WARNING: This section contains spoilers. To read them, highlight the blacked-out section by pressing Ctrl-A. Read at your own risk.

Name: Riku

Class: Wielder of the Soul Eater

Weapon: Soul Eater

Sidenotes: Riku and Sora grew up together as best friends, until Kairi came along... and then they were all best friends together! One night, after planning with his best friends to try to get off the island they'd grown up on, a bad storm unleashes hordes of strange evil creatures onto their home. Riku then gets swallowed up by the darkness, and becomes possessed by an entity who calls himself Ansem, because Riku's heart is full of darkness. Later, Sora defeats Ansem, and Riku decides to lock himself behind the door to darkness with King Mickey. In Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Riku finds himself inside Castle Oblivion, the same castle Sora is in, but he is at the very bottom level of the basement. At the end of the game, he learns that as long as he still has darkness in his heart, Ansem will continue to live, in some form or another. He and King Mickey then set off for unknown places.

Recruitment: He joins up after the fight against Saix. You also get to control him at one point during the final battle.
