"Tenacious little bugs! Your time is up! Prepare for de-resolution!"

—Sark

Sark, sometimes referred to as Commander Sark (サーク司令官, Sāku Shirei-kan^?), is a command program introduced in Kingdom Hearts, and originally taken from the Disney film Tron. He is a loyal enforcer to the Master Control Program, and sees no need for users. This puts him in conflict with Tron's goals of keeping the system running in service of users.

Story

Kingdom Hearts II

By this time, Sark and his army of digital Heartless have conquered Hollow Bastion OS for the MCP. Upon the MCP arresting three Users abusing the keyboard, Sark is sent to capture them after they are sucked into Space Paranoids. While a squad of Strafer collect Donald and Goofy, Sark appears before Sora and intimidates him into complying by attempting to de-rezz Donald and Goofy. Meeting the MCP, Sark questions why they keep Tron around, as they do not have enough processing power to use a logic probe to search his code for for information on the DTD. They are alerted to Sora's group breaking out of the Pit Cell. Sark appears again at the MCP's hub when the heroes arrive to erase it to save Radiant Garden, where he and a squad of Heartless stand in wait. Defeated, Sark comments he could have made a great team with Tron, who knocks him out. The MCP empowers Sark with his own functions, causing him to grow in size. When the MCP is deleted, Sark fades away with him, due to sharing his functions.

Design

Sark, like Tron, resembles a grey-skinned human male under his grey armor. Like Tron's, his armor is covered with circuity, but his circuitry is red with an orange glow. The circuitry on Sark is also much more complex than Tron's and sports a "V"-shaped symbol in several places. Sark's helmet is attached to his armor and covers every part of his head except his face. His Identity Disk is attached to his upper back.

Personality

Sark is arrogant and ruthless, seeking to derezz Tron for disobeying the MCP. He is loyal to the MCP and his vision of Space Paranoids, in which the system is independent of users.

Origin

Sark originated from the 1982 movie Tron, portrayed by late British actor David Warner. He was the Commander of the MCP's army and overseer of the Game Grid. When Tron, his user Flynn, and another program, Ram, escaped the Game Grid, Sark was ordered to round them up. After a battle between Tron and himself, Tron's Identity Disk cut through Sark's head. The MCP restored him, giving him all his functions to stop Tron. When Flynn defeated the MCP, Sark was derezzed along with him.

 ==Story==
 ===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
-Sark and the Master Control Program are the main antagonists of Space Paranoids. Sark has been made a [[Heartless]] commander by the MCP, empowering him even more. Not much of Sark is heard of after his first appearance, where he begins to derezz [[Donald Duck|Donald]] and [[Goofy]] in front of [[Sora]], and imprisons the three in the [[Pit Cell]]. Not long after their imprisonment, Sark is called up by the MCP and suggests that Tron be derezzed, but the MCP wants to keep [[Tron]] because the latter has access to the password of the D.T.D database.
+By this time, Sark and his army of digital [[Heartless]] have conquered [[Hollow Bastion OS]] for the [[MCP]]. Upon the MCP arresting three Users abusing the keyboard, Sark is sent to capture them after they are sucked into [[Space Paranoids]].

Defeated, Sark comments he could have made a great team with Tron, who knocks him out. The MCP empowers Sark with his own functions, causing him to grow in size. When the MCP is deleted, Sark fades away with him, due to sharing his functions.
-His second appearance is at the boss battle against the MCP. Strangely enough here, despite having met before, Sora cannot remember Sark's name until Tron refreshes him. The normal Sark is fought, along with his Identity Disk. Weakened, he tells Tron that they could have made a great team, but Tron flings his Identity Disk at him and knocks him unconscious, as he is more or less a program, and programs can't be killed, only deleted. Not long after, the MCP revives him and grants all his functions to him, causing him to enlarge. Sora and Tron battle Sark and the MCP, and defeat both by deletion.

His Identity Disk is attached to his upper back.
-==Appearance==
-Sark, like Tron, appears to be a grey-skinned human male under his armor (which is also grey). His armor is similar to Tron's, with minor differences, the most notable being the fact that the circuitry patterns are red and glow orange, as opposed to Tron's blue ones that glow cyan. The circuitry on Sark is also much more complex than Tron's and sports a "V"-shaped symbol in several places. Sark's helmet is attached to his armor and covers every part of his head except his face, unlike Tron's. His Identity Disk is attached to his upper back. Face-wise, he is identical to his writer, Ed Dillinger, also played by David Warner in the movie.
 ==Personality==
-Sark seems arrogant and selfish, as he wants to derezz Tron, who he knows is the stronger program of the two. He does seem to care for Space Paranoids. He is incredibly loyal to the MCP and is referred to the MCP's second-in-command. In the film, Sark is referred to by the MCP as "brutal and needlessly sadistic", something Sark takes great pride in.

-As David Warner was unavailable to reprise his role as Sark (and MCP) due to a previous commitment, both were voiced by Corey Burton.
