CHARACTER NAME: Roxas
CANON & HISTORY: Roxas on the Kingdom Hearts wiki
AGE: Physically and mentally about 15, but has only actually physically existed for exactly one year
CANON POINT: Immediately after his battle with Sora and final conversation with Axel at the end of Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix
PERSONALITY:
Despite his being a Nobody, Roxas shows genuine emotion on a number of occasions; this is due to his retention of Ventus's heart when split from Sora, which also shapes his appearance. In personality, Roxas is similar in many ways to his Somebody, though the events that shaped them change his attitude toward life in dramatic fashion in other ways.

The primary trait that both of them share with the same intensity is a deep loyalty to those they care about. Initially shown as he bonds with Axel and Xion, Roxas will do absolutely anything for his friends, fighting for them in any way he can. Fully willing to betray the Organization- The only foundation and group he has ever known- in order to fight for Xion's existence, and equally willing to speak directly against higher-ranking members to defend Axel's honor, Roxas cares far more for the defense of his friends than for his own life.

In contrast to Sora, Roxas does not share the same lust for adventure and life that his Somebody does. Quite often desiring to just continue the same routine he always had, Roxas is only shaken out of this habit by his friends needing him or when absolutely forced to. Otherwise, he'd be perfectly happy to just sit and eat ice cream on the clock tower. That being said, he is far from complacent; when told to simply take his place he will rebel against fate and authority, refusing to simply play along and be a good pawn. His bitterness towards DiZ for his seeking to use Roxas only to reawaken Sora continues onwards until his end, leading him to fight Sora directly simply to try to claim his own life.

A bit of a reckless individual, Roxas is prone to anger when he's contested or faced with unfair behavior. While his behavior can be read as selfish at times-- arguing for his own existence despite it preventing Sora from awakening, and fighting Axel simply because he doesn't want to be told what to do-- He is far from refusing to help when needed, eventually acceding to the other boy's need to awaken to save the world and still treating Axel as his best friend.

Possessed by hatred for those who would dominate him, Roxas challenges fate constantly and seeks only to live a normal life alongside his friends. His bitterness towards the cards he's been dealt cloud the cheerful, friendly boy underneath, albeit one with a moody streak. Preferring to eat ice cream on clock towers and beat other children with foam bats, Roxas will nonetheless take up the Keyblade if the world desires it-- Despite his desire to live his own life and ignore the life he's been given, his innate heroism drives him to selflessly sacrifice everything he wants to save the world.

POWERS:
As Sora's Nobody, Roxas is capable of wielding the Keyblade, a powerful weapon that has both saved worlds and caused them great chaos. Its primary purposes are the destruction of Heartless, beings created from the hearts of those lost in darkness; closing Keyholes, the heart of a world and its source of light and power; and generally just being a large, powerful piece of metal. While it has special abilities when used against Heartless (and their counterparts, Nobodies), it is a strong weapon of its own accord, and has been used against non-Heartless living beings and those not corrupted by any darkness at all with incredible efficiency.

While Roxas, like Sora, is capable of wielding a number of Keyblades, the two he chooses to wield due to emotional connection are Oathkeeper and Oblivion. Whereas Sora wields these to represent Kairi and Riku, respectively, Roxas's use of them symbolizes his promises to Axel and Xion-- An oath shared with Axel to always come back for his friends, and his burning desire to return Xion from nothing.

Due to being Sora's Nobody, and Sora's possession of Ventus's heart, Roxas can wield two Keyblades simultaneously, and chooses to do so as his primary weapon stance.

Important to note is that the Keyblade is not something that Keyblade Masters carry in their possession usually, instead summoning it from within their heart. As such, the Keyblades will likely almost always be unavailable in the hub world. (The ability to summon the Keyblade will be usable in low-frequency worlds; however, it is likely safe to assume the ability to do anything with a Keyhole will not, as Keyholes likely wouldn't even exist in worlds outside of the Kingdom Hearts realm.)

Beyond the Keyblade, Roxas is a talented user of light magic. His primary skills, Event Horizon and Magic Hour, allow him to envelop the Keyblade in holy energy and cast down pillars of light that sear the opponent. Prior to his awakening in the data Twilight Town, Roxas was capable of using various other magics, but seems to have cast them aside in favor of his Keyblade and light magic. (Roxas's light magic will not be usable in low-frequency worlds.)

Much like Sora, Roxas is capable of great acrobatic feats, performing huge leaps and running up walls at will. Roxas also possesses great speed that Sora very rarely shows, moving in the blink of an eye to the point that he appears to simply teleport. He may, in fact, be actually teleporting. (Roxas will not be able to move at teleport-like speeds in low-frequency worlds, as it is unknown if he is actually teleporting. The rest of it is physical and will remain.)

Roxas's final ability is that to create Corridors of Darkness, traversing through the Dark Realm to teleport from place to place. Thanks to Roxas's price, he will be unable to summon these himself without access to someone else's coat or unless he somehow gets it back. (Even if he regains this ability, it will not be usable in low-frequency worlds.)

OTHER: Roxas is also a skilled combatant with a foam bat, highly talented at skateboarding, and not even a little afraid of swarms of killer bees. He's also prone to falling off clock towers and eating too much ice cream. Somewhat importantly, he does not remember Xion, though she will be unbearably familiar and pretty much anything could trigger his memories of her to come back- unless she leaves the game, in which case they'll be forgotten once more.

GAME INFO;

MAGIC ABILITY: Roxas has been granted the ability to unlock any lock. This power is relatively straightforward; he can only unlock actual physical locks, though the type of lock (padlock, tumbler, etc) does not matter. He cannot unlock, say, a password-protected computer, though if said password controls a physical lock he can unlock that lock and bypass the password entirely. If an actual physical lock object exists, the method of control is irrelevant to his power.
PRICE: His Black Coat. Highly representative of his time with the Organization, and by extension his time with Axel and Xion, the coat also is the only thing that allows him to safely pass through Dark Corridors, severely crippling his ability to get around. He also tends to use it to hide his face when he doesn't want to be recognized, which with Sora present will be often.
ACCLIMATION: Eight. Roxas is used to travelling to strange new worlds, and with Sora here there's no reason for him to not be here. He'll be a little frustrated with the magic system but other than that this is just business as usual for a former Organization member. He is entirely self-sufficient. Should Axel arrive, this would settle in at around a nine.
