* ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'': Xion was created as a replica of Sora and wields the Kingdom Key as her personal Keyblade. However, since Sora's heart is tied to many, she inherits not only his traits but also people close to him. Her default form is Kairi with black hair, because she was mostly based off of Sora's memories of Kairi. She is sometimes seen as Riku in dreams, and when her heart joins Roxas upon her defeat, the latter ends up gaining the ability to dual wield Oathkeeper and Oblivion, Keyblades that originally represented Sora's relationship with Kairi and Riku, respectively. Meanwhile, Xigbar sees her as Ventus, whose heart resides in Sora.
