Template:Enemy The Bandit is an Emblem Heartless that is found in Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Kingdom Hearts V CAST, and Kingdom Hearts coded.

Design

The Bandit's design seems to be derived from the image of the stereotypical "Arabian" thug seen in many media, including Disney's own Aladdin. The Bandit boasts a bright white turban and matching face mask, a purple vest trimmed in gold, purple pants with plum and silver trim that is held in place with a salmon-colored sash, blue curled-toe shoes, and a plum and silver choker, and set of armbands. They also wear lots of gold and silver rings and bracelets, perhaps showing off the spoils they have plundered. Their large gold-hilted swords resemble classic scimitars.

Kingdom Hearts Final Mix Bandits are dressed in yellow and dark reds instead of purple and blue, a color scheme mirrored by their successors in Kingdom Hearts II, the Luna Bandits.

The Bandit's name references the Heartless's resemblance to Arabian thugs. Historically, bandits were outlaws that would commit crimes such as robbery or murder.

Story
