After the [[Battle of the 1000 Heartless]], the members meet again to discuss whether Sora can still be controlled, now that he knows the Organization is using him. Xigbar posits that Sora's altruism will ensure that he continues to slay Heartless, and expresses concern that Xaldin's desire to beat Sora into submission will endanger their plans.

Xigbar then travels to [[The Land of Dragons]], where he transforms a dragon into the [[Storm Rider]] Heartless to harvest [[heart]]s for the Organization. Sora runs into a hooded Xigbar at the gates to [[The Emperor]]'s throne room and confuses him with Riku, but Xigbar reveals himself and summons several [[Sniper]]s to distract Sora as he vanishes.

{{Q|These days, they call me Xigbar. But hey, whatever suits you|Xigbar, on his original name}}
Xigbar is laid back and cocky, taking pleasure in taunting his opponents. When not on missions, he occasionally enjoys eavesdropping on his fellow Organization members. In the English version of the series, Xigbar speaks with a stereotypical surfer accent, emphasizing his extremely casual attitude, and habitually uses the phrase "As if." He relies heavily on instinct as well as intelligence, making him adaptable and unpredictable in battle. He is described by Roxas as being difficult to trick.

Despite his high rank, Xigbar is not given high authority like Saïx or Marluxia and is instead sent on missions against Sora. He does, however, maintain a position of importance in the Organization due to his past with Xehanort, and is privy to information about the Organization's leader that few others know. Xigbar has a habit of divulging relatively important information to his enemies through his taunts, though he is typically vague enough that they do not understand his meaning, namely his numerous comments to Sora about Ventus and Roxas. Xigbar does not seem to be intimidated by Xemnas as some other Organization members are, going so far as to spy on him in the Chamber of Repose. Xigbar considers Roxas to be a traitor, like the rest of the Organization.

Unlike the other Organization members, Xigbar does not express fear or remorse while fading into darkness, instead chuckling rather triumphantly and giving Sora a cocky reply to the final question Sora asks him. Given his general knowledge of Xehanort's plans and his subsequent return, Xigbar may have known beforehand that he would be restored.

However, it is revealed that Xigbar's personality is an entire ruse and that he is a vessel of the heart of Luxu, who put on the façade in order to get close to Xehanort and make certain that his plan to enact a second Keyblade War and summon Kingdom Hearts comes to pass, as per the role that was given to him by the Master of Masters.
Ultimately, it's revealed that Xigbar's identity is a ruse and that he actually is the ancient Keyblade Master [[Luxu]], who put on a facade in order to get close to Xehanort to ensure his plan to enact a second Keyblade War came to pass. Though his identity was faked, his laid back and nonchalant personality seems to have been genuine.
