Quote:  "You know what, on second thought, Roxas and I are just going to go get ice cream.  You two can join us when you get this sorted out."

A replica with quite a bit of spunk.

No longer afraid to speak out, Xion is quite spunky, witty and sarcastic.  She is no longer afraid to stand up for what she believes in.  She is very kind and accepting and generally believes the best about people.  She takes her friendships very seriously and would do anything to make sure her friends remained safe.  The only thing that she takes more seriously, is her relationship with Roxas, for obvious reasons.

Xion and Roxas have been through a lot since their Nobody days.  Xion was restored by Roxas giving her all of her memories back, seeing as he was the one who absorbed the majority them upon her original destruction.  (Namine was the one who had the rest of them.)  However, given her state when she was destroyed, upon her awakening, she still thought she was programmed to destroy Roxas and tried to run away.  It takes both Namine and Axel to convince her that this has been changed.  She then wasted no time in hugging Roxas because she knew she was no longer a danger to him.

Xion has proven herself to be very resilient during battle.  In the Battle of Castle Oblivion, Xehanort cut off her arm.  Yes, she passed out initially, but when Axel drank a Mega-Potion she got right back up and continued to fight, left-handed, no less.  Xion’s arm was rebuilt after the Battle and she parades it around like a wonderful battle scar.  Xion also is the only one currently residing on Destiny Islands who can form Dark Corridors with no detriment to her heart.  This skill becomes invaluable for travel to and from the Realm of Darkness, which is necessary on occasion. 

Xion and Roxas’ relationship came about rather quietly.  It was only after the Battle of Castle Oblivion that the two of them could even consider such a thing, even though it was quite obvious that they’d had feelings for each other prior to this.  She and Roxas have a quieter relationship compared to the other couples living on Destiny Islands, but that does not mean it is any less important.  She and Roxas have the relationship where a typical date may very well include slaughtering Heartless followed by ice cream.  And both of them are content with that.

Xion is quite content to be living on Destiny Islands where she can go out during the day with Roxas, or Namine, or Kairi and kill Heartless, followed by an ice cream break on the Clocktower and then return back to Destiny Islands at night to sleep.  (Or read, since she doesn’t need nearly as much sleep as anyone else.)  This is something that she jokes about with people like Roxas or Riku.
