The Star Seeker is the first Keyblade that Sora obtains in Kingdom Hearts II after his original Keyblade, the Kingdom Key. It is given to him by Yen Sid after his new clothes are created by Flora, Fauna and Merryweather, and he is given the ability (by using a drive form) to wield two Keyblades at once.

The Star Seeker is not initially an equipable item, since it is originally Sora's sub-weapon for Valor form. It cannot be equipped as Sora's primary weapon until the Hidden Dragon is obtained (or Hero's Crest if the heroes travel from Twilight Town to Beast's Castle and then to Olympus Coliseum).

Acquisition

The Star Seeker is part of a group of weapons associated with Yen Sid's tower, along with the corresponding staff (the Comet Staff) and shield (The Falling Star). These weapons are decorated with crescent moons and stars, and are the second weapons available to the party.

Star Seeker also make a reference to the worlds in the universe of Kingdom Hearts, since stars refer to the worlds. It is given to Sora early in Kingdom Hearts II to indicate the start of his travels through the worlds. Also, it reinforces that Mickey is in the beginning of his travels in the secret video in Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+.

In Kingdom Hearts: Re:Chain of Memories, the Star Seeker can be obtained in the 13th floor (Castle Oblivion) using a Key to Rewards card - that too, as a Reverse/Rebirth Completion Bonus (or a Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+ completion bonus in the Japanese version of Re:Chain of Memories).

Appearance

The guard appears to be two shooting stars. The blade is blue and decorated with stars, while the end is a crescent moon and star. The key chain design is a crescent moon.

Appearance in Final Mix

In the secret ending movie of Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix, King Mickey is briefly shown, wearing a different outfit than usual and wielding the Star Seeker. The shot is brief, and no context is given, nor an explanation of the shot's relation to the battle that occurs earlier in the video. Some fans have speculated that the shot of Mickey shows him during his apprenticeship to Yen Sid, since the Keyblade he wields is associated with the sorcerer.

In the Jump Festa 2008 trailer of Birth By Sleep, he is seen being trained with Donald and Goofy under Yen Sid. He is hit by a Thunder spell.

Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep

King Mickey is also seen in several screenshots from the upcoming PSP game. This suggests he has not yet acquired his golden Keyblade, and also that King Mickey was one of the first known Keyblade Masters.
