When a being, be they good or evil, gives in to the darkness in their heart, their heart is consumed by it and becomes a [[Heartless]]. This new entity separates from the body and soul, which fade into darkness, and begins to act on a primal instinct to gather other hearts and corrupt them. This instinct results in Heartless attacking other beings to increase their numbers, and attacking the heart of a world by means of the [[Keyhole]], causing it to be completely overwhelmed by darkness. Of course, as dictated by their instinct, the Heartless seek out the biggest heart of all; Kingdom Hearts. | When a being, be they good or evil, gives in to the darkness in their heart, their heart is consumed by it and becomes a [[Heartless]].

Likewise, Sora's heart contained so little darkness, his became a small [[Shadow]], though his heart was immensely strong. This let him keep his emotions and memories instead of fading to the darkness.) The Heartless are arranged in a hierarchical society, with the most powerful Heartless directing the others' actions. This theory was proven by [[Xehanort]] whose Heartless went on to control all others. | ||
Emblem Heartless defeated by the Keyblade give up the stolen heart, which causes it to return to the owner's original body. However, in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', the hearts went to [[Organization XIII]], which may mean there is a way to change the flow of hearts. Hearts will also not return to their owner if a Nobody was formed. | Emblem Heartless defeated by the Keyblade give up the stolen heart, which causes it to return to the owner's original body.
