The Empress

The Empress is a deck of Cards that can be wielded by Luxord in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. It can be upgraded to The Empress+.

Design
A card from The Empress deck has an odd, star-like shape. The corners are spikes shaped like the spikes of the Nobody symbol. The top and bottom of the card both sport an arrowhead-shaped protrusion, between two of the corners. The border of the card is thick and black, while the bulk of it is orange. There is a thin, white outline of a star that has a similar design to the top of the Nobody symbol in the center of the card. Each of the tips of this outline are almost completely filled by a white diamond, but they leave a thin orange space to distinguish the diamonds from the outline.

is one of twenty-two cards that make up a deck's  and is numbered III (3).

Gameplay
The Empress's ground combo starts with large versions of the cards protruding from the ground around Luxord, followed by throwing a line of cards forwards then flipping them over, and ends with a wide spray of cards forwards.

The aerial combo consists of Luxord slashing diagonally downwards with a larger version of the card held in his right hand, followed by riding a larger version of one the cards like a surfboard while performing a forward 360° spinning attack with larger versions of the cards held in each hand.
