Sorry for the double post but this thing is long enough on it's own. For those of you who knew Xyana and Sade, the only change is Xyana's number.
Name: Xyana
Number VIII
Title: The Rebellious Nightengale
Gender: Female
Element: Sound
Appearance: Xyana looks young, seeing as she was only 18 when she lost her heart and became a nobody. She wears the Organization cloak, the same as Xemnas’s organization; Her hair is cut unevenly, up to her chin on the right side and past her shoulders on the left. It is a pitch black with purple streaks. Her eyes are violet, and can be both charming and piercing at the same time. It often looks like she is wearing eyeliner. She is fairly attractive with a small nose and medium sized lips. Her ears are pierced, the right one 5 times and the left 3. One of the holes on each side contains an earring with the nobody symbol. She is about 5' 8' and weighs about 130 lbs. When not in the Organization outfit, if ever, she dresses in a relaxed Gothic Lolita style.
Weapon: 2 ball and chain that can be summoned seperatly. (Think Gogo from Kill Bill vol. 1)
Personality
ark and cynical. She fully embraces the idea of Nobodies not letting emotion cloud her choices, but she does sometimes pretend to have them. In truth, she feels that having memories of emotion acts nearly identically to having a heart, only it allows more control of them. She loves logic and puzzles, as well as being very smart and an abstract thinker. As with many intelligent crafty cynics she isn't the most respectful and is very independent. Often deep in thought, Xyana can sometimes look as though she is depressed, and sometimes her thoughts are a bit, but as a Nobody, depression doesn’t effect her as it would a complete purpose. At times Xyana can also be quite irritable, while other times she will search another out to have a discussion or debate.
Bio: Well you didn’t want it to be short…
AS A FULL PERSON
As a girl, Naya grew up in a small peaceful village. She was always the loner and outside. Being the cynic she was, she questioned the stringent religious beliefs of the village. She was branded a heretic. Children her own age were told by their parents not to be friends with her. It was little wonder that when a mysterious illness started spreading, the overly superstitious town blames the 15-year-old Naya for starting it. It didn’t help that for a year of the plague, Naya’s own family, as well as the family of her only friend were not harmed. They said that she was channeling the energy of an evil spirit, or than some god had punished them for the sinner in their mists. It meant nothing to them when Naya explained that her family and the others who avoided the plague lived on a hill and got their water from a different source, or that the fish were becoming fewer in the stream. The accusations got so bad that her own parents asked her to leave the house. So she did, with the only person who believed her innocent being her younger sister Diani.
She fled far from her town. One night a group of mercenaries came through and tried to take the few things she had from her tent. In self-defense, Naya managed to kill one of them with a tent pole. Instead of trying to kill her, the group offered her to join them. She traveled with them as not only their youngest member but the only girl. A year later, her friend managed to find her, with news that her sister had fallen ill. Not only that, the nature of the epidemic had changed. Upon death, witnesses say, the recently deceses turn into strange shadow creatures and attack those around them. If attack, one become ill or dies, instantly become one of the creatures. The survivors had all managed to take refuge in the temple on the hilltop.
Naya returned as fast as she could. She found her sister quarantined with 2 other children and an older man. She was by far the worst off. Despite warning, Naya took her chanced and stayed by her sister’s bed, telling her stories, but more to her sister’s enjoyment, singing. Naya could tell that her sister was about to die that night. Her friend tried in vain to make her leave the room. It happened around midnight, in the middle of her favorite song, Diani’s body began to fade. A purple crystallized heart rose from her chest. Naya kept on singing, a single tear falling from her eyes. Instantly the dark creature appeared on th bed where her sister had been. Naya looked it straight in it’s yellow eyes and continued the song, even as it slashed across her own chest, killing her.
AS A NOBODY
(This takes place in Twilight Town, but it is quite a bit before KH2 and it is a much more violent and dangerous place.) Naya awoke in a strange woods. It was night time and raining. Naya was cold. It didn’t help that she was completely naked. She curled up against a tree trying to keep warm and rationalize what had happened. Suddenly she heard someone yell something to what she imagined to be another person. “Lets get back to the usual spot. We can find him in the morning.” A different voice answered, a girl’s this time. “Yea, if he’s still alive. I don’t know about you, but I am checking the forest.” That voice sounded as if it were getting closer. Naya hid behind a tree as footsteps approached. Naya knew before the girl said anything that she had been found. “What the-“ She girl approached. She was tan with long brown hair. Her clothes were ripped, but Naya was unsure whether or not that was on purpose. She stepped forward. “So your one of those weirdoes who just shows up randomly, and naked. Someone told me about you. What, do you guys live in these woods?” The girl sounded angry, but for some reason, Naya didn’t feel angry back. That made it easier to respond, but Naya still had no idea what to say. Finally she spoke. “Do you have clothes I could wear.” Naya surprised herself with how calmly she said it, the girl must have been to, because she just nodded.
The girl was part of one of Twilight Towns more notorious gangs. Naya proved her skill and was excepted, but at a low rank. She lived with the gang for about a year. As time went on she began learning the secrets of some of the members. She was not the only one who had come here out of no where. There were 2 others, Nathan and Muria. She also found out that both of them had special abilities whose full power they kept hidden. Soon, Naya discovered the same was true for her. She had the power over sound. The three of them became quite close. She also noticed something else set the three of them apart, though she couldn’t quite figure it out
Naya had problems with the gang, the hierarchy and it’s leaders. She was also tired of having to keep what she could do a secret. She had been thinking of leaving for a long time, but the advantages of staying outweighed the advantages of leaving. Naya found herself using logic to figure things out more and more since she arrived. What finally forced her to leave was the death of one of the higher ups brother. He was loved by almost everyone and the whole gang cried, even the toughest. The whole gang, that was, except Naya, Nathan, and Muria. That didn’t go over well with the highers. Branded as cruel, insensitive and inhuman, (the last one being not far off), Naya ran. Nathan joined her soon, followed by Muria. They lived mainly away from town, for fear of the gang, although they could take them on. Together they discovered their weapons and the extent of what they could do.
One day, while visiting town, Nathan spotted a conspicuous man dressed in a black cloak walking towards them. “Do you know what you are?” The man asked. Naya was puzzled. The man pulled them aside and explained what a Nobody was. He didn’t stay long. He quickly vanished through a portal he created. Naya and the others were stunned, but they were determine to find others. Already having nicknames themselves, Naya decided to form an Organization.
Her Organization was modeled slightly after her mercenary group and a little after the gang as well. One key difference is the lack of absolute hierarchy. She shares some of the leadership roles with Thannax, Nathan’s new name, and Ruxima, Muria’s, but other than that, they live more as a group than a hierarchy.
She had mixed thoughts about the death of the three Keybladers. She couldn’t have cared less about Kairi. She was to dependant on others to count for anything. Sora’s passing was almost celebrated. His attitude against Nobodies was nauseating. She felt bad for Roxas though. Poor guy, having Sora as an other. Riku had been curious and daring. His care for his friends reminded her of her own for her sister. But logically it made sense. They needed to go, they were a threat. So she didn’t dwell on it much. So now she sits as the superior of the Organization VIII of the committee.

Allegiance: Darkness
Keyblade:
Midnight's Void

She has fairly pale skin which contrast sharply with her violet eyes that are both deep and piercing. She wears thick eyeliner. She has a small nose and average lips. Around her neck she wears a gold necklace on a large gold chain. The pendant is shaped the same as Sora, only upside down. She wears a black long sleeve hoodie that is not too tight or extremely loose. On her hands she wears black fishnet gloves that go up to her elbow. She wears baggy black pants with three chains on either side, and two straps behind. On her feet she wears black combat boots.
Here is a sketch I did of her.
Personality: Sade is dark, cold, withdrawn, and she is hardly concerned with others. She is rude and anti-social. Sade is a deep thinker and is often lost in thought. She is often depressed, and doesn’t talk to anyone about herself. She is very smart and curious, though it isn’t visible and can be manipulative at times. She trusts no one and expects nothing of anyone. Despite what it may seem like however, she listens and hears everything. The only thing that can sway her cool and collected attitude is her own thoughts.
Bio: Sade was got her name, meaning “ray of light,” from her mother and father who were overjoyed finally to have a child of their own. Her name also reflected the situation of her world, Radiant Gardens a the time of her birth. Ansem the Wise nobly rules of the peaceful land. Her father was a cook in the castle kitchen and her mother was a gardener, so Sade grew up in the castle. Her curiosity led her to explore the castle from a young age. She poked around so much that Even, one of the kings apprentices installed multiple new locks on his lab. Some of his apprentices were kinder than others. Sade was always the more introverted type and never really made friends with anyone. She did outwardly have acquaintances, such as another girl growing up in the castle named Kairi.
When Sade was around 5 years old, things started to change around the castle. A new apprentice had arrived, which Aeleus told her was name Xehanort. Sade, ever curious was drawn to the new man. She leaned by hiding in the library about their experiments with darkness and Ienzo’s, the youngest, request for an expanded research facility. Things happened fast. First the experiments increased in number and secrecy. Even the apprentices who had been kinder were hardly seen. Then Ansem the Wise vanished, then Kairi disappeared. Then all of the apprentices. Finally strange creatures started attacking the people of the world, by then called by everyone Hollow Bastion. Some people fled. She heard one say they were off to another world. Many fell to these creatures, known as the heartless. The outskirts of the world fell first, but within a year they had reached where Sade lived. Not being able to sleep that night, she had watched her mother turn into one of them. Sade fled into the castle and hid in a small room she had found while exploring.
She didn’t cry for long. She stayed hidden, venturing out only for food or water. Thankfully the new leaders of the castle needed to eat. It took a while for the heartless to find her, but once they did it became a constant struggle. He fought them off with whatever she could, barely sleeping. She would get sick from lack of sleep, but what else could she do. This struggle for survival lasted like this from the time she was 8 to, the best she could calculate, 11. Three whole years. She was thin and sickly, but alive. At age 11 she began having strange dreams in her short fitful sleep. Dark dreams about a key. One night the dream was especially vivid. She was on a platform in darkness. A voice out of nowhere said. “You are it’s rightful bearer, but the kings heart is strong.” With a flash a key appeared in her hand. It have a silver base and a gold blade. The shape of the key at the end fit perfectly with her necklace. Then next day as a swarm of heartless approached, Sade grabbed for a pole she had been storing for defense. It began to glow a dark purple and red. Suddenly it transformed into an extravagant key-like thing of black and ocher. She didn’t have time to think. This key worked way better than anything she had ever tried. And made her life remarkably easier. She began to venture out of her hiding place to spy on the masters of the castle, a witch named Maleficent, and Xehanort, or what looked like him, calling himself Ansem. She learned of the power of darkness and even snuck into the library to read up on it.
One day while she was curled up on the bed in the old bedroom she hid in a heartless approached. She figured it was as good a time as any to test her theory. It was a theory that slowly developed from a nagging within her heart at the beginning of the reign of darkness. It was shaped by all she had seen and learned. As the heartless approached she whispered softly, “Stop.” The heartless looked around as if confused. More came. Again she whispered, “Stop,” And again they stopped. A purple glow had begun to form around Sade and her eyes looked as if they were glowing. Before she could try anything else, the heartless scurried away.
The responded to the being of the most darkness, which was Maleficent, second only to what she had figured out to be Xehanort’s heartless. She passed her time reading and writing and occasionally chatting with a shadow heartless she had under her “spell.” She found out that Ansem was looking for a key. Whether he didn’t notice her or she was just not the right one, she did not know until later.
When she was 14 someone knew came to the castle, another human. His name, she found out, was Riku. It was no surprise for her that he was fro another world. She had known about them for a long time. She just wished she could travel to other worlds like Maleficent let Riku do, but she didn’t dare try to sneak through.
She followed everything that happened in the last year from Riku’s point of view. She could tell his heart was similar to hers, though also slightly different. She watched him battle Sora and except the darkness, or more specifically, “Ansem.” The more she watched Sora the more she realized that even if Xehanort’s heartless had noticed her, only Sora would have worked. Xehanort truly was smart. She watched Maleficent fall, Sora turn into a heartless and back, and finally watched him disappear into the heart of the world.
Soon after something that Sade had given up on happened. People started returning, and rebuilding. After a bit, Sade came out of the castle. She had not spoken to another person in around nine years. Though she was introverted quiet and slightly disrespectful as a young child, she was now cold and aloof. What else could one ask. Often the returnees would ask for her story after telling their own. “You shouldn’t care.” She often answered. The Hollow Bastion Restoration Committee had set up orphanages for children who returned without parents and, against her will, Sade was sent to live there. The other children tried to befriend her at first, but then gave up. After about a year she ran away from the orphanage. No one tried to stop her, no one could. Naturally she fled back to the castle, back to her small room. That was home for her. During all this time she did not show her Keyblade to anyone and used it only when needed to protect herself, though she did summon it just to analyze it every once in a while.
She did still visit town. Her main source of news was a man who called himself Leon. She would talk to him because he wouldn’t ask about her because he didn’t want the questions directed at him. Nor was he sickly happy al the time like some of the others.
She had noticed that it seemed, for about a year, all of those who had known Sora said nothing of him. She noticed, but didn’t care. What she did notice during that year were a gradual influx of heartless and the appearance of new beings that no one knew quite what to call. After that year, Sora himself showed up. She learned of a new threat. Nobodies. She quickly became fascinated with them. All she felt were negative emotions. To be a Nobody would be a drastic improvement for her. She watched the Organization whenever they were on her world. Alone in the castle she mastered the dark portal she had watched them make. She hated Sora for destroying them, for some of them were not evil at all. The king showed up too. Instantly Sade recognized him and his key from her dream long ago. As she looked at the key it faded ever so slightly for a second as if longing for it’s true master.
She found out from Leon soon after that Sora, Riku, and Kairi had defeated the Organization and returned home. Life went relatively calmly for a few years. Sade took advantage of Merlin, still not revealing that she was a keyblader. Never the less she learned to channel her darkness into magic. She practiced sparing with Leon using a sword as apposed to her Keyblade, and sometimes she would hide away and practice her slight command over the heartless which she was strengthening slightly. But most of the time she spent alone, thinking, reading, or writing.
One night she had a dream. It was a simple dream and it’s meaning was clear enough. Three skeleton keys fell in all black one at a time. When she woke up she knew what had happened. Her trip into town confirmed it. Yuffie passed by silently. She found Leon sitting n a low wall with his head in his hands. She stood in front of him. He looked up. His eyes were red from crying, and she had never seen him cry. “They’re dead aren’t they.” She said matter-of-factly. Leon just lowered his head.
Soon after, the Mouse King arrived to consult the committee. Sade could not get into the meeting unseen so she waited outside. She couldn’t hear much, but all of a sudden she heard Cid scream, “What? A keyblader here in Radiant Gardens?” Sade froze and listened more closely. She faintly heard footsteps coming towards the door. Sade walked a few steps away from the building as not to look like she was listening. The door opened and she heard Leon’s voice. “I bet I know who it is too.” The door closed behind him. “I knew you’d be out here, Sade. You have a Keyblade don’t you.”
“So what if I do or don’t. What does it matter?” She said coldly.
“Come inside,” Leon motioned to the door. “The King wants to talk.” Sade scoffed but followed.
She leaned against a wall opposite the King. The mouse summoned his Keyblade. “You know what this is, right?” He said. Sade chuckled and stuck out her hand. The key vanished from the king’s hand and reappeared in her own.
“A Keyblade.” She said. The key jumped back to the king’s hand as he called it back in shock. Her hand glowed purple for a second as her own Keyblade appeared. “Midnight’s Void.” She stated without emotion. “What do you want.” Mickey explained the meeting of the keybladers. Sade was genuinely not interested in saving anyone, but the prospect of traveling to new worlds won out. She followed the king to his Gummi ship and left.
Other.
If it wasn’t already clear, she is the rightful bearer of Mickey’s Key but his heart is strong enough to hold onto it. Also, your Rping effect which side Sade ends up on, if a side at all.
