Bookmaster
Bookmasters are a fair bit more difficult to deal with than most other magic-using Heartless. They cast their spells quickly and their melee attacks are difficult to avoid. They also have the distinction of being the only type of Heartless capable of casting three types of magic (bested only by Wizards), Fire, Blizzard, and Thunder, meaning any of their HP attacks can potentially Ignite, Freeze, or Jolt the enemy. Conversely, they are immune to Fire, Ice, Thunder, Wind, and Dark damage and the respective status effects. They tend to appear in groups, or flanking other types of Heartless.

Barrier Masters are focused more toward aiding their allies in battles and as a result always appear with at least one other type of Heartless.

Search Ghosts are moderately powerful Heartless that can chain Brave attacks easily. They and Hover Ghosts share the “Ghastly Parasite” attack, which siphons off the target’s HP if it is successful. Their ability to teleport makes them rather hard to target and hit, but they suffer from one fatal flaw, poor defense. Search Ghosts are commonly found in groups that often include Hover Ghosts.

Hover Ghost
Hover Ghosts are moderately powerful Heartless, though they don’t have much defensive capabilities. They can rather difficult to hit, as they have the ability to teleport, a power that also plays a role in their other ability shared only by Search Ghosts. If the “Ghastly Parasite” attack is successful, Hover Ghosts can absorb the opponent’s HP. Hover Ghosts are a bit rarer than Search Ghosts, and have a tendency to appear in groups.

Peanut Gallery
LapisScarab - You accept darkness, yet choose to live in the light. So why is it that you loathe us who teeter on the edge of nothing? We who were turned away by both light and dark - never given a choice? TALK - That may be... however, what other choice might we have had?
Saw that there was a peanut gallery on the boss page so I made one here. How does the Crimson Jazz look? Since the Crimson Jazz never touches the ground, I didn't give it any "ground" attacks. Also, the names of its attacks are all subgenres of Jazz.
VoidCommanderExdeath - The memory's wiles can be cruel. In its silence, we forget. In its obsession, it binds our hearts. TALK - Your existence is worth nothing !
Pretty good.

Wow, it looks like someone has been busy! Ahh, the Dual Blade, AKA the Heartless I use to grind Mission Crowns.

Haha, yeah, sixteen to go I think. I like doing this, thinking up attack names helps me wake my brain up.
Xelias0 - So...it seems your hearts have led you to obliteration. Perhaps it doesn't pay to be too loyal to one's heart. I will have to be sure and remember that. TALK - My name is of no importance.
I used to visit daily this page - but I grew tired because there was nothing changing. Now is just... wow ! Only little detail (sorry, but I'm like that) : Dual Blade's Spiral Drain Complete cannot drain life (as it is a Brave Attack) and I changed its name to Spiral Blade and removed the "drain life" part. The other Spiral Drain is good, though.

Oh, wow. Somehow I got Bravery and HP attacks reversed in my head. [sigh] Well, whatever, I switched them to what I wanted.

(Laughs) You just put Dual Blade's "Spiral Drain" as a Brave Attack doing so, you know... I arranged it. It's perfect like that...

Ah, thanks for that. If I'm counting correctly, seventeen out of twenty-eight of them have been finished so far, so there's only eleven to go. Unfortunately, I have a huge workload to get to tomorrow, so I'll be pretty inactive for about a week at the worst. Hopefully it'll only be a day or two, but I figured I'd give you a heads-up.

Got the Snapper Dog, and the Air Battler and Detonator'll be up in a few minutes. I'd like some feedback on the detail section I put on the Snapper Dog by the way, and if its goodI can do that for the rest of the Heartless.
The Heartless I have almst completely done (save for attack names) are as follows: Deserter, Cymbal Monkey, Large Armor, Hover Ghost, and Barrier Master.
Xelias0 - So...it seems your hearts have led you to obliteration. Perhaps it doesn't pay to be too loyal to one's heart. I will have to be sure and remember that. TALK - My name is of no importance.
More work for you. Look at the Shadow Heartless...

Haha, shouldn't be too much of a problem. Two questions so I can get a bearing on it: 1) It there a maximum percentage? and 2) These percentages are referring to how the elements/statuses effect the Heartless, right? Oh, and The Deserter, Soldier, and Cymbal Monkey should be up tomorrow.
Xelias0 - So...it seems your hearts have led you to obliteration. Perhaps it doesn't pay to be too loyal to one's heart. I will have to be sure and remember that. TALK - My name is of no importance.
Yeah. 100% in "Elements" mean normal damage. 200% is double damage, etc. As for status, it is the rate compared to the "normal" one... 100% meaning normal, 50% meaning more resistance to the status. There is no maximum, although 300% seems powerful enough (Only for things like Fire on an Ice Heartless...) Oh, and I guess you don't mind if I add, something like... fourteen more Heartless...

Haha, bring it on! I'm going to finish up the first round of Heartless before I move onto them of course.

That's the spirit ! Well, good luck... I for myself have only five characters to do out of 25 ! As for your Heartless, they're on my Talk Page, if you haven't noticed...

Yup, I noticed, I've already got them added to my spreadsheet. School again tomorrow, so my contributions may slow until the weekend.

You're not the only one to go to school... I'll have to finish Larxene this evening because of it.

At long last, I've completely finished the first round of Heartless! Even the Angel Star, since I got to the End of the World much faster than I anticipated I would.

Yeah, great ! I'm proud of you... Such great contributions... And I like your style of heartless move-designing. Because yes, there are different styles...
