User:Sorceror Nobody

Ok, first things first. Basically, for anything not immediately specific to KH, you'll find a lot more info on my FFWiki userpage.

I'd be grateful if you're also willing to visit Puzzles Wiki, which I've adopted. If you stay and contribute, I'd be even more grateful!

About me...sort of
← My personal logo

I am Sorceror Nobody (not to be confused with Sorcerer Nobodies). Although I am a Nobody, I am not under Xemnas's control, nor am I affiliated in any way with Organization XIII. I like it that way, since they are all losers. Except Axel of course, and Roxas I guess. Zexion is also pretty cool, mainly because he's a bit mysterious. The jury is out on what I think of Xion, partly because she's a complicated issue, and partly because I have to wait until October to experience the evidence myself...

Anyway, the point is that I am a fan of Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts, with Kingdom Hearts II being one of the stronger candidates for my favourite game ever. I have FFVI, VII, VIII, IX, X, X-2, XII, XII: Revenant Wings, Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates and Tactics A2, as well as The World Ends With You and, of course, KH and KHII. I have played and completed both FF Tactics Advance and KH Chain of Memories, but don't actually have either. I am now (very) eagerly awaiting the release of KH 358/2 Days.

I am also on FFWiki, TWEWY Wiki, YouTube, DeviantArt and FanFiction.net. Feel free to check out my videos, my Deviations (including a couple of my own Keyblade designs) and my fanfiction, which has finally been updated with a second chapter (but I'm still calling hiatus for now unless the third chapter follows fairly soon).

Achievements
Feel free to ignore this section... it's just me talking about what I've managed to do. I'm not even claiming that my acheivements are particularly impressive: there's always going to be someone out there who's done better after all... except for anything where I have the optimum record (maximum score or whatever). All such perfect records are in red text.

Important note about records:

The values listed below are only those that I have existing save file evidence of, and may not therefore be my actual records. Any better record (achieved by me) than that shown here must be from an old (i.e. deleted) save file. Therefore, any record stated below is one which I either still have the save file for, or at least had the save file at the time of writing the record here.

Chain of Memories
Completed both storylines. Completed the Journal and D Report, including all of the Enemy Cards for the Journal - which is quite a bit harder than you might think... well not hard, but takes bloody ages.

Kingdom Hearts II
Proud Mode completed (repeatedly), 100% Journal completion, all characters at level 99, Summon and all Drive Forms at level 7, 100% Gummi Route completion. I have also defeated Sephiroth on one save file without using any items at level 99, and again more recently on another file, defeating him both faster and at a lower level (level 89 to be precise). It is fairly safe to assume that all of my records are on Proud Mode, as only the first of my many save files was Standard Mode.

While I don't tend to go out of my way to beat my own records, on the "endurance"-type ones (like Grandstander and Balloon Bounce) I will keep going as long as I can when doing it. I may not be the sort of person to try to better myself at every opportunity, but I'm also not the sort of person who does the bare minimum when I can go for a massive record.

Incidentally, there are some minigames I will try repeatedly to better myself on, including (for example) Poster Duty. Shaving off (fractionally less than) a second from 00'25"03 to the current record was a major improvement. One second is massive on this scale.

Note: Ranks are only given for the Mission Parameter that is relevant to the Mission Level. However, I have included the other two Parameters in each case because each Mission Level is technically a different challenge even for any single Gummi Route, and therefore the achievement of records is applicable to all three Parameters for all 27 Gummi Missions. Also note that the non-ranked ones are not necessarily my best because unlike with the Mission Parameters, the game doesn't keep a visible list of your high scores on the Non-Mission Parameters, so I have to rely on beating my existing record in order to be told what my new record is.

Incidentally, have you noticed that the Score Parameter almost always ends in a 9? Weird, huh?

Note 2: Missions with a crown next to them are ones that I've flown using a Gummi Ship which has the Crown Gummi attached to it... and have survived to reach the finish line! OH... MY... GOD...!

Trivia
Here is some standard trivia:
 * I invented the term "xagranam", which is an anagram with the letter X added, i.e. the process by which Organization XIII members are named. Of course, "xagranam" is an example of itself, being a xagranam of the word anagram.
 * I have created a few comedic scenes using sprites from Chain of Memories. You can see them here.

The following "trivia" are things that happened to me in any of the three Kingdom Hearts games that were unusual, cool, interesting, amusing, scarily coincidental, just plain weird, etc.

DISCLAIMER: My opinion of the above terms (i.e. interesting/cool/etc.) may differ wildly from yours!


 * On one occasion while playing Kingdom Hearts, after completing the Hercules Cup and acquiring Metal Chocobo, I used the Yellow Trinity to obtain Olympia. When I then equipped Olympia, Sora was holding the Metal Chocobo, but a quick look at the equipment menu confirmed that Olympia was the equipped keychain! Unfortunately, I inadvertently corrected this interesting glitch with no opportunity for further investigation, and have since been unable to reproduce it.


 * At one point, observing the three KH save files on the Load screen, one was at 18:28 play time. Doubling this time gives 36:56, surprisingly close to another of the play times (36:49). That's nothing... doubling 36:49 gives 73:38. The third save file had a play time of... 73:37. This was all purely accidental.

Game Challenges
This is such a popular concept among video gamers, so I thought I'd devise some. Be warned, most of them are outright daft and suggested mostly for the sake of amusement. Still, some of them are feasible, and a couple are actually ones I've done. Each challenge has up to two of the following tags:


 * (SN) Challenge has been completed by me at least once.


 * (IM) Challenge is definitely or most likely impossible.


 * (AB) Challenge is possible but also absurdly difficult.


 * (PL) Challenge is plausible, and could probably be done.


 * (ZZ) Challenge is easy, but time-consuming and boring.

Kingdom Hearts
No Abilities (AB)

Complete the storyline without equipping any of Sora's abilities, except during any time when gameplay cannot progress without it. Shared abilities are permitted through this excepting case.

Defeat Sephiroth without any of Sora's abilities equipped. Shared abilities must also be disabled.

Phantom No Stop (IM)

Defeat Phantom without using Stop magic.

Riku Sucks (ZZ)

Get a Sora vs Riku score of 99/0 on Destiny Islands.

Chain of Memories
I'll let you know if I think of any.

Defeat Sephiroth without any abilities equipped.

Sephiroth No Items (SN) (PL)

Defeat Sephiroth without using any healing items.

Sephiroth No Magic (PL)

Sephiroth No All (AB) (AB)

All three of the above challenges combined.

Lap of Honour (AB) (AB)

Successfully reach the finish on all 27 Gummi Missions using a Gummi Ship which has the Crown Gummi attached. Yeah, so I myself have managed a few, but good luck surviving against the Final Hunter...

Minimal Experience (AB) (AB)

Complete the storyline with minimal exp. This is done by defeating enemies only if they are needed to progress the game.

Theories
Just my personal musing on several as-yet-unknown subjects.

Unbirths
Consider the splitting of one's being.

Random Questions
WARNING! Some questions may be unsuitable for younger readers!

Axel

 * What the hell is he? Roxas and Naminé have emotions, but this may be related to the fact that they aren't "normal" Nobodies. By contrast, Axel is, as far as we know, a "normal" Nobody, so why does he appear to have emotions too?

Xion

 * If Sora could see her, how would she look to him? Like himself, like Kairi, like her "normal" appearance, or something else?
 * If you took a photograph of her, what would it show? Would the photograph look different to different viewers like she does, or would it actually show her "true" appearance, whatever that may be? Or perhaps she would not appear in the photo at all...
 * If Sora and Xion had sex (with her in her "normal" female form, obviously), would it technically be a form of masturbation? :P
