**Xemnas** is a major antagonist of the ***Kingdom Hearts*** video game series and its following manga/novel series. He is the main antagonist of the ***Kingdom Hearts II***. Xemnas is also known as the founder of the infamous Organization XIII and a core member of the Real Organization XIII.

Xemnas is known as the Nobody of **"Xehanort"**, who in reality is the possessedKeyblade Wielder  **Terra**. As the first Nobody born, Xemnas is devoid of emotions and desires to acquire his own heart to regain his feelings (which is however proven to be a false claim in later titles).

Cold and ambitious, Xemnas is considered the most powerful member of his Organization. His presence is well dreaded among his colleagues, even the neophyte Marluxia couldn't bear to face him alone. Xemnas has full knowledge of all Nobodies, including his fellow members that he marked with the Recusant's Sigil.

Despite appearing as a well-meaning extremist, Xemnas' actual plan is to manipulate the Organization into collecting hearts to form his artificial Kingdom Hearts, only to use its power to recreate the universe in his own image. However, his plans were foiled thanks to the actions of Sora and his allies.

Xemnas' main weapons of choice are his **Ethereal Blades**, a pair of red glowing blades created from Nothingness and allow the man to fight at close-range combat combined with athletic prowess.

## Appearance

Xemnas is an adult-like Nobody with a muscular-like posture, yellow eyes, and tannish-skin. Xemnas notably has white long hair with several spikes pointing upwards, including three bangs that drape over his shoulders. His overall features consist of him wearing the traditional black coat to fit in with his status as the Organization's leader. Xemnas also wears the Organization black gloves and boots similar to that of his colleagues.

Upon gaining the power of Kingdom Hearts, Xemnas acquires a different coat that resembles Sora's Final Form outfit. His coat now is covered in black and white stripes that resemble the Nobody symbol. He also appears to occasionally emit blue sparks of energy flowing through his hands, representing his control over Nothingness.

Along with that, Xemnas also possess a large, bulky Keyblade Armor resembling the No Heart armor. When equipping the armor, Xemnas chooses to sit down rather than use its full powers, indicating something odd with it. Unlike his other self Ansem, Xemnas bears an uncanny resemblance to Terra due to him being an older version of the possessed Terra's body via Master Xehanort.

## Personality

Xemnas is described as a cold and stoic figure with supreme dominance over his subordinates due to his presence as Organization's powerful leader. He is often emotionless as he displays little emotion about the events going around the Realm of Light. Xemnas expresses his sentences in a rather melodramatic, yet solemn manner which relates to his status as a being that lacks a heart. As mentioned before, Xemnas' inability to feel real emotions makes him quite exaggerated to the point of attempting to fake his emotions to deceive his enemies. He also treats his "friends" with cold-hearted ruthlessness, expecting them to obey every one of his commands, otherwise, he'd threaten them with brutal punishments. Toying with others is one of his specialties, meaning that Xemnas doesn't care about anyone save his own skin.

In reality, Xemnas is actually a ruthless sociopath who takes pleasure in making others suffer and grovel at his heel. Dream Drop Distance reveals that he intentionally tricked all of his Organization comrades that they'd never regain their hearts for his actual plan of turning them into lifeless vessels for Master Xehanort. Despite showing most signs of calmness during several scenarios, Xemnas is capable of expressing a few emotions such as pure shock or anger. It's implied that Xemnas himself might not believe that he has emotions due to being controlled under Master Xehanort. One of these moments was when Lea arrived to foil Xehanort's plan of turning Sora into a lifeless vessel, Xemnas expressed pure shock at seeing this unfortunate arrival.

In all appearances, Xemnas is mostly an apathetic individual who believes that nothingness should be eternal and anyone who tries to mess up his plans will receive cruel and unusual punishments on his behalf. On a few rare occasions, Xemnas does show a few signs of embracing friendships. This was shown when he witnessed Roxas sleeping due to a coma, reminding the Superior of his old "friend" Ventus, one of his original self's good friends.
