Background

Xigbar’s story starts out with him as Braig, one of Ansem’s apprentices. Ansem starts doing experiments on the darkness in human hearts, trying to find out the source of this darkness, however he shuts down the experiments when he feels like they are getting in too deep. His six apprentices however continue the experiments in secret, leading to opening the doors between worlds, and eventually the darkness consumes them to the point where they lose their hearts and become nobodies. Together they found the Organization and try to use Kingdom Hearts to return their lost hearts. Nobodies are mentioned not to have emotions though the opinions on this vary. Some (mostly the good guys) see them as completely emotionless, cold and calculating. Other see them as misguided, feeling some emotions but not quite able to work with them due to their lost hearts. Most of the members of the organization just want their hearts back so they can become normal again. Not completely evil Disney villains; who would have thought.

As mentioned in KHII FM, Xigbar’s primary duty is collecting new members, and it can be assumed that most of the neophytes were found by him. Considering that he can’t remember Marluxia’s name, he probably does not give them their actual, X-included name, leaving that to Xemnas.

In game, Xigbar is encountered three times. The first time Sora encounters him, he is with the remaining members of Organization 13 in Hollow Bastion. The organization leaves Sora with some puzzling words, laughs and they all leave except for Xigbar. Xigbar stays a bit longer, taunting Sora, confusing him by telling him he used to give him that same exact look (referring to Roxas) and then he leaves as well, telling Sora to be a good boy.

The second time Sora encounters Xigbar it is in the Land of Dragons. Sora spots a man in a cloak, who he believes to be Riku. When he catches up with him in the palace however, Xigbar takes off his hood and tells him ‘nope, never heard of him’. This encounter is very brief, considering Xigbar summons a group of Sniper nobodies almost immediately after to keep Sora busy while he sneaks away and summons the big, end level boss for that world.

The last time Xigbar is encountered it is in the World That Never Was. Sora gets overrun by a horde of heartless in The Hall of Empty Melodies, but before he can act, a barrage of red gun arrows from above kills all the heartless without once touching him and his friends. Xigbar appears and tell him he hasn’t been a very good boy, calls him Roxas and Sora and a traitor before he attacks. During the fight, which is one of the hardest in the whole damn game, Xigbar moves around like a jack rabbit on speed, teleporting upside down, right side up, and everything in between, shooting Sora’s ass. Finally when he is defeated, he falls to one knee, and when Sora asks him to explain why he called him Roxas earlier, Xigbar just grins and says ‘wouldn’t you like to know’ and dies. Godspeed, Pirate-ninja-man. Godspeed.

The FM adds a few more scenes.

In the first, the remaining organization members discuss Sora after meeting him in Hollow Bastion. When Demyx confidently says everything will be okay, Xigbar teases him and asks if he will take care of it then, prompting Demyx to shrink back in his chair, saying he’s not really fit for this kind of work.

In another scene, that is set in the past, Xigbar is seen overhearing a conversation between Zexion and Vexen, before nimbly (the man is a frigging cat, I swear) jumping down from his high perch to bug Zexion some more. He is very forward with him, putting his arm around him, teasing him a little, and puzzling him by telling him some of the things he has overheard and theorizing a little about Xenahort’s past.

In yet another new scene, the last surviving members are seen after Axel’s death. Xigbar and Luxord discuss Axel’s actions, calling him a gambler and a cheater because he bet something that didn’t exist (his life) and probably won.

Finally a new game is coming out at the end of this month all about the organization. Not much is known yet, but Xigbar is seen partnering up with Roxas on at least one mission, taking out an enemy in Halloween Town together.

Personality

Xigbar is the most laid back member of the organization. This shows in everything from his posture (he usually stands with his shoulders slightly slumped and when he sits, he tends to lean over to put his elbows on his knees) to his speech (peppered royally with surfer slang, dude!) to the point that despite being a high ranking member, he is not given any overseeing, possibly administrative, duties like Saïx and Marluxia. This could also be due to some (not displayed) ill will between Xemnas and Xigbar, but more likely, the old man just likes the field work more.

Much like Demyx, Axel and Larxene, Xigbar is considered one of the comic relief characters of the game. Like Axel and Larxene, he is generous with the sarcasm, but unlike the two younger members, he never once breaks this persona and is a sarcastic ass to the very end. He takes plenty of joy in taunting Sora whenever he meets him. Like all of the other members of the organization, he sees Sora as a traitor, though he might take it a bit more serious than the rest considering he even mentions it while fighting him.

While Xigbar is highly intelligent (has to be, seeing as he was an apprentice of Ansem and a scientist) he relies more on instinct when it comes to making decisions. This makes him highly unpredictable and a bitch to fight.

Xigbar is not all bad though. From the manga and interviews, it seems he is one of the few members who treats Demyx nicely, going as far as giving him direct orders and writing his mission orders on cue cards just in case he forgets. He was also the one who found most of the neophytes, bringing them to Xemnas to receive their complimentary X and black coat.

Or the other hand, he enjoys eavesdropping on everybody. And ceiling-Xigbar might watch you fap as well.

Powers

Xigbar treats the laws of space and gravity more as a suggestion than an actual law. He appears to be the most proficient member at the whole corridor of darkness thing, with how he can put himself though even only partway without once losing control. He bends space to make the shots of his gun arrows bounce around to hit their target, and he is as comfortable upside down and he is right side up.

Xigbar is also a good gunman. He uses his gun arrows as both as handgun sized guns as well as being able to connect them into a sniper rifle. As seen in one of the cut scenes he is good enough to kill a whole horde of heartless without once hitting Sora, Donald and Goofy who are in the middle of said horde.

Xigbar can also summon sniper nobodies to do his bidding and if you leave him alone (and bored!) long enough he could probably find seven items in the kitchen to make an explosion with. Do not leave him alone long enough.
