is wearing; any clothes he wears will now magically vanish when he transforms, and will magically re-appear when he transforms back to human form.

Roxas's merman form.

Magic Song: Roxas can use his singing as a conduit for magic. By singing various songs, he can create various magical effects, from the traditional siren's lure, to buffs and enchantments, to offensive spells.

Current known magical abilities:
Siren's Lure - Roxas draws the listener closer to his location while he sings, without acknowledgment or care for potential harm.
  • The Legend of Princess Kaguya Upgrade: He can not only draw others to him, but offer subtle suggestions to the listener. This is NOT mind-control; despite the temptation, the listener is free to ignore the suggestion.

  • The Little Mermaid Upgrade: Roxas can now put people to sleep with his song. Strong-willed individuals have a chance of fighting this magic, but simpler creatures and weak-willed individuals will be lulled to sleep for a while.

  • A Midsummer Rose Upgrade: Roxas can now use his song to stir the listener into a minor frenzy. Strong-willed individuals have a chance of fighting this magic, but simpler creatures and weak-willed individuals will be stoked into an angry rage for a brief period of time.

  • Alice in Wonderland Upgrade: Roxas can now use his song to entrance the listener, encouraging them to pause all actions and dance to his song. Strong-willed individuals have a chance of fighting this magic, but simpler creatures and weak-willed individuals will be stoked into dancing.

  • Frankenhyde Upgrade: TBA.

Water Weapon - Using the power of his voice, Roxas can manipulate water and form it into a weapon that can be wielded. The weapon is strong enough to service as an effective combat weapon. Gained after completing A Hollow Christmas Carol.
  • The Legend of Princess Kaguya Upgrade: He can create two weapons, and shape the water into that of his signature two Keyblades, Oathkeeper and Oblivion. He can also use his ability when he isn't near a body of water, but only if there is significant moisture in the air, such as rain or fog.

  • The Little Mermaid Upgrade: Roxas has greater control over the water weapons, and the weapons he creates act more like the weapons they're taking the shape of. He can perform ranged attacks such as Strike Raid and the weapons will retain their shape and hardness, as well as produce a shockwave-type of attack that releases a small wave of water at the same time as his attack.

  • A Midsummer Rose Upgrade: Roxas's control over his water weapons have increased. He can now shoot spheres of water as projectiles at enemies, and can ensure his water weapons maintain their shape long enough to allow another individual to hold them. They can be wielded by another person for a maximum of 2 minutes before the weapon collapses.

  • A Midsummer Rose Upgrade: Roxas's control over his water weapons have increased. He can now shoot spheres of water as projectiles at enemies, and can ensure his water weapons maintain their shape long enough to allow another individual to hold them. They can be wielded by another person for a maximum of 2 minutes before the weapon collapses.

  • Alice in Wonderland Upgrade: While standing in a body of water, Roxas is able to use the currents in addition to his water weapons; as he slashes with his water weapons, a wave of water will be created at the same time, striking opponents and causing them to be washed away or endure damage. In addition to this, Roxas's water weapons can now be held by another person for 5 minutes before collapsing.

  • Frankenhyde Upgrade: TBA.

Water Resistance (cold) - While in merman form, Roxas has more resistance to cold waters. Not long enough for lengthy swims, but he can dip into frigid water for a short while before he is affected by hypothermia. Gained after completing A Hollow Christmas Carol.
  • The Legend of Princess Kaguya Upgrade: He can remain in frigid waters for up to two hours.

  • The Little Mermaid Upgrade: He can remain in frigid waters for up to three hours.

  • A Midsummer Rose Upgrade: He can remain in frigid waters for up to four hours.

Bardic Inspiration - Roxas can sing a melody that will bolster and inspire others around him, grant them courage, or help them be more determined against enemies. Gained after completing The Legend of Princess Kaguya.
  • The Little Mermaid Upgrade: The inspirational melody that Roxas sings has a stronger effect, and can help to stave off minor magical influences that may be causing fear, despair, etc.

  • A Midsummer Rose Upgrade: Roxas can now offer a stronger boost in courage to those who listen to his song, allowing them the courage and determination to overcome a particularly difficult challenge. They still have a chance to fail at whatever challenge they are facing, but they won't falter due to nerves or fear

  • Alice in Wonderland Upgrade: Roxas's ability to inspire others with his melody increases. He can grant a boost of confidence and assurance even to those overcome with fear, allowing them to believe they have a greater chance of success even against dangerous odds.

  • Frankenhyde Upgrade: The inspiration that Roxas is able to conjure is enough to ward off magical effects that cause fear, despair, etc.

Stunning Note - Roxas can shout out a note that can stun enemies for a brief time. Gained after completing The Legend of Princess Kaguya.
  • The Little Mermaid Upgrade: The stun effect produced now lasts for up to two minutes.

  • A Midsummer Rose Upgrade: The stun effect produced now lasts for up to five minutes.

  • Alice in Wonderland Upgrade: The stun effect produced now lasts for up to ten minutes.

  • Frankenhyde Upgrade: The stun effect can now temporarily deafen an enemy for up to one minute.

Seafoam Form - Roxas can transform his body into seafoam for an extremely brief period of time (a max of about 10 seconds). While in seafoam form he is unable to talk or attack until he reforms into his solid form, but he is impervious to damage and able to slip through any gap that water can slip through. He must take a rest in between each use of this ability. Gained after completing The Little Mermaid.
  • A Midsummer Rose Upgrade: The amount of time Roxas is able to transform into seafoam is extended to 20 seconds. He is also able to move while in this form, though movement is rather slow.

  • Alice in Wonderland Upgrade: Roxas is now able to quickly dash forward while in seafoam form, quickly transforming into seafoam and reforming right after; essentially acting as a quick dodge to avoid enemy attacks. He can only do this a maximum of three times before he must take a rest.

  • Frankenhyde Upgrade: The amount of time Roxas is able to stay as seafoam is extended to 30 seconds. In addition, he is able to maintain a grip on his water weapons and turn them into seafoam when dodging, allowing him to strike once he's completely re-solidified.

Speak With Aquatic Animals - Roxas can communicate with fish and creatures affiliated with the ocean. He can communicate simple ideas to them and they can understand the meaning of his words, though he currently has no special ability to understand them in return. Gained after completing The Little Mermaid.
  • A Midsummer Rose Upgrade: Roxas is now able to better understand the creatures he talks to. He can also instruct them to perform simple tasks.

  • Alice in Wonderland Upgrade: Roxas is able to understand the creatures he talks to, to the point of being able to understand them in return. The tasks he can instruct them can be more intricate, but they are still limited by their forms as to whether or not they can actually perform them or not.
  • Frankenhyde Upgrade: Roxas's understanding of sea creatures has grown, to the point where he can intuitively discern a sea creature's disposition and possible needs without needing to speak to it for long.

  • Mimicry - Using the magic of his voice, Roxas can mimic voices and sounds to create sound-based illusions. He can only create one sound at a time. Gained after completing A Midsummer Rose.
    • Alice in Wonderland Upgrade: Roxas is able to better mimic voices he knows well, as well as sounds he knows well. Listeners will have a harder time differentiating Roxas's interpretation from the real sound.

  • Frankenhyde Upgrade: Using his magic, Roxas can now make two sounds at once for his sound-based illusions, and makes it much harder to differentiate the illusion from reality.

  • Mermaid's Gift - Roxas can grant someone the ability to temporarily breathe underwater. This can be done either by using his magic to create a bubble for them to breathe, or by kissing them. The bubble only lasts a maximum of 10 minutes, while the kiss lasts 20 minutes. Gained after completing A Midsummer Rose
    • Alice in Wonderland Upgrade: The time allowed to breathe with the Mermaid's Gift is increased to 15 minutes and 30 minutes, respectively.

    • Frankenhyde Upgrade: The time allowed to breathe with the Mermaid's Gift is increased to 30 minutes and 60 minutes, respectively.

    Water Elemental - Using the power of his voice, Roxas can sing to the water and call forth a small water spirit under his control for a short period of time. The spirit is vaguely humanoid in shape and can perform simple tasks. The spirit vanishes if it is dismissed or if the water that forms it is scattered enough. Gained after completing Alice in Wonderland
    • Frankenhyde Upgrade: The elemental can now take on the form of a Dusk.

    Mermaid's Dagger - Roxas is given an elegant dagger that, when stabbed into dry ground, creates a small pond of water. The environment the ground in which the dagger is stabbed in will affect how much water is created; a dry desert will yield less water than a woodland forest. As of the current level, the amount of water created is enough to form one water weapon. Gained after completing Alice in Wonderland
    • Frankenhyde Upgrade: The water is still only enough to grant Roxas one weapon, but it is now deep enough to allow him to transform for a brief period of time.

    Mermaid Transformation - Alternate Form - Roxas gains the ability to transform into an alternate mermaid form. This form follows the same transformation abilities and restrictions as his usual form, but this form is more adept in polluted water. When confronted by significantly polluted water, Roxas will transform into this alternate form rather than his usual form. Gained after completing Frankenhyde

    Stormcalling - Roxas is able to use his voice to adjust the weather. He can call clouds to gather and create small storms. At his current level he can only affect the weather around himself for a brief period of time. Gained after completing Frankenhyde
