Wight Knight

The Wight Knight (ワイトナイト) is an Emblem Heartless that is found in Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, and Kingdom Hearts II.

Design
The Wight Knight bears a strong resemblance the mummy character from The Nightmare Before Christmas. Its grayish-blue skinned, almost skeletal figure is wrapped in patches of white gauze bandages; the head is completely covered in them, save for a gap that reveals a bright yellow eye in a shadowed face, and the Knight's "plume", a simple angular-spiraled antenna. Wight Knights also have a "ribcage" of six sharp barbs that surround their chest and Heartless emblem, large hands, and long barbed fingers and toes.

Kingdom Hearts Final Mix Knights have simple, straightforward recolors; gold replaces the white of the bandages, black is the new skin color, and the hands, fingers, and toes are re-tinted a reddish-brown.

Trivia
