Axel

Axel

Axel, the "Flurry of Dancing Flames", is the eighth member of Organization XIII. His distinguishing features include his spiky red hair, aquamarine eyes, and his twin purple teardrop shaped markings under each eye (one per eye). Axel fights with two red and silver chakramsand the element of fire. When summoning his chakrams, Axel stands with his legs spread apart and his arms out to the sides of him. Very quickly, tendrils of darkness whirl around his palms and up his arms out of which emerges his chakrams. He launches his weapons at his opponent, and for some reason they seem to have a boomerang affect, because they always come back. Generally, he twirls them in his hands, and will also fight holding onto them and thrusting the sharp spikes into his foe. The observant player will notice that Axel occasionally will drop one of his chakrams while fighting Roxas in Twilight Town, muttering an "Ooops!" each time. It is controversial whether his chakrams themselves produce fire or not. Axel can bend fire to his will, as vibrantly displayed when playing as Roxas and exploring the mansion at the edge of Twilight Town. In that scene, Axel was shown creating a ring of fire around himself and Roxas, blocking any escape route, as well as hurl it at an enemy.
