I'm not known well on this board, but I think I should probably post my theories here and save my self the effort from the "I told you so" category.
Now mind you before i begin, this is just a theory and I am in-no-way positive of this at all. This is just something I've thought about, and thought i'd share with the other KH fans out there like myself.
Another thing... I am in no way, shape, or form saying my theory is better then anyone else's. In fact, it was by a few that I read, that helped me gather my theory at all. Enjoy reading, comments are welcomed, and encouraged.
I myself would like to believe that this is more-or-less a badge of honour in being close to the darkness. It is well known that Xemnas has Golden eyes and a few others. This doesn't surprise me as the only ones with hearts close to darkness gain this characteristic.
2. Terra; I personally believe that this is the man that will in the future become Ansem's apprentice, and later to the evil overlord Xehanort. In Ansem's diary entries, he talks about finding a man whose memory was lost. However that he very prodigic. He learned things fast, and quickly became very intelligent in the dark part of hearts. It was by studying this that led him to get changed himself, and to quickly over throw ansem, and proceed to take his Masters name as his own.
In the BBS trailers we see that during the middle/end of the story, Terra get's the "Golden Eyes" characteristic. Now again I believe it to just mean that it is only for one whose heart is close to darkness. I.E. Master Xehanort. In the end, I just have a feeling that Master Xehanort and Terra have a battle. I'm guessing that in this battle somehow (maybe due to the darkness in both) they fuse, and form Ansem's Apprentice.
This would make sense on why he's so close to darkness already, and that they almost have identical facial features and characteristics. I'm betting that after this fight they have, Terra only remembers 1 persons name whom he hates so much... Xehanort. It was by this memory that he made it his name after he had over thrown Ansem the wise. As, this was the only thing he could truly remember before meeting Ansem.
My story is backed up in KH2FM. In a cutscene it is seen that Xemnas is walking down a long hall toward a room at the end of the hall. When he sits down in a chair, the room lights up, and so does something else. On the floor we see Aqua's armour lying there. It has come to speculation by Zexion and a few other Organization XII members, that he does this often. He to calling it his "Old Friend". This has also come to a few theories leading this room to be "The room of awakening". Maybe Xemnas's Memories are pouring out?
Another way to back this theory up is to just play KH2. In KH2 before/after you fight Saix, Saix tell's Sora that nobodies don't have hearts, however they remember what it was like. When Sora asks Xemnas if he remembers what it was like, I believe it went like this.
Sora: Xemnas... theirs more to a heart then just anger, power, and rage... It's filled with all kind of feelings. Don't you remember?
to which Xemnas responds
Xemnas: Unfortunately... I don't.
Think about why that is. Maybe lost memory before? How about a final fight with Xehanort that might lead his memory to be wiped.
3. Ventus; His story is unclear at this moment. However from what I have gathered, he does look a lot like Sora. However, it isn't really shown where Sora is at this time. Sure, maybe in magazine scans but in trailer;video format you haven't seen Sora anywhere near Ventus. Now tell me why is that? I have a theory on this as well. Read Below.
4. Vanitas; When I was following BBS for a long time, I thought that man under this helmet would look like Riku. Not anymore. The more i think about it now, looking back at everything. At Kairi's past, at riku's past, and then to Soras... that's when it hit me. how does Soras nobody (roxas) look like Ventus... even before their story was even started. Well, Sora is only shown as a child, but never mentioned beforehand. The lead director has said Vanitas has sora's voice actor, and that's when it hit me.
What if the man under that mask looks like Sora? More-to-the point what if that man might actually be Ventus's heartless? I know i know, it sounds stupid as crap, but think about it. All throughout the story, you keep hearing that Ventus has lost his heart. What if that's what he's looking for? What if that's what makes him so special? I mean, hell, he even has the heartless form-tight leather heartless uniform. What if Vanitas is truly, the first heartless ever to exist.
If this is the case, I'm wondering if that the final battle we see, might just not be both fusing somehow. (Maybe to the darkness again) and the only way that Vanitas could exist (being so filled with Darkness) is to be brought back to Childhood. To where, he could live purely as Ventus, but to have to live through Vanitas's body. You wanted wanted to know why Roxas looks like Vanitas, this would make sense. That, and Sora is actually about a year or two younger, then Riku and Kairi.
If not this, it might actually be possible it could be a whole-new character together. Maybe someone who looks like a boy-version on Xion. *shrugs* I can't get into detail here as my girl friend would think i pay more attention to a game character, rather then her... so.. yeah...
Now again, these were just a few theories I though I'd share with you. If you even think they suck, or can prove me wrong, please comment. I just want ot unlock the secret behind these characters as-soon-as-possible. I'm a little on the short side in cash so, I can't get a PSP to play this game anytime soon. I'll have to rely on subbed versions of DChiuch's videos on his youtube channel. Believe me though, I wont miss a minute of it.
