Luxord is also portrayed as a master of rhetoric, with an advanced vocabulary (for example, describing the Grim Reaper Heartless as "'' a veritable maelstrom of avarice''", meaning endlessly greedy, using it to taunt his opponents). Like Xaldin, he also possesses a notable English Received Pronunciation accent in the English translation, furthering his air of sophistication. Another interesting note is that unlike most other members of Organization XIII, who banter with Sora in some fashion before fighting, when Luxord appears to him he calmly smiles and says "'' I'd rather we just skip the formalities ''", and begins the battle right away. This somewhat contrasts his appearance in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' and ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'', where he talks a good deal to Roxas on their missions and other members of the Organization. | Luxord is also portrayed as a master of rhetoric, with an advanced vocabulary (for example, describing the Grim Reaper Heartless as "'' a veritable maelstrom of avarice''", meaning endlessly greedy, using it to taunt his opponents).

Luxord respects those with a talent for games. Upon his second defeat, Luxord acknowledges Sora was a natural-born gambler, granting him a wild card that could "turn the tables" while accepting his offer to play cards again after Luxord is recompleted. | Luxord respects those with a talent for games; complimenting their skill regardless of who wins.

Luxord is highly perceptive, deducing that his order to retrieve a black box did not come from Master Xehanort but rather Xigbar, and that said box likely has to do with his superior’s identity. Though he enjoys gambling, Luxord also talks about winning the “long game”, purposefully losing a bet against Jack Sparrow so that he may accidentally reveal the location of Davy Jones’ heart. These tactics, along with his granting of a wild card to Sora, imply that Luxord has machinations of his own amidst his time in Organization XIII acting as a pawn, similar to Xigbar and his work in the background. | Luxord is highly perceptive, deducing that his order to retrieve a black box did not come from Master Xehanort but rather Xigbar, and that said box likely has to do with his superior’s identity.
