Xemnas wields the power of "nothingness", which takes the form of non-elemental energy. In addition to expelling this energy in various forms, such as barriers and electricity-like arcs, he channels this energy into his weapons, red blades of energy called Ethereal Blades. He commands the [[Sorcerer]] Nobodies. Xemnas, as the Superior, is the founder of Organization XIII and has dominion over all other Nobodies. He is also the original Organization's most powerful member. | Xemnas wields the power of "nothingness", which takes the form of non-elemental energy.

After all but himself, Ansem, Young Xehanort, and Master Xehanort have been defeated, Xemnas teams up with his Heartless and younger self to help forge the χ-blade. Upon his defeat, Xemnas, lamenting his defeat, admits to Sora that he feels loneliness from the emptiness where his comrades once stood and declares that as why he thinks a heart is nothing but pain. When Sora assures him that pain is part of being human, Xemnas smiles at the boy, saying it must take incredible strength of will to bear such pain before he fades away. | After all but himself, Ansem, Young Xehanort, and Master Xehanort have been defeated, Xemnas teams up with his Heartless and younger self to help forge the χ-blade.
