(revert, the same Hollow Bastion text shouldn't be repeated in each Org. article, Xigbar's the only one who stood out in that scene and it looks unoroginal)

[[Xaldin]], the ''Whirlwind Lancer'', is number III in [[Organization XIII]], and a senior member.  He appears in [[Kingdom Hearts II]] as a villain in [[Beast's Castle]], and spends his time in the game attempting to plunge [[Beast]] into despair in the hopes of seperating his [[heart]] from his body.  Xaldin wields six lances and the [[element]] of wind, and is one of only three Organization members whose names start with an "X".

==Appearance at Hollow Bastion==
Not long after arriving in [[Hollow Bastion]] and reuniting with [[Aerith]], [[Leon]] and [[Yuffie]], Sora engaged a number of [[Dusk Nobodies]] in battle around the city.  After being led away from the main town, Sora, [[Goofy]] and [[Donald]] heard voices mocking them, but could find no source for them.  After Sora demands that they show themselves, the remaining Organization members (having lost five members due to deaths and two others due to desertion) materialize, laughing. Though they are hooded, they are recognizable as the Organization from the description given to Sora and his companions by [[Yen Sid]].
The Organization eventually departs to their hideout, where Xaldin is a bit dissapointed that the Keyblade chose a child like Sora. He also puts a halt to Xigbar and Demyx wittless banter by reminding them they are Nobodies much to Luxord's dismay.
==First Attempt==
==First Attempt==
Xaldin first makes his move during Sora's first visit to Beast's Castle. At this time, Xaldin has already drained Beast of much of his hope and kindness by convincing him that [[Belle]] is plotting against him.  Beast is unresponsive to [[Sora]], [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]] when they first greet him, despite having met them before in [[Kingdom Hearts]] at [[Hollow Bastion]].  Xaldin's slippery words cause Beast to lock himself in his chambers and refuse contact with them or Belle.

Sora, fighting his way through the [[Heartless]] that have settled into the castle, eventually reaches Beast's bedroom.  Xaldin tells Beast that Sora and his party are only there to help Belle against Beast, and that she has sent them to steal the rose symbolizing his curse from him with the intention of eventually taking his life.  Beast, still under Xaldin's influence, attacks Sora as Xaldin flees, but Sora is able to bring Beast back to his senses.

When Sora and Beast head downstairs into the ballroom, they encounter the [[Shadow Stalker]] Heartless, which attacks them. After being defeated, it evolves into the large [[Dark Thorn]], but that too is no match for Sora, and is destroyed. Xaldin leaves the area without actually fighting himself, returning to the Organization HQ until after the Hollow Bastion incident and decided to take his revenge on Beast.
