The Driller Mole (モールドリル Mōru Doriru, lit. "Mole Drill") is an Emblem Heartless that is found in Kingdom Hearts II and and the January 2021 Excavate Gems event in Kingdom Hearts Union χ.
Design[edit]
A Driller Mole is a very small Heartless that has a large, spherical head that is green on its upper hemisphere and orange on its lower one. Its mouth is jagged and it has a large, brown and tan, conical drill as a "nose". Its eyes are represented by two yellow X's, and it sports jagged, yellow orange horns on the sides of its head. Its body is black and resembles a jar, with the Heartless emblem on its front. Two black wheels are attached to the sides of its body.
In Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, the Driller Mole's drill is brown and pale yellow. Its body becomes orange and the upper half of its head becomes yellow. Its horns, the lower half of its head, and its tires are now red-violet, and its eyes and hubcaps are now green.
The Driller Mole's name refers to its ability to tunnel underground using the drill on its head. A mole is an animal that tunnels and lives underground.
Strategy[edit]
The Driller Mole tends to crawl around underground, where it will either use its Upper Drill attack or peek its face out to look around. It can be easy to dodge, but it is much easier to simply destroy it before it goes below the surface, as it is difficult to track while underground. Look out for moving dust clouds on the ground; if it's under Sora, it's about to attack. Once they're exposed above ground, they're very easy to destroy, but they tend to swarm.
