'''Vexen''', the {{nihongo|''Chilly Academic''|いてつく学究|Itetsuku Gakkyū}}, is the [[Nobody]] of [[Even]] and the Rank IV member of the original [[Organization XIII]]. He controls ice and uses it to command storms and blizzards, freezing his opponents solid, while defending himself with his massive shield.

Vexen was the highest ranking member of the Organization inside [[Castle Oblivion]], but ironically he is the first Organization member to be eliminated. He creates the [[Riku Replica]] and uses the Replica to carry out several experiments on [[Riku]] and [[Sora]]. Vexen appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]],'' and in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'' as a playable character in [[Mission Mode]].

After the replica loses twice to Sora and fails to confront him a third time, Vexen is taunted about his replica by Axel and Larxene. However, they are interupted by Marluxia, who deems Vexen's experiment a failure. Vexen is insulted, but when Marluxia makes the threat of reporting Vexen's failure to "[[Xemnas|the Superior]]", Vexen reluctantly agrees to face Sora himself. He meets Sora at the entrance to the 11th floor and states that Sora is in debt to him for reuniting him with Riku. Sora is angered, and the two battle. Having been pulling his punches, Vexen instead gives Sora a world card of [[Twilight Town]], claiming to have delved into Sora's heart and found the memories locked in the other side of it. Vexen tells Sora that if he wants to truly defeat him, then he must enter that world, before fleeing.

Meanwhile, Marluxia, Larxene, and Axel note that Vexen is jeopardizing their plans to overthrow the Organization; the scientist intends to reveal the existence of Roxas as well as Marluxia's plan to rewrite Sora's memories to turn him into his puppet. As a result, Axel is sent by Marluxia and Larxene to assassinate Vexen, not only to prevent Vexen from revealing their plan, but also to gain their trust.

Vexen also has the ability to collect and manipulate Data. This ability allows Vexen to create Replicas, such as the Riku Replica, and his numerous Vexen Replicas. Not much else is known about this ability.  It can be assumed that he uses his shield, Frozen Pride, to absorb attacks, and collect data simultaneously.

In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', Vexen has a Limit Break called [[Diamond Dust (Limit Break)|Diamond Dust]], which causes ice glaciers to protrude from the ground.

Initially appearing as a powerful foe to Sora, Vexen is revealed to be one of the weaker members of Organization XIII alongside [[Demyx]]. This is indicated by the fact that no one in the Organization seems to show Vexen any respect despite his high rank. Marluxia and Larxene seem to frequently poke fun at him with jokes and sneers, with Larxene going as far as to call him a "half-baked good for nothing". Vexen is also easily eliminated by Axel, who fought evenly with Marluxia. In Riku's story, Vexen seems to be below Zexion and Lexaeus in terms of authority as he is the one doing all of the work while the other two hide in the basement and direct him.
