Behind the mask

[AxelsVirtue]

Considering the interview in which Nomura stated that Venitas' face would not be revealed untill the end of the game, it seems likely that it would be someone we've already seen. Keep in mind, there is no way to tell his age based only on his body proportions.

At first I could only think of Xeanhort. In which case the mask could possibly be removed by Ansem himself upon finding him unconscies.

But when I saw the recent BBS trailer, the part where Venitas tells Ventus that the existence known as Terra would soon disapear, reminded me of the scene when Xigbar sees Xion with her hood down. The strong feelings of hatred seem to suggest that Venitus may have been Xigbar's somebody.

This is probably very unlikely, but I always got the feeling that Marluxia's somebody would have been an important villain.

I highly doubt it. Xigbar's Somebody has already been confirmed to have been Ansem the Wise's apprentice at the time.

[O a t h keeper]

I believe that Vanitas is a character we've seen before... and haven't seen since Chain of Memories...

The Riku Replica.

(DUN DUN DUN)

And I choose to ignore the fact that Repliku didn't exist yet. -nod-

 

[SunsetSeeker_2.0]

i'd love to read that interview (seriously)
and the Braig theory is suprisingly believable =/
although i'm still mostly convinced that Xehanort is Vanitus, and that (once MX is dead) he steals MX's name and, after that, he steals AtW's name. ^^

i find replicas a useless excuse to make a new character

ooooooooooooooooooooooooh so there is a connection between the 2 V's. this also explains how Ven and MX have a talk in Olympuis Colesium

 

[Doctor Graybles]

I think we should all agree that Xigbar's Somebody is right here (minus the facial scars)

1. I did not know that the name of Xigbar's somebody had already been confirmed.
2. I listed him as one of 3 possabilities. The other 2 being Xeanhort and Marluxia's somebody.
3. Throw myself out the window? Was my idea really that horrible.

It's been confirmed since KH2 came out, it's in the Secret Ansem Reports.
