Sir Adamus

Yeah, sorry, had some trouble with deviantArt (which is where it's bigger), posted it from a backup.

Yeah, I dunno, just felt like drawing this: Dunno who she is, just some random character that walked into my head.

Mickey was in the middle of his mark of mastery exam during the events of BBS, so maybe the way Yen Sid does the exam is different than how Eraqus does it. And it's pretty likely that 3D will just be the exam, and Nomura wouldn't make a game that consists of a few fights and then end, so the game is going to have a few twists and turns in it. Maybe Xehanort will move before they can finish the exam, we can't know right now.

Since when did Sora ever use Darkness? He never used the power of Darkness, his main power is Light. Riku is the one who uses Darkness, but uses it more maturely than Terra ever did. Yes, but the darkness has been getting to Sora as time has gone on, and he has anti form, which is essentially him tapping into his inner darkness. I wouldn't be surprised if he begins to utilise the power of darkness as well.

Or neither, as the case may be.

Nomura does run the show with KH. He mainly does character design for FF though.

It's not a competition, but a test of heart. So they could both pass, or neither. Yen Sid will likely be a fairer judge than Eraqus, and Riku has control over his darkness, unlike Terra, so he's likely to pass.

Yes, because a five your old can grasp the sheer gravity of being granted the ability of one of the most powerful weapons in the universe, that he didn't even know existed, and was never told the name of. Yup, makes perfect sense. [/sarcasm]

yea but Roxas has his original body so technically Sora is or was still a heartless. You didn't pay attention to what I actually said, he was a Heartless, but Kairi reversed it. Her powers allowed a new body and soul, identical to the original, was formed.

Sora isn't a heartless, Kairi's princess powers forged him a new body and soul (identical to his old one).

Scientist #1: Should we try and find this cure for cancer today then Scientists #2? Scientist #2: Nah, I'm gonna see how many mints it takes to choke a kestrel. Scientists are fun as hell.

Well, how much do you remember of being 5 years old? To be honest, he likely forgot, he'd already determined that he wanted to leave before Terra showed up. However, he's said nothing about it, so there's no way we can actually be sure.

Holy Macaroni! You might be right! Yeah, that would actually make sense, if you are right, you deserve a cookie. Thanks, but I only used basic logic. From what we know, anyone can draw a sensible idea of what could have happened. For this example, assuming Xehanort knew about the technique to sealing LoD away (not specifically how, but he'd at least heard about it), when his memories were (at least partially) restored as Apprentice Xehanort, Xemnas would then have access to these memories. As Terra appears to be somewhat prominent within Xemnas, he could use this knowledge to find Ventus. What I drew from her was that we know Xemnas knew to search Castle Oblivion for the Room of Sleep, and we know he knows about such subjects as the X-Blade and what would happen to the person if it were to be destroyed. As it is not confirmed that Xehanort didn't know about sealing LoD, assuming that he had at least some knowledge of the concept (he IS a Master, and Aqua was told about it pretty much immediately, so it's quite likely), then him knowing where to find Ventus (as he knows Aqua, and she'd want to protect Ven, and there's no better place to hide a sleeping body than an unfindable room) seems quite obvious.

Well, Sora will be the main character til KH ends, so it cant be somebody else. Actually, it can. It could be anyone else. Sora is the protagonist of the Xehanort Saga. He can't very well be the protagonist of games based thousands of years before/after the Xehanort Saga. Nomura said Sora will be the main character til KH ends. So it cant be. I don't recall him ever saying that. I know he's confirmed to be the protagonist until the Xehanort Saga end due to his massive involvement and connection to it, but other sagas might occur in different time frames. Bringing Sora in for that would get gimmicky and stupid, thus, a new hero needs to appear to take the mantle. Sure, we might get a saga in which a young Xehanort may appear, or an old Sora, but those will be overlapping, Sora wouldn't be the protagonist of those.

That's a very good theory. I agree with that. Xehanort is a man of many schemes, and he could of somehow known about Land Of departure being changed into C.O. Anhd since terra-Xehanort later became aprrentice Xehanort, it could be quite possible that Xemnas found out about this through his memories of master xehanort. Though obviously he didn't remember everything, or he just didn't know, because he didn't know that only the creator of CO would know how to solve it's puzzle. Or he just assumed that if more than one person searched they'd find it.

Actually, Nomura said, "With the encounters, and the contacts with others as the game's theme, you will grow with the character, with the characters in the game. But it's not Sora, whom you are familiar with, this time you will realise growth by the effects of someone else." Grammatically, this is very different from 'This isn't the Sora you know'. Basically, we'll be growing with a different character in this game, presumably Riku.

Maybe Master Xehanort had some knowledge about sealing the Land of Departure like Eraqus passed onto Aqua, and these led Xemnas to suspect that Aqua stored Ventus there. He'd know that Ven-Vanitas was defeated, otherwise he'd be running around with the X-Blade. As Xehanort is a repository for all things Heart, he'd know that Ven would have lost his heart, as he knew that Aqua survived (the proof is in the armor) so the X-Blade must have been destroyed. Knowing that sealing the Land of Departure away would make it impossible to find something hidden there, Xehanort could connect the dots and assume that Ven's body was hidden in the newly formed Castle Oblivion. Presuming that Xemnas remembered this, or was using Aqua's armor to trigger these memories to connect the dots, it's safe to assume that this is a possibility.

Yeah, many suspect that it is Riku, due to his appearance in it as well. But we are familiar with Sora, we've grown with him over a few games, so we're being given a different protagonist to give the game a new sense of adventure, so that we can continue to grow with Sora in KH3.

I was just going to mention that! As much as I hate to believe it, considering how Sora and Roxas hardly have any similarities what so ever, this proves that he was talking about Sora. I think you have to remember that we're only seeing Sora and Roxas as video game characters. Within the Universe, they are very similar in appearance. Aqua even states in BBS that Sora is a button for Ven.

That would be what the name implies, a Lingering Sentiment is the remains of thoughts and feelings of a person. Like a ghost with unfinished business. Aqua was not in any circumstance to leave a sentiment, unlike Terra, who bound a part of his soul to his armor, creating the sentiment. So, yeah, Aqua most likely doesn't have a sentiment. Otherwise, presumably, when her armor is shown in KHII, it would have changed position, into a roughly human pose, like Terra's did when his was formed. However, Aqua's armor lies in it's prone, disjointed position when it is found at the end of BBS. So, yeah, we don't know how Xemnas found out about the Room of Sleep, hopefully that'll be dealt with in a future game.

No, Xemnas just fought Sora, he was talking about Sora. A lot of people have assumed that he was rwferring to Sora since Roxas is the nobody of Sora. But he was actually referring to Ventus. Xemnas only fought Sora to mainly take some of his memories and use them to create Xion. No, he WAS referring to Sora, because one of the major plot points in the Organization plot arc is that Xemnas couldn't find Ventus. Xemnas says: "I've been to see him, he looks a lot like you." Baring in mind that Xemnas encountered Sora in Hollow Bastion (see KHFM) not long after Roxas was born, and that he can't find Ventus, makes it very obvious that he was talking about Sora.

Well, Sora will be the main character til KH ends, so it cant be somebody else. Actually, it can. It could be anyone else. Sora is the protagonist of the Xehanort Saga. He can't very well be the protagonist of games based thousands of years before/after the Xehanort Saga.

And hair gel that defies all known laws of physics.

Or, this is an entirely crazy concept, but how about a protagonist that isn't related to Sora in any way? No, that's way too insane, otherwise someone would have already something. -_- Sora's fun and all, but it's high time he was retired and let someone new take up the lead role.

Marluxia was intended to be a girl, but they changed him to a male so that both of the traitors weren't female.
