------------------------------------------------
Name| Naminé, "it," the witch
Age| About a year old, appears fifteen
Gender| Female
Race/Species| Nobody
Alignment| Neutral
Loyalty| Loyal first to Sora, but she can be broken under another fist
Personality| As a Nobody, Naminé's personality is largely irrelevant. It's all just an act perpetuated by her desire to feel, which is a bit of an oxymoron in and of itself. But the Naminé she shows to Sora and Roxas is a small, implacably sad girl. She seems to know more than she lets on, and finds ways to speak to them under the noses of her oppressors.
Despite her situation, though, Naminé cares or appears to care a great deal for Sora, and to a lesser degree Roxas. She has a maternal side that comes out in lieu of her various manipulations and cruelties, and seems determined to make things turn out right in the end for them. It might not be the easy way, but Naminé knows the right way and will pursue it to the end of her own life.
Appearance|
Naminé would be Kairi's shadow if shadows were made of light, pale as a ghost with big blue forget-me-not eyes, soft golden hair, and frail limbs tucked away in an even more frail white dress and doll-like sandals. She looks breakable and she is, but while some might liken her to an angel, she's far more manipulative than all that and carries an omniscient sadness about her that she communicates in the simplest of movements.
History| Naminé is Kairi’s Nobody, created in the only way a Princess of Heart’s Nobody could be--by leaving Sora’s body instead of Kairi’s. Kairi’s heart is too pure to produce a Nobody without that technicality. Once born at the same time as Sora’s Nobody, Roxas, she fell into the Organization’s hands and was used to manipulate Sora’s memories. She erased Kairi and the better part of his travels and inserted herself as a fourth girl living with him back at Destiny Islands, gradually erasing more and more of his past until only she and Riku remained. She also erased everything Jiminy Cricket had written down in recording Sora, Donald, and Goofy’s travels, and changed the charm that Kairi had given Sora, as well as the memory behind it.
In the basement, the Organization’s Number IV (Vexen) created a Replica of Sora’s best friend, Riku. Originally, it didn’t have any of Riku’s memories and saw his original self as a weakling. But Naminé was ordered to alter its memories, filling them with Riku’s and gradually changing them to complement Sora’s false memories as the Keybearer moved higher into the castle.
But Naminé didn’t really want to go through with the Organization’s plan to add Sora to their ranks with her as his puppeteer, and so when the Organization’s Number VIII (Axel) gave her the chance she ran to meet him in Castle Oblivion’s contrived Destiny Islands and undid some of her work on his memories. Sora realized that she wasn’t the person most important to him, but still couldn’t remember Kairi. It was at this point that the Replica intervened, nearly killing Sora before Namine made the chilling decision to smash the heart she had created for it and render it a useless doll. The Organization’s Number XII (Larxene), who had encountered Sora earlier in the castle and was fond of tormenting Naminé, proceeded to lay out in glowing detail how the Organization and Naminé had been fooling him all along--much to Naminé’s faked shame and dismay. But when Larxene moved to destroy Sora, Naminé leapt to his defense in spite of all she’d done. Larxene swept her aside like a doll, but it bought Donald and Goofy enough time to catch up and protect Sora.
Once Larxene was eliminated, Naminé explained more fully what she had done to Sora and his friends’ memories, and promised to watch over the broken Replica while they went on to take out the Organization’s Number XI (Marluxia) and lord of the castle. But Naminé was seized by Marluxia before Sora could fight him, and once Axel was out of the way, Marluxia ordered her to erase Sora’s memory completely. Naminé was shocked and outright refused. But Sora urged her to go ahead, insisting he didn’t need it to fight Marluxia and that it would be worse if Naminé were killed.
Just when things looked bleak, Riku’s Replica attacked Marluxia, freeing Naminé from his clutches and defending her along with Sora. Sora proceeded on alone to battle Marluxia, leaving the Replica to protect Naminé as he’d wanted, and returned victorious. The Replica left them and Naminé gave Sora a fateful choice; either give up the memories he’d lost and accept himself as he was now, or sacrifice the memories he’d gleaned from his experiences in Castle Oblivion and return to the Sora of before. Ultimately, Sora decided to do just that, and Naminé sealed him away in a pod while she started to reconstruct his memories--but not before making a pinky promise to meet up and become friends for real when he awoke.
The real Riku also encountered Naminé, once when she spoke to him in Kairi’s voice to save him from Zexion’s darkness, and again when he went to the false Twilight Town. She offered him a chance to seal away the darkness that was Ansem (actually Xehanort’s Heartless) and go back to the Riku from Destiny Islands, but he turned her down.
Together with DiZ, the three of them watched over Sora during the long year he was asleep. During that year, Naminé met with the fourteenth Organization member, Xion, and Riku collected the Organization’s Number XIII (Roxas) to return him to Sora. For seven days, the Nobody whose memories of the Organization had been erased lived in a data copy of Twilight Town created by DiZ and gradually lost himself to Sora. Naminé met with him briefly to explain to him what he and she both were, and what was going to happen when he rejoined Sora. Ultimately, she was jettisoned and taken under Axel’s wing when he came to collect Roxas and failed. Riku allowed the both of them to escape despite the fact that DiZ had ordered them destroyed.
Naminé then requested that Axel bring Kairi to her from Destiny Islands, but in transit Axel lost her to the Organization’s Number VII (Saix) and was killed between the data Twilight Town and The World That Never Was, where the rest of the Organization was headquartered. In lieu of him, Naminé went to The World That Never Was and rescued Kairi from captivity. Along the way, they encountered Saix, but a cloaked stranger who proved to be Riku fought him off and Naminé joined with Kairi. She appeared one more time, opening a portal to Destiny Islands for the victorious Sora, Riku, Kairi, Donald, Goofy, and King Mickey once Xemnas was (presumably) destroyed. Then she spoke briefly with Roxas and disappeared into Kairi permanently, only able to smile at Roxas when Kairi smiled at Sora.

Weapons| Naminé carries none, but can manipulate memories through her sketchbook.
Abilities|
Items| Other than her sketchbook and crayons, Naminé carries no items of interest. She once altered Kairi's charm and another unidentified item in order to create the twin charms that deceived both Sora and the Riku Replica, but she no longer possesses those.
Fighting Style| Naminé doesn't actually fight, but when she is roused to action it's generally by force. Someone must be in immediate, serious danger to call for her direct interference.
Other Information|
RP Sample| It wasn’t the drawing that really mattered, it was the memory behind it--and the memory was very clear in most cases. The ability to see into Sora’s mind, sort out the cloudy realities within, and carefully link this event to that one like a string of pearls came at a price: she was only present in the memories that lay in shadow.
But for all the acting, all the flinching and crying and bowing her head, Naminé couldn’t be hurt by the rejection. The blue eyes that followed the colored pencil’s winding trail on the page were soft, a young girl’s, but as calculating and analytical as a cat’s. Her mouse, the one who had chased his way into her claws, was locked in suspended animation before her. He was insensate and vulnerable to her every whim, and she could take advantage of that in a second. She could cut short her work on his chain of memories, break it like she’d broken the Replica, and restore the Sora from Oblivion--or even start anew, create a new falsification and force him to live a lie with her.
The pencil froze on the page, in the process of coloring red hair she did not possess.
Sora was at her mercy, as he had always been.
And so Naminé sat with her legs curled under her and shaped the paopu fruit in the hands of a girl she could never be.

Weapons| Naminé carries none, but can manipulate memories through her sketchbook.
Abilities|
- Memories: Naminé is capable of altering and even breaking apart memories connected to and belonging to Sora, but not erasing them, and her abilities are limited to Sora and those connected to his heart.
- Illusion: Especially utilizing Castle Oblivion's power, Naminé has the ability to change the appearance of objects such as the charm she altered and the pages she "erased" from Jiminy's journal.
Items| Other than her sketchbook and crayons, Naminé carries no items of interest. She once altered Kairi's charm and another unidentified item in order to create the twin charms that deceived both Sora and the Riku Replica, but she no longer possesses those.
Fighting Style| Naminé doesn't actually fight, but when she is roused to action it's generally by force. Someone must be in immediate, serious danger to call for her direct interference.
