The new Organization XIII members

#1: Xukri (The Superior) follows unknown

At this point in the story, we know very little information about The Superior, or "Xukri", as he is called by very, very few of the Organization members. He is close to Fayxt and has a negligible fear of him, even as the leader of the Organization in its entirety. Thought it is not clear why, he is extremely unenthusiastic at the thought of Riku having a bigger role in this battle of dark vs. light, and is also not as leader-like as he should be. Fayxt is constantly reminding him of how everything should be working, and at some moments it seems like Fayxt has more authority than his leader.

Also, he and Fayxt hint that the reason the two of them, along with the rest of Organization XIII, are there as a result of "The Slumber". Could this have any connection to the mention of "The Slumber" in the letter…?

#2: Xaice (The Double-Bladed Menace) follows Axel

Sarcastic, patient (at times), and the second-in-command. Always ready with a smirk and a smart comment, and never ceases to mock his opponent. Ruthless on the battlefield, however, and the lead fighter of the Organization. He makes full use of his abilities with the element of fire and combines it with attacks for a devastating effect. Off of the battlefield he's a full-time prankster, and especially likes to annoy Rarext by referring to her as his girlfriend.

Nickname: D-men, derived from his title. See Q and A section for explanation.

#3: Xarik (The Pierce of Defeat) follows Larxene

Idolizes Larxene with all of her heart, and wishes nothing more than for Sora to be defeated once and for all--preferably by her. Quiet, but violent, impatient, and two-faced...among those she respects, she is subordinate when need be and calm, but among her enemies or when on the battlefield, she's an unstoppable, power-hungry fighter with no mercy or kindness to be found, much like her idol.

Nickname: Xar.

#4: Rarext (The Malevolent Princess) follows no one

Mysterious, angry at most times, and the second true enigma of Organization XIII. No one understands how, even past the theory of following, she was the second girl to join in the new Organization. She follows none of the original members and has no weapon, like Zexion before her. Yet, she doesn't follow Zexion, and even stranger, there is no one in the new Organization that does. Some of her fellow members have

a suspicion that she is somehow connected to Fayxt, who also is quite mysterious. Rarext never fights, and is merely the cold-hearted strategist of the battlefield.

Nickname: Rare, or sometimes Princess (usually only by Xaice).

#5: Zaix (The Deceitful Bandit) follows Saix

A little slow on the uptake, and, surprisingly, very similar to Demyx. The trait that he shares with Saix is that he is a little more skilled in

battle, and fights with two small blades (similar to Rikku's) that are small enough to fit inside pockets that he sewed into his black cloak.

He also has the ability to channel his power in a "berserk" mode when he is close to defeat--which happens rarely, if not at all. Zaix is extremely cunning and sneaky, earning him his fitting title. Whenever the Organization needs something--or someone--stolen, Zaix is put on the job first and foremost.

Nickname: Zai.

#6: Lenexa (Rapid Downfall) follows Xigbar

Lenexa is one of the best examples of following in the Organization. He is very much like Xigbar--black hair (though it's shorter) with a blonde streak (instead of silver), and he has a surfer-dude attitude. Also, Lenexa fights with the same weapon as Xigbar, a gun-type weapon that shoots energy bursts in the form of purple, bullet-like streaks of light. A very swift fighter with tons of speed, agility, and ability to dodge all sorts of attacks, he could be used in close combat but fights mainly at a long, but not too long, distance.

Nickname: Len.

#7: Texal (The High-Stake Horror) follows Luxord

A gambler to the end, Texal studied Luxord's fighting style diligently, and has crafted himself into a formidable opponent. He does fight with cards and dice, but in a different way--his cards are normal sized, and can be used in a way similar to throwing knives. His dice, on the other hand, explode on contact. Has a good sense of humor, but is also very serious and determined. He's the one you want with you on a mission or on the battlefield, due to his unswerving concentration. It's his belief that losing focus is the same as losing a hand in poker--it won't cost you right then and there, but it could have long term effects. This theory is showcased through his focused and aimed attacks, which rarely miss.

Nickname: Ace (just like the card).

#8: Fayxt follows Roxas

As you can assume, Fayxt is very special. He follows Roxas, and by having that title he is ostracized from the rest of the Organization. In fact, he rarely ever leaves the top floor, and rarely lets anyone in. Xukri is the only one that has seen him more than once, and no one has ever seen him fight. His fighting style is revealed at the end of the story in the final battle. Most of his fellow members are afraid of him, partly because of his exact resemblance of someone they'd hoped to never see again, and partly because he can be kind and calm one moment, and violent and cold the next--causing them to keep their distance. Fayxt looks exactly like Roxas, except for one slightly eerie difference--his eyes are a dull gray, and he's completely blind. He defends himself by sensing shockwaves from his opponent's movements, thus giving him the ability to dodge spells and air attacks. He dodges ground attacks by sensing seismic vibrations from footsteps, and even the rhythm of an adversary's breathing. For a weapon, Fayxt wields a Darkblade, which was reconstructed from the hearts of the former members of the Organization. If he is defeated in battle, the lost members of the Organization will be reborn. There is only one way to defeat him and prevent that from happening. The first step is to steal the Darkblade from him, which is a battle in itself. The second part is too big of a spoiler to mention here.

Nickname: none.

#9: Nexhayd follows Marluxia

A born-to-be-wild rebel, Nexhayd (who is rarely referred to by his full name) fights with a scythe, just like Marluxia--minus the flower petals. Instead, he uses psychic energy to form invisible wavelengths of dark energy which he blasts towards his enemies at incredibly high speeds. The only way for one to sense them is to be connected with the darkness in some way, which will enable you to "see" them, though not very clearly at all. He can attack as well as defend with his scythe and his psychic abilities, combining them to make forcefields, barriers, and more. Nex (as most call him) is hardly ever sent out on the battlefield alone, and works in groups of two or three, alternating with his invisible attacks and barriers to provide almost unavoidable cover-up attacks (they're not incredibly powerful) and unyielding defensive front, followed by all-out offensive attacks by his comrades.

Nickname: Nex

#10: Renterx (Balance of Yang) follows Vexen

Renterx is the first "born" of the Yin-Yang Nobody twins. He is extremely smart and strategic, and uses both his brains and brawn on the battlefield.

Besides knowing hundreds of ways to kill someone and just about everything academic, he also is intelligent in the sense that he is very adept at

psyching out his opponent, sensing their every weakness, and finding the most effective and quick way to attack and kill them. He fights with

elemental magic and nothing else, and is never without his loyal sister Kasix, who uses her amazing sword techniques to back up her brother's

lightning, fire, water, earth, and air attacks. He can also heal his allies, but only to a certain degree. The two are almost an unstoppable duo and are

used to working with Nexhayd to create a terrifying combination of attack, defense, and healing elements.

Nickname: Rent

#11: Kasix (Balance of Yin) follows Zexion

Kasix, the younger of the Yin-Yang Nobody twins, is another good example of following. Zexion was known for his mind games, and Kasix has certainly

inherited the trait and uses it to the best of her ability. While her brother Renterx is also very skilled at the same aspect of battle, Kasix is frighteningly

deadly in how she completely disarms her opponents mentally, and then attacks them with an awe-inspiring amount of sword skill. She is credited with

having killed 10 of her enemies in one deft blow, which for her is a minor accomplishment. She combines her weapon attacks with what she calls her

'shadow skill', using techniques such as darkening the battlefield and making herself invisible to further throw off her opponent. Combined with her

brother's intelligence and Nexhayd's immense psychological impact on the enemy, Kasix and 'her boys', as she calls them, are almost a sure sign of

defeat when met on the battlefield. She and Nexhayd flirt frequently, but her brother isn't entirely supportive of the idea (brothers will be brothers).

Nickname: Kassy or Kas

#12: Taxea (Victory's Storm) follows Xaldin

Taxea, the fourth of the four girls in the Organization, is very much like Rarext, temper-wise. She has a short wick and is set off very easily, and once

she gets angry there is very little that can stop her. Like Xaldin, she fights using wind, but only uses a single lance--finding it easier to control the one

weapon instead of worrying about controlling many. She doesn't have much aptidtude in the way of strategy or strength, but can dodge attacks well

enough that she can wait for an opportune moment to try and make an attack. Also, her wind attacks alone, while not very powerful, can create mini-

storms when combined enough times. She rarely fights only due to her lack of raw talent or ability for fighting, and sometimes, though not often, works

with the Yin-Yang twins and combines her wind and lances with Renterx's wind and Kasix's swords for a powerful team of three. If Nexhayd is involved,

she uses her control of the wind to provide distraction while he, Renterx, and Kasix attack in unison for a deadly combo.

Nickname: Tax, but she is rarely ever called by her nickname

#13: Xantu (The Subordinate Strategist) follows Lexaeus

Xantu is the one member that sometimes seems to be left out of the Organization's missions, mostly because Lexaeus was not known well by the above-

ground members of the group in the days of Castle Oblivion, and his death at an early point after his recruitment made him less well-known. Xantu fights

very, very rarely, and usually works with Rarext in strategy. He is arguably the most strategic member of the Organization, and he and Rarext work well

together--she isn't talkative at all, he's quiet; she has a short temper, he doesn't anger people easily. Both of them are very skilled in analyzing the

battlefield and finding the most effective positions for all of the fighters involved to enter and attack from. Xantu isn't seen much, so when he is it's

obviously a very big deal. When he fights, it's an even bigger deal. His weapon is merely his fists (brass knuckles), and while he isn't very skilled in battle

tactics while actually on the field, he makes up for it in strength and speed. He is also well informed on which places of the body will weaken an opponent

more and which cause paralyzation. To gain the upper hand, he commonly weakens his enemy as much as possible before attempting to paralyze them. If

he gets that far, he will either finish them off if he is able or have one of his allies finish the battle for him. Seemingly shy because of his quietness, it is very

shocking to know that Xantu is extremely cold-hearted (not so much as Taxea and Rarext, however) and takes little to no mercy on his opponents.

Nickname: Xan, but he is rarely ever called by his nickname
