    Five news scans from KINGDOM HEARTS: Birth By Sleep were released and the questions are still being asked. Nomura confirmed that Roxas and Ven are very different, but what if something more happened? Is it possible that Ven and Roxas are the same character? Our member "TheVader74" (who recently worked with me on my KHV fandubs as Xemnas), came up with an amazing theory. The discussion started in our upcoming KH games, when I made a thread earlier, asking other members their take on the situation. As TheVader74 explained his theory, I later added to it. The whole theory is amazing and I think you guys will be interested in the topic. Below you can find the theories that TheVader74 and I made.

    Alright, as I'm updating the main page with those new scans early last week, I've been annoyed about how much Ven looks like Roxas. So, I'm not the only one who thinks that. It's obvious that all of us think that. I mean, Ven has the same exact height, same eyes, same detailed hair color and almost the same clothes as Roxas. Nomura confirmed and said that these two characters are very different, but I don't know. I almost feel that he's just saying that.

    I feel that it all connects. Roxas getting his name from Xemnas was one reason why I was getting this idea in my head. I mean what was his name first? I thought about that and then I wasn't sure. Roxas was born when Sora became a heartless. So it wouldn't make sence. Do we know for sure who the "friend" was? I thought it's Ven, but I wasn't sure because some other members said it was Aqua. It's obvious that we won't see Aqua, Terra and Ven again, right? These characters must have changed during that time period between Birth By Sleep and Kingdom Hearts: I.

    As for Terra, he seems to appear like either Xigbar or Xemnas. Terra seems to be the one that is going after Master Xehanort the most. Seems a little odd? What about Aqua? Apparently she is a honor student and is very caring and trustworthy from the other two. While I translated that, the word "witch" came into play.

    So, what do you think? Anything we can do to put the clues together and add it all up (laughs)? I just thought I would make an interesting thread. I'm interested in hearing what you guys think.

    Someday, this will all seem so obvious, we'll laugh at it.

    Ok Let me think things through. Sora loses his heart, and thus, becomes a Heartless. While this happens, his Body and Soul are transported through the Dark Corridors, and end up in Twilight Town as Roxas. Sora in Hollow Bastion is returned to his human form by Kairi, who returns his heart to him, and thus we get Sora back. However, at this stage, Sora is basically just a heart. No body or soul. He remains in this status until KH2, where he is reunited with Roxas, thus becoming a complete being again.

    Where can Ven come into the equation that would affect the appearance of Roxas and fit in this timeframe. I have a theory.

    We see Ven on Destiny Islands, asking (presumably) Aqua, to "Erase [him]". In this case, he is erased, and is left as just a soul (I'm drawing this theory from TWEWY. Play it and you'll understand what I mean), which would get drawn into the Dark Corridors. This is where it would remain for 10 years. Then Sora's Body and Soul comes along. There is some connection between Sora and Ven that draws them together, thus replacing the soul inside Sora's body with Ven's. Sora's soul would then rejoin Sora with his heart via Kairi. I do not believe that Sora was just a walking heart for a year. Something would have needed to support it.

    This probably has a few loopholes, but whatever, just my shrewd ideas on the matter. However, I was right about Xion, so I'm hoping I have the same run of luck.

    I was thinking along those lines, but you seemed to nail a good theory. It's the only thing that would make sense. That image that I added was on purpose. I knew it was the scene where he asked to be erased. You tied the connections and that's the only way that Ven and Roxas could look so much alike. Roxas and Ven have the whole different personality, but it's so clear that their body is the same. It's just woud make sense when Ven was erased which later became Roxas. The connection would go further than that. Xemnas and Master Xehanort have some kind of connection. We know that Xigbar does, so that "old friend" has to point out to Ven. There were so many reasons why they got Roxas to join the Organization. Roxas is with someone that's from the past, Ven's empty shell?

      I have my own theory too... I think that as a child, Sora saw Ventus and when he was turned into a heartless, he was remembering Ven, and all the memories and pictures of Ven that Sora had, were poured into Roxas, so when he turned into a heartless, another Ven was born. That describes why Roxas is like Ven/Sora, Axel is like Terra/Riku, and Xion is like Aqua/Kairi.

      What I find wierd is that why Riku (after being enshrouded in darkness) didn't turn into a heartless himself and produce a nobody...lol.

      Hmm, that is a really good theory. It makes sense, because Roxas looks nothing like Sora. So Roxas gets his form from Ven's soul, which is inside Sora... As far as I see it, it makes perfect sense.

      Haha, thanks. I've had this theory for a long time, but if I randomly put it in a BBS thread, then it would look random. I waited for an opptertune moment.

      i just have a question,
      how can sora "create" roxas,
      a person who looks NOTHING like him,

      but how is ven tied into this, when ven was born BEFORE kh started?

      ALSO!

      sora wears shorts, roxas wears pants
      sora dresses in black, roxas dresses in white,
      black=heartless, white=nobody
      sora turned into a heartless.
      roxas is a nobody, "created" from sora.
      spark anything at all?

      Wow sounds very logical, exepts for one little thing, it all adds up in my Opinion.

      For me, it would make more sense if Ven's Body and Heart were in the corridor of darkness and that Soras Soul had inhabited Ven's Body and Heart, giving Roxas his own heart and aswell as explain why he looks like Ven. That why Kairi could somehow called back Sora's body giving the Heart a vessel.
      But if i think about it, Sora would've been dead if that were the case, seeing a body and heart with out a soul is dead in the KH universe... or maybe he got a part of Kairi's Soul or something.

      Jesus, Mike!! It was just a spur of the moment theory... I never expected to make the front page with this stuff!! Anyway...

      I can see what you're saying would make sense, however, Ven's Body and Heart existing withour his soul would just mean he would be Dead. I believe that Ansem has already said that a Soul cannot be destroyed, it can only leave the body when it dies. Bodies can be destroyed, and hearts are sent to Kingdom Hearts, so I doubt they could exist in the Dark corridors without being transported. Just BEING in a Dark Corridor erodes a persons heart. However, if a Soul is indestructible, then it could remain as a remnant in the corridors for years... But I still think your theory could hold some water.

      ANYWAY!! Uh, thanks Mike, I guess... I really wasn't expecting this, so yeah... Like I said in the other thread, I was right about Xion when I theorized (roughly, I was about 75% right, all things considered...), so I have a good feeling about this.

      This could actually work because it would be another reason why Sora could wield the keyblade, when Riku was chosen. I know that's because of the door to darkness on the islands and Riku's darkness and all. but it could still back it up.
    10. Ukir

      Yeah that makes sense, if Ven's heart was in there for too long it would of became a heartless or just ended up in Kingdom Hearts I didn't think of that. And seeing, that we know almost nothing about the soul, it leaves us more options to make theories about. But how did Roxas end up with a heart, did the soul of Ven call back its heart back?

      I think Aqua is also connected to Sora because she looks a little like Xion
    12. cstar

      yes but remember that
      Xion was based off of sora's memories of kairi. And in the end Xion looked like sora. So how could she be connected to sora? more like connected to kairi.

      So Ven just waits until a viable host comes along, sees Sora's body becoming a nobody and jumps into it, thus rebirthing himself, yes? Unless 358/2 days proves that can't happen what with every continuities different laws on magic. I haven't played 358/2 days and am waiting to play and am trying not to read about it online, so I have no idea what new rules it states, or if it draws any connection between Roxas and Ven, however subtle. I think I lost track of what I was saying. Meh.

      Hi there, it's been more than a year since my last visit here. I noticed this thread on the homepage and the theory has stimulated my curiosity. So I read and reason along on it, but some points don't convince me at all.

      I think so too. It would be a little too much for Sora continuing living with his Heart only and without Body nor Soul. But I suppose that neither the only Soul could be enough for it. I guess that Sora and Roxas are sharing a part of the same Body and Soul. Sora reborn as a human just at the same time as Roxas was birthing as a Nobody. Due to become a human again Sora takes away a part of his Body and Soul from Roxas who was using them for his own birth. The two boys became respectively a Human and a Nobody at the same instant and through the same Body and Soul.

      Let's also think about what happens at the end of KH2, when Sora and Roxas return the same being: Sora would suppose to have two Souls at that time? I difficulty think so at the moment.

      I'm pretty sure that the influence of Ven with Sora and the Roxas look is connected with something else than the Soul. Maybe the Ven essence exists in anyway within the Sora's Heart? Maybe something more has happened after the scene of a BbS trailer in which Terra (if I well remember) was looking at the young Sora and Riku playing on the beach.

      Ah, sorry for my bad english, I'm Italian :P

      i think that ven was a relitive to sora such as a uncle or maby even a father and some of vens traits went to sora and the rest went to roxas. so thats also a reason why sora got the keyblade ( he inharited it) watta think

      i do know that ven's heart gets corrupted by darkness and the only way to get it back was to give up.so i think he asked to be erased to get his heart back but when his heart came back it had no body to go to so went to sora(im not sure why but i also think this is the reason riku is supposed to be the keyblade master in number one to protect ven's heart)anyway when sora's heart was released so was vens and they both created roxas then sora got his heart back even though roxas still has his heart.He could have kept ven's heart or it may because he met sora.
      its a risky idea so i doubt its right
