Worlds Fought

Appearance

The Barriermaster is merely a version of the Bookmaster from Kingdom Hearts II and the Runemaster from Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, its hat, clothing-like body, and face colored in various shades of indigo and violet. Its large book bears the Heartless insignia on the front cover, the Heartless having no legs and yellow hands and eyes.

Abilities

The Barriermaster uses its large book as a shield, similar to the defensive methods used by the large-bodied Heartless. It can only be attacked when separated from the book, which is also used as a weapon with magical powers, the Heartless stunned upon this separation.

Trivia
