While he explores it, Zexion reappears, and continues to play on his guilt, telling him Sora will always oppose him as a host of the dark. Zexion vanishes and Riku winds up facing a [[Darkside]] [[Heartless]]. After he defeats it, Zexion disguises himself as Sora and accuses Riku of being corrupt. He envelops Riku in [[light]], rendering him unable to do anything. Instead of drowning Riku into helplessness, however, the predicament causes [[Naminé]] to come to his aid, in the guise of [[Kairi]], telling him that he should stop rejecting the darkness within his heart, and instead tells him to draw on that power to free himself of the oppressing light and strike out. Riku strikes out at Zexion, whose disguise falters. Zexion is astounded by Riku's ability to control the darkness, and is also enraged at his perseverance. He decides to engage Riku in combat himself, but is eventually defeated. | While he explores it, Zexion reappears, and continues to play on his guilt, telling him Sora will always oppose him as a host of the dark.

Zexion hastily retreats from Riku to the Organization's meeting room, where Axel and the Riku Replica are waiting. In a panic, Zexion initially mistakes the Replica for the real Riku, but feels reassured when he recognizes him as the Organization's Replica. However, Axel tempts the Replica by claiming that he can become whole by claiming power that the real Riku lacks, and suggests he should start by eliminating Zexion and stealing his power. Zexion is horrified by Axel's suggestion, but before he can do anything, the replica eliminates Zexion and takes his power; judging by Axel's line of Zexion finding out "way too much", Axel having purposefully set this up in order to move Saïx up within the ranks of the Organization. | Zexion hastily retreats from Riku to the Organization's meeting room, where Axel and the Riku Replica are waiting.

On his left side, his bangs, though still rather long, are shorter than the right side, partially covering his ear. A few strands of hair fall over the exposed section of his face. The back of Zexion's hair is a bit shorter than the front. He wears the signature black Organization cloak, boots, and gloves, though his cloak's sleeves are slightly bell-shaped. As one of the youngest members of the Organization, his stature is shorter compared to the other members, though he is taller than Roxas. | ||

Like Riku, Zexion has the ability to identify the "scents" of others with great accuracy and at great distances. The "scent" he smells may be based off other things than mere odor, and is affected by presence of [[darkness]] in the [[heart]], an entity's power in the castle, and other factors. Initially, Zexion was never seen in combat, and his weapon and attribute were a mystery. In an effort to keep Zexion's weapon unknown, his gravestone in the [[The World That Never Was]] laid destroyed, as all the gravestones depicted the member's weapon of choice. ''Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories'' and ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'' revealed his weapon as the Lexicon. Zexion can use his Lexicon to mimic the attacks of his enemies in ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories''. | |||

Xaldin = {{ff|Dragoon}}, Luxord = {{ff|Gambler}}, etc.). In Zexion's case, his abilities mirror those of a {{ff|Blue Mage}}, who can learn and mimic enemy attacks, or possibly a {{ff|Mime}} who can perfectly imitate the most recently used ability. | ||

In ''Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories'', he has a unique fighting style; he steals and hoards his foe's cards until he has enough to use it in his own deck. He has copies of his lexicon float around and attack the opponent.

He has copies of his lexicon float around and attack the opponent. His standard attack steals Riku's attack cards, and his standard sleight creates a tornado of dark energy that drags Riku in, and then damages him while stealing his cards. When Zexion hoards enough cards, he copies the Soul Eater and copies himself, gaining the uses of two new sleights. In one, Zexion's copies vanish while Zexion grabs Riku and continuously damages him. Zexion's other new sleight is a sleight in which he and his copies vanish and then reappear near the perimeter of the island and each fire an energy beam. The beams meet and slowly form a ball of energy as Zexion and his clones rotate around the island before the energy ball explodes over the entire island. | ||
His standard attack now becomes a combo with each of the copies slashing once in turn. Meanwhile, the lexicons are spread out through the island encased in blue flames. Each of these lexicons | His standard attack now becomes a combo with each of the copies slashing once in turn. Meanwhile, the lexicons are spread out through the island encased in blue flames. Each of these lexicons support and act as the health of a clone. Destroying a lexicon causes a clone to disappear, and the destruction of the last copy frees all the stolen cards, and Zexion reverts to attacking with his lexicons until he hoards enough cards again. However, even if Riku manages to steal his cards back, Zexion occasionally prepares a countermeasure of sorts by planting a dummy Soul Eater card amongst the scattered pile for Riku to collect. The card is distinguished by the "wing" of the blade's design being orange instead of red, as well as the Soul Eater facing the opposite direction. If the card is collected then used, it damages and stuns Riku momentarily, giving Zexion an opening to steal cards again. | ||

Zexion's fighting style is totally different in the islands, however—his Absent Silhouette's only attack is to ensnare his prey in his lexicon. However, once they have been captured, Zexion transports them to another dimension where lexicons float around, being conducted by Zexion, who can hide as a lexicon himself. Only the reaction command, Dispel, used on Zexion after depleting his fake HP frees them from the dimension. Meanwhile, they are either bombarded by lexicon copies and explosions, ensnared in life-draining lexicons, or have their commands mixed up. However, if the right commands are selected, HP, MP, Munny balls, or experience points can appear, while another command temporarily removes all the decoy lexicons. | ||
His greatest attack involves transporting his quarry into yet another dimension, one which is pitch black save for three spotlights, one of which will be blue. The blue light will rotate between the three lights thirteen times until it comes to a complete stop, after which the entire area will be bombarded by meteors, with Zexion's laughing heard. However, the spotlight where the blue light stops will be protected by a barrier. Zexion is also forced into the barricaded area, leaving him vulnerable to attack. | His greatest attack involves transporting his quarry into yet another dimension, one which is pitch black save for three spotlights, one of which will be blue.

Zexion uses a book called a '''Lexicon''', the Greek term for a dictionary. Its main form is named the [[Book of Retribution]]. It is unclear exactly what the pages contain, but from what can be seen, it tells some sort of story and lacks a basic dictionary layout. The cover displays three interconnected Nobody symbols. The back bears the outline of another Nobody logo. The spine of the book displays the Roman numeral of six (VI), along with the title "Hallucination—Another Side", superimposed over yet another Nobody symbol. Zexion has the power to trap people within the pages themselves, sending them to a different dimension where he can hide from them and attack. He can also hide himself in the pages. | Zexion uses a book called a '''Lexicon''', the Greek term for a dictionary. Its main form is named the [[Book of Retribution]].
