| Bio: | Personality: Ansem is the equivalent of the father of the Heartless as he was the one who began research on the darkness within hearts. However, he began this research not out of malice, but because he wished to find a way to protect his own world and the people who lived there from the darkness that threatened to engulf it. Because good things rarely happen to good people in video games, Ansem was eventually betrayed by his assistants and as a result, Ansem lost his name, identity, This exile into the darkness and the betrayal of his assistants made him cold and bitter, hell-bent on revenge for those who had wronged him and taken away everything he held dear. These emotions blinded him and drove him toward his goal, willing to do whatever it took (even if it involved using other people). This is when he is best known as DiZ. Only when he saw the sacrifices other people were making to help their friends did he stop and reflect on his actions and realize what he was doing and begin changing, regretful of his actions and the pain he caused others. By the end of Kingdom Hearts II, we see Ansem for who he is: a kind, considerate man who wanted nothing but peace and security for his people and world and who has become humbled through his actions, ready to accept his fate and apologize to those who wronged him and change things for the better. So taking all the aspects of his life and character, Ansem the Wise is a brilliant minded man formed of sea-salt ice cream and compassion, yet can be very stubborn and set in his beliefs though he is not entirely unreasonable and is willing to discuss things and come to a compromise. He's a humbled character who has realized the mistakes of his past and strives to make amends. However, he should not be seen as a pushover. If prompted, he can be quite vengeful and very cold and calculating. Background: Ansem (the Wise) was the respected ruler of Radian Garden, a very peaceful and beautiful city where everyone lived happily and without fear. A sage and dedicated scientist, Ansem spent much of his free time studying various things here and there, his studies eventually focusing on people, emotions, and hearts. As his studies delved into the darkness that lurked within all hearts, he grew concerned with the state of his city. What if darkness was to overtake it and ruin his peaceful home? With the safety and concern of his people in mind, he began to study the darkness in detail in hopes of finding a way to block it off, his lab assistants and his amnesiac apprentice helping along. Small-scale experiments grew in size as he threw himself into the research, allowing his assistants to urge him along. He built a large laboratory under his castle and used it for his experiments. Over time, his assistants began carrying out their own experiments without his permission and knowledge. When he found out what had happened, Ansem ordered them to stop and destroy all the research. Distraught over everything, Ansem was only brought out of his depression by a meeting with King Mickey and a lengthy discussion over many topics. At Mickey's advice, Ansem returned to the lab and discovered the "Ansem Reports", reports detailing the experiments and published in his name, but written by his apprentice. By this point, all of his apprentices had fallen into darkness and darkness and destruction had spread over his world and to others. His reputation ruined and his beloved home gone, Ansem was exiled. He brewed on things, harboring hatred toward those who had taken everything away from him and his own foolishness for letting them betray him. It was here he cast his name aside and took on a new one: DiZ (Darkness in Zero). While in the darkness, he worked on his own reports, detailing information about Heartless and Nobodies as well as his own changes and observing the activity of Organization XIII. Following them to Castle Oblivion, he met Naminé, who agreed to help him protect Sora as he slept and regained his memories, and King Mickey and Riku. While reunited with his friend, Ansem kept his identity a secret, knowing his goals of revenge would be stopped if they were revealed, even while wishing he could talk with his friend once more. It was here he also gained Riku's help, using him to track down Sora's Nobody (Roxas) in hopes of waking Sora up sooner. However, when he saw Riku's dedication to his best friend and willingness to fall into the Darkness to help Sora, Ansem realized how foolish and selfish he had been and realized his own blind selfishness and obsession with the darkness. He went to The World That Never Was by himself with a device that would digitally seal away Kingdom Hearts and bring an end to everything, but as he worked, the unpredictability of hearts foiled even that plan and overloaded his machine. Acknowledging his foolishness and how blinded he had become, he apologized to everyone he had wronged on his path for revenge and allowed the explosion from his machine take his life, dying in a brilliant flash of light not consumed with sorrow or angry, but hope and happiness. | |||||
