The unnamed Heartless is a massive creature that | The unnamed Heartless is a massive creature that resembles the [[Dark Thorn]]. It has a dark purple and black body with dark magenta spikes running down its back, as well as a "mane" of dark magenta tentacles around its head. Its tail has a dark magenta tip, and the Heartless sports four purple claws on each of its four legs. The most distinctive feature of the unnamed Heartless is its yellow eyes, which occasionally glow red. The Heartless also sports a jagged mouth, blue markings on its face and body, and chains around its forelegs. Its body is rather long and thin and, despite its massive size, the Heartless moves quite quickly. | ||

The Heartless seems to be able to use its eyes to zoom in on the objects it looks at; from its perspective, everything has a very faint red tint. Glowing red veins are present around the sides of the unnamed Heartless's field of vision. The Heartless frequently creates disorienting after-images of itself as it moves, including red, green, and purple versions of itself. | ||

Aqua detects the Heartless's presence, and the [[Master Keeper]] appears in her hand. The unnamed Heartless attacks Aqua from behind, knocking her down, but the young Keyblade Master quickly retaliates with a [[Fire]] spell. This forces the unnamed Heartless to flee back into the shadows; Aqua can only see its glowing red eyes. | ||
Aqua realizes that her attacker is not an [[Unversed]], and like the creatures she has faced in the Realm of Darkness thus far, it is [[Heartless|one of the realm's denizens]]. Aqua engages the unnamed Heartless in battle, emerging victorious after a strenuous showdown. | |||

The unnamed Heartless is a fast, fierce, and unpredictable opponent. In the first phase of the battle, the Heartless attacks from within the darkness, visible only by its glowing red eyes. The boss will attempt to charge at Aqua, and when it does the battle shifts to its point of view, making it hard to dodge. The Heartless also attacks with savage claw swipes and tail spins. The best way to deal damage to the Heartless in this phase of the fight is to patiently wait until just after the scene where it looks at you through its point of view, then quickly use Barrier to block the incoming attack and finally to use Aqua's counter attack to deal damage. The Heartless will then just stand there idly for a few seconds before returning to the sanctity of the shadows, so be sure to get as many Keyblade strikes in as you can. If you have Teleport equipped sometimes Aqua will teleport behind the Heartless instead of blocking its attack with Barrier. However, this does leave the Heartless vulnerable as all of its attacks in this phase are focused on what's in front of him. After dealing around one and a half health bars of damage to the Heartless, it will reveal its true form, starting the next phase of the fight. | The unnamed Heartless is a fast, fierce, and unpredictable opponent.
