Heart Purity

"*He's gifted, I know that. He won't stop giving up on his courage, and I know he will never. He's pure of heart.*"
— Denise about Baxter's Heart Purity in *Super Baxter 4: Forthcoming*

**Heart purity** (also known as **Path of the heart** or **Heart nature**) is the personality trait of some of the characters in *Super Baxter*. It efficiently means that either the character is pure good or pure evil, without any of the mixtures between the two. A character with this trait is said to be "pure of heart". This personality trait is a prerequisite to being able to use - or being resistant to - some techniques and abilities in the series.

## Overview

There are two ways to be pure of heart: to be either pure good, or pure evil. It is usually very difficult to be pure evil than it is to be good, as most good and heroic traits (such as saving lives and helping others) can surface much more quicker than committing sinful pleasures (such as envy and wrath). In addition, even if those being pure good doesn't make one immune to having evil.

It appears as if it is possible for sinful desires to be present and latent inside people, and those people will still be considered pure of heart, so as long as they repress the sinful desires. It is posible for a once pure hearted soul to become impure if they develop sinful desires.

While Baxter possesses a pure heart, he has killed people, though most were villains who gave Baxter little choice but to kill them (such as Sir JC), as Baxter usually spares the villains in order for them to make up for their sinful acts, but if the villains gave Baxter no choice as to attempt to blindside him, he will retaliate in killing them. This shows that one can commit potentially evil actions (such as killing) yet still be considered pure good as long as their intentions for doing so are good or lack anything negative.

Interestingly, Baxter Dark and Udion also possess Heart Purity, being pure evil. However should be noted that while their actions and methods are evil (stealing Baxter's body and murdering the War Children, to genocide of both gods and mortals) their motives are a results of Udion's strongly held belief that all mortals should've perished long ago, thus making them pure of heart.

Examples of negative feelings that can cause a person to not be pure good are:

**Lust**.
**Greed**.
**Aggressiveness**.
**Sadism**.
**Envy**.
**Wrath**.
## Things that are affected by Heart Purity

The following things require either the user to be pure of heart to use the techinque, or require the opponent to be pure of heart to resist it.

### Quick Learning

Those with a pure of heart to evil can learn quicker than those who can learn pure good, Raksha stated that Baxter struggled to keep up with Benson, but he was determined to never give up and keep pushing forward.

### Bombs

Bombs can only be created by those who are pure of heart. Anyone who is tainted by any negative thoughts would instead have the gathered energy absorbed into their body.

Furthermore, a bomb created by one of the two types of pure-hearted warriors (either pure good or pure evil) will not hurt anyone else of similar alignment. This means that a bomb created by a pure good warrior (such as Baxter) will not harm a pure good warrior (such as Gunther). Likewise, two-pure hearted warriors of completely different alignments can also harm or even kill the warrior on the recieving end with the move.

## Trivia

* Heart Purity can also be determined of an alignment chart, an example would be because of Baxter's pure nature and determination into helping others and fending off villains, he can be considered Lawful-Good, whereas Mahroe, a battle born king whose plan is to conquer the entire universe can be considered Chaotic-Evil.
