Riku-Ansem

Riku takes on this form after he failed to capture Roxas under DiZ' request to awaken Sora. He summoned the dark power of Xehanort's Heartless in order to use it against Organization XIII. His first mission after this transformation is to capture Roxas, which he succeeds.

He continues to remain in this form throughout Kingdom Hearts II, and most people believed that he was Xehanort's Heartless until Kairi found out that he was Riku and revealed his identity to everyone.

After Sora and company catch up with Ansem the Wise, he uses the Kingdom Hearts Encoder to attempt to turn Kingdom Hearts into data. This plan backfires, and during the explosion Riku is transformed back into his normal form.

However, it also reduced his power of darkness, as revealed when they attempted to leave the World That Never Was and Riku failed to open a Corridor of Darkness.

It is not known if he ever uses this form again.

What could his true purpose be?

The form Sora's longtime friend Riku chose.
 * Part II - Riku

''Though Xehanort tried to control Riku from within, Riku's heart proved stronger. But the only way to wield darkness fully was to become it.''

''Riku began calling himself "Ansem", perhaps as a sign of resolve. He would live in darkness if that's what it took to wake Sora.''
