Product #13: Roxas

Roxas (ロクサス, Rokusasu^?) is the Nobody of Sora. The character's voice actors are Koki Uchiyama and Jesse McCartney in Japanese and English respectively. Xemnas found him in Twilight Town and gave him the epithet, "Key of Destiny" (めぐりあう鍵, Meguriau Kagi^?, lit. "Serendipitous Key"), using him to gather hearts for the Organization. Prior to the release of Kingdom Hearts II, screenshots and video showed Roxas without an Organization coat, in a black outfit with a white jacket and light brown pants. Roxas controls Samurai Nobodies and initially uses the Kingdom Keyblade in battle. He can manipulate the power of light to augment his physical attacks and create energy-based melee weapons and barriers. After Xion's sacrifice, Roxas inherits her Kingdom Key and turns both his and her Keyblades respectively into Oathkeeper and Oblivion, which both symbolize Sora's bond to Riku and Kairi and Roxas's promise to Xion to free Kingdom Hearts. Roxas' backstory and his joining of Organization XIII were further explored in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. Roxas first appeared in "Another Side, Another Story", a bonus trailer found in Kingdom Hearts, and is mentioned in several cryptic comments made by other Organization members in Chain of Memories.
