Dandelions

The Dandelions (ダンデライオン) are a group of exceptional Keyblade wielders from each Union who possess a certain aversion to darkness.

Kingdom Hearts χ
As per her role, Ava assembled the Dandelions and trained them in a secret location to prepare them for the travel to the world outside when the Keyblade War broke out so that they could ensure the survival of light.

Five individuals were chosen by the Master of Masters to succeed the Foretellers after the Keyblade War; though only one of them would receive a copy of the Book of Prophecies, and they would be the only ones permitted to remember the world the Dandelions left behind. Ephemer was the first to be approached by Ava when his curiosity lead him to seek answers about the world. Ephemer then reached out to Skuld so that she would follow the same path as him and join the Dandelions, with Skuld destined to become one of the new Union leaders. Strelitzia was the final Dandelion to be approached by Ava, but in trying to convince to join the Dandelions, she was eliminated by an unknown individual, who then stole her rulebook and took her place as Union leader. Brain, Ventus, and Lauriam would later gather in the Keyblade Graveyard as the new Union leaders, though it is unclear which of them is the impostor.

With a Union χ instituted, the Dandelions would be allowed to work with one another, regardless which Union they were loyal to, to continue maintaining the balance by collecting Lux.

Continuing to follow Ava's instructions, Ephemer considers what to do about organizing the Shift Pride, which would pit the Dandelions against one another as a competition. Lauriam unintentionally inspires Ephemer to consider an alternative, but before progressing, they hold a vote, with Ephemer, Lauriam, and Brain being in favor of the Shift Pride, while Ventus and Skuld oppose it. Ephemer then reveals his intention to access the data of the Dandelions recorded through their adventures across the worlds rather than having them fight each other personally.

As time went on the Dandelions were given new companions to help them fight against the nightmares despite that however soon other problems began. Upon discovering glitches happening all over Daybreak Town, and through Brain's investigations the Dandelions find out after the Keyblade War they were moved into a data version of the town with no possible way of returning; suggesting this all to have been someone else's plan. And that the glitches are the results of the Darklings as well as new world trying to connect to theirs, while trying to consulting the Book of Prophecies Brain would work on a way to get them out by becoming the virus that overwrites everything.

Meanwhile, Lauriam was looking for his younger sister Strelitzia who had disappeared and after telling the others. Brain and Lauriam deduce that his sister might have got caught up in the war causing her to seek out Player in the first place to have them join the Dandelions. However, feeling that something was wrong and aware of the memo Master Ava gave to Brain, he summons his Chirithy to gather the others. Meeting with Ephemer, Skuld and Ventus, Brain reveals that after having read Ava's memo he realized that Strelitzia was meant to be one of the new Union leaders and receive the book as he wasn't suppose too. Understanding that it was Ava's intentions changed who received the Book of Prophecies, but not the new Union leaders believing that Darkness was pulling the strings.

Reading the memo, the Dandelions discover that Ventus wasn't meant to be one of the Union Leaders. Upon hearing Ventus' encounter with Master Ava, the group discovers that it wasn't her that choose Ven but was manipulated by Darkness as it killed Strelitzia into taking her place.
