Sora (KH:FTS)

A boy chosen by the Keyblade, a mysterious weapon.

Not long ago, Sora journeyed with Donald and Goofy in search of his longtime friend Kairi, who had been spirited away into the darkness.

''In the end, they saved the world of all worlds from the darkness that was closing in. ''

''After that, Sora continued journeying in search of Riku, who was trapped on the other side of the door to darkness. And somewhere along the way, Sora fell into a deep slumber.''

''With a new outfit and strengthened resolve, Sora has set out once more on a search for his friend Riku. ''

                                                                       
 * Although none of the parents of the characters on the Destiny Islands are shown on screen, Sora's mother can be heard calling him for dinner during the calamity in the first game. Also, in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Sora mentions both his mother and father while reminiscing about Naminé, and Riku mentions Sora's father to Terra in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep.
 * Although Square Enix originally wanted Mickey Mouse to be the main protagonist of the Kingdom Hearts series, and Disney wanted Donald Duck as the protagonist, the role was eventually set as Sora, because Tetsuya Nomura wanted a human protagonist. Early on, Sora was designed as a young lion/human hybrid, wielding a chainsaw-like weapon with a lion's head keychain. The merging of Sora's design with elements from Square's proposal is referenced by his original costume, which shares many elements with Mickey's.
 * If Sora successfully completes the "Duel Stance" Reaction Command when fighting Roxas in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, he steals Roxas's Keyblades, making him the first character to wield three Keyblades at once.
 * In Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II, during every cutscene involving a Keyblade, Sora wields the Keyblade the player has equipped. The only cutscenes where this doesn't apply are the scenes when Sora and King Mickey seal away Kingdom Hearts, when Riku temporarily takes the Keyblade from Sora in Hollow Bastion, and before the Battle of 1000 Heartless in which he has the Kingdom Key.
 * Sora's name in Japanese provides a pun. A recurring line in Kingdom Hearts is "There are many worlds, but they share the same sky. One sky, one destiny." As Sora's name means sky in Japanese, this gives the line a double-meaning: the multitude of worlds share the same Sora as he travels among them fighting the Heartless, and through him the worlds share a destiny.
