[ Character's Name ] : Ansem, Seeker of Darkness/Xehanort’s Heartless
[ Character's Age ] : …Ansem himself? Only nine years chronologically, but physically he’s in his twenties and his mind is that of a 70+ year old man
[ Series ] : Kingdom Hearts
[ Canon Point ] : If it’s all right, after Hollow Bastion in the first game
[ History ] :
Master Xehanort
Apprenticenort
And finally, this guy
[ Personality ] :
First and foremost, Ansem holds knowledge above all else. He ridicules Sora for not knowing anything, then turns right around and calls any attempt at learning a meaningless effort-perhaps because he knows that the Heartless are about to attack and ravage the islands. His thirst for knowledge is also evidenced in the reports, particularly in Ansem Report 10 where he states that, in order to learn of other worlds and all the knowledge they hold, he is willing to cast off his frail body and become a Heartless himself.
He is also a ruthless and manipulative man, stringing Maleficent along as a tool and mocking her after her fall. He also uses her as a means to prime Riku and twist him around into a proper vessel, opening himself to the darkness and thus Ansem himself-all so he could hold the Keyblade in his own hands, something he couldn’t do without a human body as Heartless are instead destroyed by it.
He views everyone as a tool or something that can simply be sent to slaughter-fodder for the endless numbers of Heartless under his command. He shows this especially once Kairi has fulfilled her purpose as a Princess of Heart. He approaches her, stating that her purpose has ended. His intention is quite clear: she no longer needs to exist, and he is willing to destroy anyone in order to be rid of her. And when Riku blocks his path from within, he sends Heartless after her.
Ansem is also vain. He states that he knows all that there is to know, and cannot see how he can be defeated by a mere child. He also wears clothing in such a way as to display his form. He is finely dressed, hair slicked back instead of left to fall in a mess, and he holds himself in a way that suggests pride in his appearance.
He is also a very cruel person, and very good at seeking out weaknesses through observation. When he seeks to possess Riku’s body, he uses the boy’s envy against him. Words are twisted, charm applied and charisma used to lure him in. Meanwhile, when he fights against Sora, he’s constantly berating the boy and trying to wear him down by telling him that he will not succeed because darkness conquers all-a truth Ansem believes in very much.
He has a tendency to speak in a low, nearly monotone voice until he gets worked up. Smugness is likely to be found in his tone, and if he’s berating someone or claiming triumph, his voice will change pitch. His arms are usually crossed over his chest, however, he’ll often use hand motions to punctuate his speech.
[ Strengths/Weaknesses ] :
I’ll just… List abilities for strengths…
Ansem has numerous abilities. First, there are the abilities all Heartless have. That is, traveling through corridors of darkness freely to move between worlds and locations within the world. They can also steal hearts by reaching into someone and pulling it out, thus both feeding and multiplying. Ansem, however, has many more abilities as a unique Heartless. He can summon his Guardian, something tied to him, to defend himself. This being can be temporarily detached from him to attach to his enemies to slow them down by draining their health or even holding them. When attached to Ansem, it can swipe at nearby enemies or block attacks. It can also fling circular discs that cut when they hit.
Ansem himself, meanwhile, can create barriers around himself and hover as well as create blasts of darkness. He can send his Guardian out to attack by sinking into the ground and firing up rapidly from beneath, or use it by summoning it in front of him and charging in a straight line to cause damage.
He can summon Heartless, to an extent. Usually only smaller groups of Lesser Heartless, or one or two Greater Heartless (like a single Darkside). His Guardian appears to be a part of himself, so it would be outside of this summoning. It’s only called out for battle anyway.
Finally, Ansem himself has the unique ability of being able to possess humans without taking their heart so long as they open their hearts completely to the darkness and thus him. However, someone with a strong will can force him down into their heart and keep control of their body. Otherwise, he will use darkness to remold the body to his own form.
As for weaknesses… Ansem is still a Heartless. He is very much ruled by instincts. On top of that, Ansem is very, very vulnerable to light-based attacks, and his pride is easily wounded if he loses a battle. Adding onto this, when he’s using the form of his host, he cannot summon his Guardian.
While he isn’t quick to anger, when someone does anger him, he tends to act rashly. He is also rash when he believes victory is in his hands, and this leaves him open.
[ Other Important Facts ] :
From his canon point, he is currently possessing Riku.

From Sirenspull
[ Questions? Comments? Concerns? ] :
Um, a problem I may have is that, while he won’t have to eat hearts, he’ll still want to create Heartless. This is something I’m willing to work around with mods.
Also, would he be able to use Riku’s form every now and then given his canon point?
