Character Corner: Sora




Name: Sora

Age: 16

Weapon: A vast array of Keyblades.  Currently he uses Oathkeeper as his main one.  Though other Keyblaes like two Become One, Oblivion, Bond of Flame, Wayward Wind and Lost Memory have been seen recently.  **During Drive Forms, Sora takes on not only his own Keyblade, but the Keyblade of the other Wielder.  Wisdom form is natrually exempt because Namine does not wield.

Quote: "There's something about you that I just don't like.  And my hunches have hardly been wrong before.  Maybe it’s because I know I’ve fought you before because that’s what Kairi said.  Maybe it’s because, somewhere, deep down inside of me, I remember exactly who you are and I don’t like you.  Or maybe it’s because I don’t like seeing Namine scared like that.  Whatever way it ends up being, I don’t think we’re leaving without a fight."


The Light-Hearted Keyblade Master.

Sora is still as light-hearted and easy-going as he always was.  He has a habit of throwing himself head-first into any problem presented to him.  He is always willing to help a friend, even if he just made the friend five minutes ago.  That hasn't changed about him, even since becoming a Keyblade Master.  

His best friend is Riku.  Though the two boys have competed since they first met each other, they are quite close and would do anything for the other.  His other close friends include Donald, Goofy, King Mickey, Namine, Xion, Axel, and his other persona: Roxas.  Roxas and Sora separated shortly before the Battle of Castle Oblivion where Xehanort was defeated.  This happened right after Ven was released from Sora's heart and right before Xion was recreated.  After the Battle of Castle Oblivion, Sora's heart was quite empty compared to the hearts it once contained.  

Though Roxas is his other persona, easily noted by the fact that the two boys have no qualms about poking fun at each other, it is not Roxas that Sora is closest with in heart.  That person is Kairi.  Sora largely ignored his feelings for Kairi, writing them off as nothing more than just caring for a friend.  That is, until she was thrown off a cliff by a Xehanort replica and Sora dived after her without a second thought. despite having no idea how he is going to save her.  Both of them are ultimately saved by a well-placed dark corridor formed by Axel and Sora then promptly shoves six Keyblades through the Xehanort Replica's gut.  Sora and Kairi have been boyfriend and girlfriend since the Battle of Castle Oblivion, where Sora almost off-handedly asked Kairi if she would during a giant Dragoon battle.  It was also after that fateful battle that the two of them shared their first kiss, which led to silent applause and relief from all of their friends.  It is no secret that Sora would do anything for Kairi to keep her safe.  

Generally speaking, Sora cares about all of his friends and would bend over backwards to keep them safe.  

Sora's heart still has quite a lot of light in it, though he has begun to notice as of late that there is darkness creeping inside.  Currently, Kairi and Roxas are the only two who are aware of his problem, but both of them are quite determined to keep him from falling into darkness.  The only reason why Sora has yet to tell Riku is because he is afraid of what Riku will say.  But given Sora's history of such a light heart, even a bit of darkness creeping in cannot stop him from fully utilizing light attacks.

  1. Sora's runner-up quote was "We like pointing at things while we're deciding." It's just a random quote that totally encaptures Sora's personality. But, it lost out to a more-serious quote. Go fig.
