The Kingdom Key
Keyblades are mysterious weapons that are heavily featured in the Kingdom Hearts series. Wielded by players, the Keyblade is a main part of the battle between Darkness and Light.
The Keyblade chooses its master, and knowing this, Yen Sid sent letters searching for whoever could wield the blade to assist in a time of desperation. Though Eraqus pointed out that only a select few could wield it, the wizard reminded him that so long as they have a strong heart, anyone could wield it.
History[]
The origins of the Keyblades is, thus far, unclear. Each game references the special qualities of the wielders and some give vague explanations of the Keyblades' power, but none have shown where the Keyblades originated, how they are created, or what their original purpose might have been. One legend mentioned in Kingdom Hearts states that the Keyblade master saved the world, while another said he wrought chaos and destruction upon it.
Power[]
As the name implies, in combat, Keyblades are used in a manner similar to swords. Despite the fact that most possess no actual cutting edge, Keyblades still make efficient combat weapons, and are shown to be particularly effective weapons against enemies. However, as a downside to this, the Heartless use the Keyblade as a homing beacon, and thus Keyblade wielders are at constant risk of Heartless attacks at any time.
The main power of the Keyblade, however, is the ability to seal or open the barriers between worlds, as well as to "lock" a world's Keyhole, preventing the Heartless from attacking that world's heart. As an offset of this ability, the Keyblade can also be used to lock or unlock any lock, allowing the user to access any sealed interior, whether it be a locked room, gate, or treasure chest. The Keyblade opens and shuts locks by emitting a bright, thin beam of light; this can also be used as an attack against certain enemies, although it is not featured in general game-play.
Players also have the ability to turn their Keyblades into vehicles and use them to travel to other worlds.
