Character Information
Name: Ventus
Canon: Kingdom Hearts
Canon Point: Post Birth by Sleep
Age: 15-16
History: Ventus' Story | Birth By Sleep | Kingdom Hearts
Personality:
This individual is extremely brave, always heading into a dangerous situation even knowing it could be dangerous for the sake of his friends or even strangers he's just met. Ven is loyal to his friends, believes in them with all his heart and will go to the ends of the earth for them. There isn't a single moment of hesitation to what Ven will sacrifice to keep them safe, even if it means losing his own heart and he always has the utmost faith that everything will turn out just fine. It’s not just his friends that he wants to protect but all those around him even if he’s never met them before. While traveling it isn't uncommon to see Ven stop to help someone else out when he can. Even though Ven has his own goal that can easily overshadow the other things in his life there's no way Ven could ever leave his friends to fight alone, and it often gains the loyalty of those who he comes across.
He has an amazing capacity to forgive people if he believes that they truly regret what they did and usually when he forgives someone that tends to be the end of it for him. Ven can also hold a grudge against those who are merely faking regret and if they continue with their plan he will stand against them until the bitter end. While he knows that defeating the bad guys is the only way to stop them he does feel a little bad that it had to come to such a thing in the first place. Of course he is also careful of the fact about coming from another world so while he doesn't ever outright state that he does to anyone, Ven tries to not make it too obvious.
Ven is slightly competitive and it typically shows when in a friendly competition or even when he attempts to beat his own personal best at something. When meeting Lea and challenged to a fight he wasn't all that interested until seriously provoked by the other teen. At that point he'd already been upset by the fact that he wasn't on great terms with his friends and wasn't in the mood for a match but afterwards his mood had improved drastically. In the coliseum, Ven hadn't wanted to compete against Hercules and Zack to earn the place to be trained by Phil but he'd just wanted to participate. Unfortunately there were no spots left in the competition and he was disappointed in that fact. He never gives up even though he fails showing stubbornness and determination in everything he does as he picks himself up and tries again until he gets it just right. When something seems impossible or out-of-reach Ven will face it head-on until he can do it the way he's supposed to.
Sometimes Ven is gullible and oblivious to the things around him, yet he is far from stupid. He may have let Vanitas's words to drive him from home but he was always wary of the strange figure. If it weren't for his overwhelming concern for Terra, he never would have run away from home. No matter how many times he was told by strangers of all of the terrible things Terra had done, Ven never wanted to believe in their words and stood by his faith in his friend. He's capable of learning new things so long as he has a patient teacher (or one willing to teach him in the first place) and he can even pick up various things on his own. Considering the state he was left in after having the darkness pulled from his heart, he's come a long way in a few years having to relearn a lot of things and advancing quickly. Some of that might be due to muscle memory but he doesn't act like someone who's basically had to restart his entire life only a few years ago. Ven lets his heart lead him most of the time and this can often help him figure out who left him stuff as hints to help keep him going to do what he needs to. Or it can lead him into even more trouble.
He is very friendly and out-going and often times he doesn’t let the bad things drag him down as he prefers to be optimist rather than pessimistic. Most people can find him with a smile on his face and it's very easy to get him to laugh or to get him to join in some joyous occasion. Ven can sometimes be described as a big dorky kid who enjoys just hanging out with his friends. This kid has an ambitious dream and that hope of fulfillment it can spread to those around him into believing they can make them possible.
Yet he can be serious if the situation calls for it, easily adapting to whatever the moment needs him to be. While he doesn't have strong leadership skills it's not hard to see Ven in that position and it often draws loyal people who want to follow after him and stand beside him in battle. There may be times when he becomes discouraged and even disheartened but when he realizes that people need someone to be there for them, Ven can easily pull himself together as they are his strength. As he states in the near future, his friends are his strength and he's theirs.
It’s rare but Ven has been known to get angry usually on behalf of some injustice done and it makes him act more irrational than normal. That can lead him into rushing into dangerous situations alone or even confronting an enemy that's way outside his league although Ven doesn't have suicidal tendencies he will sacrifice himself for his friends safety. Usually these outbursts are because someone has hurt his friends as most of the stuff done to him gets waved off as no big deal. One of Ven's main weaknesses and strengths are his friends, they can drive him on towards his goal with a fierce intensity like no other but there isn't anything Ven wouldn't do for them - include giving up his own life if need be.
Nearly everyone is treated the same when Ven first comes across them and he treats them more like a friend even if they have a higher authority, but he does typically call most people sir or ma'am. Ven respects them all for all of their various strengths and skills and will even admit that he would have never gotten where he is without them but that doesn't mean he won't sometimes go against them if he feels that's the right thing to do. There a few he's not instantly friendly with and those are the ones who are known enemies or people who make him wary.
Over the years Ven's grown accustomed to always having someone around - whether it's Terra, Aqua or Eraqus, or people he's met along his travels - he's hardly ever alone so he often turns to them for advice, friendly chats or when rushing into danger expects to have someone back him up. He's the curious type always trying to learn new things about the world he's visiting - people's lives are much more important to him than some rules. Even when Peter Pan offered Ven the chance to go looking for treasure, he was far more interested in looking for the falling star because that seemed more important than any bit of gold or gem. All of Ven's emotions are worn on his face, what you see is what you get - from the happiest of smiles, to the angry glares down to the tears of sadness and of joy.
Abilities:
Keyblade:
Ventus has the ability to summon and wield a weapon known as the Keyblade, basically a sword-like weapon that looks like a key. While it can act like a sword and be used against Unversed, Heartless and Nobodies alike, the Keyblade can seal or open the barriers between worlds. The weapon can also lock and unlock any lock, whether it be from a small treasure chest to locked rooms. The Keyblade has one distinct feature that makes it very picky about who holds it and the wielder must have a strong heart or in a few rare instances someone close to one with a strong heart can wield one. Ven is the quickest of Keyblade wielders of his time (not including those who cheat by teleporting) but actually the swiftest and most agile on his feet - even when in the air. He also tends to throw his Keyblade as if it were a projectile as it spins and then yo-yo's back to his hand. It may be of note to say that Ven actually holds his Keyblade in a backwards grip so that the blade is facing away from him and is the only individual known to do this.
Strengths: Friendly, cheerful, loyal, brave, adventurous
Weaknesses: Recklessly impulsive, a little naive, easily angered/upset, can be manipulated
God/Shinki: Shinki
Why?: Ven is still rather "new" at being a Keyblade wielder, especially in comparison to everyone else around him. He's learning and finding his place and isn't nearly as powerful as those he constantly goes up against. Plus look at all those gods listed under his canon, I wanted to throw one of the good guys under the shinki title.
Cause Of Death: Lost his heart to Sora and body to Vanitas?? idk
Vessel: Keyblade: Wayward Wind style
Name Location: Inside of his left wrist (Hoshiki 星)
Power: Teleportation: Ven will be able to teleport to wherever his god is in an instant so as to be of immediate use to them. He will also be capable of teleporting one other individual if the need should arise such as should a god be unable to do it themselves, but only in the event that the god cannot do it (aka they're unconscious or whatever) or asks him to.

He also tends to throw his Keyblade as if it were a projectile as it spins and then yo-yo's back to his hand. It may be of note to say that Ven actually holds his Keyblade in a backwards grip so that the blade is facing away from him and is the only individual known to do this.
Magic:
Someone who wields a Keyblade can also use magic - from basic things like Fire or Cure to even combining magic with Keyblade skills. While Ven does specialize in wind and light, he adept at fire, ice and lightning as well. He can cause opponents to drift up from the ground as if they're experiencing zero gravity or even draw them in close so he can hit them all with one of his larger attack radiuses. Some spells work on only one opponent while others can be used against a group of them. Ven can also heal wounds in various amounts or even cure someone of poison if necessary (which I will leave up to the other mun's discretion).
A full list of Ven's abilities and magic can be found: Here (for the sake of neatness)
Glider & Armor:
Ven has learned how to transform his Keyblade into a glider that he can ride around on and this is how he gets from world-to-world (note: will not be able to leave Earth). He can fight while riding his glider and it tends to involve spinning the glider so that it's more pointed edges attack enemies, of course this means he has to get up close and personal with his enemies. Since he basically riding around on a fancy flying skateboard, Ven can get knocked off like he was riding around on a regular board - there is nothing magically attaching him to this board though he has the bonus of never truly losing it as it is made up of his Keyblade and he can summon it back to him in it's original form. Another thing he has is armor, typically not used unless he's traveling the Lanes Between the worlds to protect him from the darkness but it can be used in battle and does protect his body. It is a full body suit, including a helmet and is activated by hitting his shoulder guard.
Strengths: Friendly, cheerful, loyal, brave, adventurous
Weaknesses: Recklessly impulsive, a little naive, easily angered/upset, can be manipulated
God/Shinki: Shinki
