A cherished element throughout the Kingdom Hearts series, hearts possess many unique powers and abilities. It is for this reason that antagonists seek them. Hearts are able to produce emotion, something that members of Organization XIII crave. As revealed in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', hearts are also able to sense the emotions of others from outside worlds if they are strong, as seen when Sora feels Ventus's great sadness after the loss of his heart. As shown with [[Kairi]] and [[Ventus]], if one's body remains intact when the heart is lost, the person will enter a state similar to catatonia until the heart is restored. | A cherished element throughout the Kingdom Hearts series, hearts possess many unique powers and abilities.

Hearts are also able to merge with others or be split, as seen when both [[Master Xehanort]] and [[Master Eraqus]] join hearts with [[Terra]], and when Ventus's heart merges with Sora's. A much later instance of this would be Kairi's heart merging with Sora's during his first journey. They can be split to produce an embodiment of either the light or the darkness, as seen when Master Xehanort produces Vanitas by unlocking the darkness of Ventus's heart. Hearts can also be merged to create unique Keyblades, major examples being the [[χ-blade]] and the [[Keyblade of People's Hearts]]. These Keyblades ultimately grant access to the grandest of hearts: Kingdom Hearts. | Hearts are also able to merge with others or be split, as seen when both [[Master Xehanort]] and [[Master Eraqus]] join hearts with [[Terra]], and when Ventus's heart merges with Sora's.

Merging one's heart with another can also prolong one's lifespan; Master Xehanort theorizes that doing so would grant the user immortality. | ||
The heart also has a heavy influence on all that lives, having the power to produce Heartless and potentially Nobodies at its loss or corruption by darkness. As the heart grants emotion, negative emotions formed when Vanitas and Ventus were split caused the Unversed to spawn, hence their connection to the heart. | The heart also has a heavy influence on all that lives, having the power to produce Heartless and potentially Nobodies at its loss or corruption by darkness.
