Bandit

The Bandit is an Emblem Heartless found in Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, and Kingdom Hearts coded.

Design
The Bandit's design seems to be derived from the image of the stereotypical "Arabian" thug seen in many media, including Disney's own Aladdin. The Bandit boasts a bright white turban and matching face mask, a purple vest trimmed in gold, purple pants with plum and silver trim that is held in place with a salmon-colored sash, blue curled-toe shoes, and a plum and silver choker, and set of armbands. They also wear lots of gold and silver rings and bracelets, perhaps showing off the spoils they have plundered. Their large gold-hilted swords resemble classic scimitars.

Kingdom Hearts Final Mix Bandits are dressed in yellow and dark reds instead of purple and blue, a color scheme mirrored by their successors in Kingdom Hearts II, the Luna Bandits.

The Bandit's name references the Heartless's resemblance to Arabian thugs. Historically, bandits were outlaws that would commit crimes such as robbery or murder.

Kingdom Hearts
Jafar summons four Bandits to assist him and Iago in finding Jasmine. When he spots her with Sora, Donald, and Goofy, Sora sends the princess off while he and his party fight off more Bandits.

Later, Aladdin uses the magic lamp from the Cave of Wonders and summons Genie to get rid of a group of Bandits surrounding them both and their new allies.

Kingdom Hearts II
Bandits appear in a short cameo, during the cutscene shown after Sora learns of Jafar being released.

Kingdom Hearts
If timed correctly, Sora can earn Tech Points for blocking the Bandit's attacks.

Kingdom Hearts Mobile
The Bandit appears as a bonus costume in Kingdom Hearts Mobile for clearing Episode 5 of Kingdom Hearts coded.
