In Siren's Port Simon will develop a dormant ability to produce and then breath into the atmosphere a slightly altered chemical from his universe known short hand as the Pax. A basic summary of what it does can be found here. Simon's version differs in that once he stops producing the chemical it will dissipate any victims will come around after

I'm not really sure Simon would ever need to hit Luxord with Pax, but just for the sake of getting things cleared up in case he does, how would it work on someone who is... perhaps not entirely human anymore?

For Nobodies, eh? Well the original Pax possibly worked on animals as well as humans, as in the movie the planet that the Pax was used on seemed devoid of all life even though the only corpses seen were human. However, for Nobodies it's trickier. As a general rule I think if the person he's using it on doesn't require air to breathe or doesn't have some other immunity (like Poison Ivy's for example) then it would have an effect. However, that raises the question of whether Nobodies really are little more than hollow shells or if there's some substance to their bodies.

If Luxord were the only one of his kind I'd leave it up to you to decide, but what do you think? It's a chemical reaction designed to work on living, organic beings. Do Nobodies not fall under that category? :|a

Stat-wise, I'm pretty sure most of the Nobodies get boss-immunity to status spells, buuuuut since it's not really my place to speak for the whole cast we probably shouldn't go with that. And canon is pretty clear that they're alive enough to at least partially exist - and they're most certainly organic.

idk about the reaver-fication half of it since lol emotions, but I'd say that they're at least susceptible to the Pax.

*nods* Sounds fair. And a good way to think of it is not as decreasing or increasing emotion but aggression, but since Reavers are so very horrible that would be entirely up to you and the other Nobody-muns if it ever happens, whether or not it can.

I've actually seen Firefly/Serenity so I know how it works! It's just that Kingdom Hearts is absolutely horrible about what and how much Nobodies can actually feel, as well as if they can actually feel.

Herp derp ignore my rambling then! XD And yeah, from what I remember about KH2 it was very vague about Nobodies and...everything.

[antedupmyheart]

So much vague forever, yeah. And thus far Nomura hasn't been helpful at all.
