<!-- RTE::{"spaces":0,"type":"LINE_BREAK"} -->Aqua, alongside Terra, is one of Eraqus's pupils. Like Terra, Aqua also has a dream of becoming a Keyblade master.

'''Aqua''' is one of the main protagonists of ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''. From the view of the story, it is revealed she is one of the [[Keyblade]] Wielders before [[Sora]]. Like [[Terra]] and [[Ventus]], it is her dream to become a [[Keyblade Master]], a dream she is the only of the three to accomplish.

</p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">One day, a suspicious man named <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Master%20Xehanort%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Master%20Xehanort%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BMaster%20Xehanort%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Master_Xehanort" title="Master Xehanort">Master Xehanort</a> arrived and gave Eraqus a new apprentice to work with named Ventus. Terra calls out to Aqua, telling her that a new apprentice had just arrived. While chatting with Ven, Aqua and Terra asked Ven about why he wanted to train to become a Keyblade master, but this question, as well as a few other questions troubled Ven, so much that he couldn't take the pressure. He fainted and shocked Aqua and Terra.
−  
  +
</p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">Eraqus tells Aqua and Terra that the reason Ven fainted was because he lost his memories. Aqua decided to look after Ven, in case he woke up. Many days passed, but despite Ven being unable to awaken, Aqua would not abandon him. One day, Aqua saw Ven open his eyes and regain consciousness.
−
Her name is Latin for "water", while [[Kairi]]'s name in Japanese means "sea". The only connection between the two is that Aqua met Kairi in [[Radiant Garden]] in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' and put a protective spell on her necklace, which later brought Kairi to Destiny Islands. Kairi, by accidentally [[Keyblade Inheritance Ceremony|touching Aqua's Keyblade]] during this time, also inherited the Keyblade from Aqua. The official Japanese website refers to Aqua as the {{nihongo|"Dancing Waters Forming Bonds"|絆繋ぐ舞水|Kizuna Tsunagu Busui}}<!--cite to japanese bbs website-->.
  
  +
</p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">Since that day, she and Ven became close friends and rivals. Days have gone by, and she, Terra, and Ven became close like siblings, sparring with each other, sharing dreams and secrets. Aqua wanted to keep their bond strong, so one night, she surprised Terra and Ven with Good Luck Charms, made by her to commemorate their long lasting friendship.

</p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">The next day, she takes the Mark of Mastery exam along with Terra, and becomes a Keyblade Master, although Terra fails due to his inability to control his darkness.

Before she left, Eraqus wanted to ask Aqua to keep an eye on Terra, to make sure he is alright, and stays safe from the darkness in his heart. If Terra's heart would become too close to the darkness, Eraqus needed Aqua to bring Terra back immediately.

After Aqua tries to tell Ventus that he should go home now, Terra and Aqua begin to argue about Master Eraqus's orders, revealing to Terra that she was sent to watch him. Hurt by this, Terra leaves, and Ventus calls Aqua awful, claiming that she has let her new status as a Keyblade master go to her head. He then leaves to find Terra, as Aqua stays to contemplate.

Aqua's armor and Keyblade were briefly seen in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]''. They reside in the [[Chambers of Repose and Waking|Chamber of Repose]], a room constructed by the Apprentices under [[Radiant Garden]] for an as of yet unknown purpose.

This has piqued the curiosity and suspicion of [[Xigbar]], who often eavesdrops on his conversations, and once shared this story with [[Zexion]], stating that one time he heard "another voice" respond to Xemnas. In [[The World That Never Was]], Sora encounters Xigbar, who mentions "other Keyblade bearers", referring to Terra, Aqua, and Ventus.

Aqua is described by Tetsuya Nomura as being "tricky". A magic-based fighter with agility to boot, she's capable of doing cartwheels while attacking with [[Rainfell|her Keyblade]]. While she's more than capable physically, her prowess lies with a more magic-oriented fighting style, being versed in all forms of it.

She wears an odd silver badge similar to badges also worn by Ven and Terra, though Terra's is gold. On Aqua's arms are white bell-sleeves and tan, fingerless gloves. She also wears a small, segmented piece of armor on each of her upper arms. She wears what appear to be black stockings or socks on her legs which reach to about halfway up her thighs, leaving a small area of bare skin on her upper thighs.

Aqua is second only to Master Xehanort in terms of magic amongst Keyblade Users, displaying superior skill to both Terra and Ven as well as later Keyblade users such as Sora and Riku. She has her own special variations of the Fire, Ice, and Thunder spells, and can cast the Reflect spell indefinitely without tiring, effectively giving Aqua a 360 degree defensive zone. She can also augment her jumping abilities with magic. She is the slowest of the trio, however her slender frame makes her a difficult target. Small petals also appear when she summons her Keyblade.

Aqua's exclusive Keychains generally share a water-theme and are primarily focused on magical strength; in fact, her "Brightcrest" is the most magically-powerful Keyblade form in the game. Her Keyblade and its forms are of medium length, between those of Ventus and Terra.

Aqua starts off with her personal "Rainfell", but after visiting the Destiny Islands, she obtains a more powerful version of it named "Stormfall". However, after falling into the Realm of Darkness, she sacrifices her Keyblade and Keyblade Armor to save Terra, and is forced to use the Master Keeper, which she had retrieved earlier.

==Personality==
  
−
Aqua shows some similarities to [[Kairi]], which she shows by making good luck charms for her friends. She also has a devotion to her friends similar to that of [[Sora]]'s, for she did everything in her power to protect [[Ventus]] from harm and even sacrificed herself to save [[Terra]]. Her personality is serious, kind, strong willed, and responsible, as she is the most reliable of the three.
  
−  
−
She is always worrying about Terra and Ventus, who are two of her closest friends. She has been shown to be blushing and embarrassed when [[Zack]] asks her to a date, shaking her head and arms in an attempt to compose herself. She seems rather modest, as despite becoming a master already, she still referred to herself as a trainee. The only time she referred to herself as "Master Aqua" was toward the end, when she fights [[Terra-Xehanort (Boss)|the possessed Terra]].
  
−  
−
==Appearance==
  
−
Aqua looks slightly like Kairi, but older. She has similar blue eyes, but her hair is blue and shorter. She wears a black and blue, high-collared halter top, two pink, intersecting belts over her chest, and black shorts. She wears an odd silver badge similar to badges also worn by Ven and Terra, though Terra's is gold. On Aqua's arms are white bell-sleeves and tan, fingerless gloves. She also wears a small, segmented piece of armor on each of her upper arms. She wears what appear to be black stockings or socks on her legs which reach to about halfway up her thighs, leaving a small area of bare skin on her upper thighs.
  
−  
−
Aqua also bears two strips of blue cloth that drape over either side of her hips, along with a smaller, white strip of cloth tied around her waist, draped in the same manner. Finally, she wears pointed, armored, silver boots with a sharp "hook" on the outer side of each.
  
−  
−
[[File:ArmorSummon.png|200px|thumb|right|Aqua, Terra, and Ventus summoning their Armor.]]
  
−
By touching the piece of armor hanging on her arm, Aqua will become full clad in her [[Keyblade Armor]]. In ''[[Birth by sleep (Video)|Birth by sleep]]'', Aqua's armor is mostly colored in shades of silver, black, grey and blue. Notable additions include a silver breastplate resembling an upside-down crescent moon and a dark-visored helmet. Her helmet, like Ventus and Terra's, bears two prongs on either side, with her silver ones wrapping around the sides and angling diagonally downwards. Her cape is that of a dusty-rose color.
  
−  
−
In ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', Aqua's armor remains largely unchanged, though she loses her cape and grey becomes a more dominant color than black or blue. She also gains more armor near her upper legs and hips.
  
−  
−
During the development for ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', Aqua's outfit was altered, as [[wikipedia:Tetsuya Nomura|Tetsuya Nomura]] considered her exposed back to be too revealing, ultimately resulting in an outfit that is neither too conservative nor too revealing. As well, her eyes and hair were originally darker.
  
−  
−
Artwork of Aqua from ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep's'' [[:File:BirthBySleep-Artwork.jpg|promotional artwork]] shows her hair spiking near the back of her head and falling just past her neck, as opposed to the spikes being splayed to the side and the back stopping short of the base of her neck.
  
−  
−
==Other appearances==
  
−
While she doesn't appear in the game, in the ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded'' opening Aqua is briefly shown on the Dark Margin during her conversation with Ansem from [[Blank Points]].

Like Terra, Aqua also has a dream of becoming a Keyblade master.

One day, a suspicious man named <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Master%20Xehanort%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Master%20Xehanort%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BMaster%20Xehanort%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Master_Xehanort" title="Master Xehanort">Master Xehanort</a> arrived and gave Eraqus a new apprentice to work with named Ventus. Terra calls out to Aqua, telling her that a new apprentice had just arrived. While chatting with Ven, Aqua and Terra asked Ven about why he wanted to train to become a Keyblade master, but this question, as well as a few other questions troubled Ven, so much that he couldn't take the pressure. He fainted and shocked Aqua and Terra.

Eraqus tells Aqua and Terra that the reason Ven fainted was because he lost his memories. Aqua decided to look after Ven, in case he woke up. Many days passed, but despite Ven being unable to awaken, Aqua would not abandon him. One day, Aqua saw Ven open his eyes and regain consciousness.

Since that day, she and Ven became close friends and rivals. Days have gone by, and she, Terra, and Ven became close like siblings, sparring with each other, sharing dreams and secrets. Aqua wanted to keep their bond strong, so one night, she surprised Terra and Ven with Good Luck Charms, made by her to commemorate their long lasting friendship.

The next day, she takes the Mark of Mastery exam along with Terra, and becomes a Keyblade Master, although Terra fails due to his inability to control his darkness. After Terra and Ventus left, Aqua was the last apprentice to be sent by <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Master%20Eraqus%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Master%20Eraqus%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BMaster%20Eraqus%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Master_Eraqus" title="Master Eraqus">Master Eraqus</a> to bring Ventus back to the <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Land%20of%20Departure%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Land%20of%20Departure%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BLand%20of%20Departure%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Land_of_Departure" title="Land of Departure">Land of Departure</a>. Before she left, Eraqus wanted to ask Aqua to keep an eye on Terra, to make sure he is alright, and stays safe from the darkness in his heart. If Terra's heart would become too close to the darkness, Eraqus needed Aqua to bring Terra back immediately.

Aqua, Ven, and Terra come across many Disney characters along the way and fight of hordes of <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Unversed%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Unversed%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BUnversed%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Unversed" title="Unversed">Unversed</a>.

They protect her from a group of Unversed and in return Kairi gives Aqua flowers, which becomes the Keyblade, <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Destiny%27s%20Embrace%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Destiny%27s%20Embrace%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BDestiny%27s%20Embrace%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Destiny%27s_Embrace" title="Destiny's Embrace">Destiny's Embrace</a>. She also places a protective charm on Kairi to help her in the future. Aqua believes that their meeting may not have been a coincidence.

Aqua later meets up with Terra and Ventus, but the reunion is short-lived as they team up to battle a massive Unversed. They manage to defeat it, but things take a turn for the worse. After Aqua tries to tell Ventus that he should go home now, Terra and Aqua begin to argue about Master Eraqus's orders, revealing to Terra that she was sent to watch him. Hurt by this, Terra leaves, and Ventus calls Aqua awful, claiming that she has let her new status as a Keyblade master go to her head. He then leaves to find Terra, as Aqua stays to contemplate.

After meeting Merlin at his house, Aqua goes to the town square and encounters the enigmatic Vanitas, who taunts her by inquiring about Ventus and if he has gotten stronger. When Aqua asks what he means, Vanitas attacks, and the pair fight a vicious battle. Aqua emerges victorious, but Vanitas simply leaves via Corridor of Darkness, making an ambiguous comment about her being his backup plan. Aqua then resolves to stop Vanitas to protect Ventus and Terra. Ventus then appears, asking to go with Aqua. But Aqua tells him to go home and departs.

While in Neverland, Aqua encounters <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Peter%20Pan%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Peter%20Pan%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BPeter%20Pan%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Peter_Pan" title="Peter Pan">Peter Pan</a> and the <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Lost%20Boys%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Lost%20Boys%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BLost%20Boys%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Lost_Boys" title="Lost Boys">Lost Boys</a>, joining them on their treasure hunt. They later find their treasure chest, filled with wooden swords and Ventus's wooden Keyblade. Peter Pan tells Aqua that Ventus left the toy there as he no longer needed it. Aqua then senses someone nearby and goes off to investigate. She then encounters Vanitas again, this time with Ventus's cherished Wooden Keyblade. The dark enigma cruelly mocks Aqua's actions and snaps the toy weapon in two. Greatly enraged by this, Aqua battles and defeats him again, but is exhausted by the fight and passes out. While unconscious, she reminisces about the last starry night she spent with Terra and Ventus at the Land of Departure. She soon recovers and departs soon after.

At one point Aqua and Terra come to <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Destiny%20Islands%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Destiny%20Islands%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BDestiny%20Islands%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Destiny_Islands" title="Destiny Islands">Destiny Islands</a> and meet two young boys by the name of Sora and <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Riku%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Riku%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BRiku%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Riku" title="Riku">Riku</a>.

Aqua later encounters an unconscious Mickey drifting in space and takes him to the <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Mysterious%20Tower%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Mysterious%20Tower%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BMysterious%20Tower%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Mysterious_Tower" title="Mysterious Tower">Mysterious Tower</a>, where she hears of Eraqus's death from <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Yen%20Sid%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Yen%20Sid%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BYen%20Sid%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Yen_Sid" title="Yen Sid">Yen Sid</a> and heads to the <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Keyblade%20Graveyard%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Keyblade%20Graveyard%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BKeyblade%20Graveyard%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Keyblade_Graveyard" title="Keyblade Graveyard">Keyblade Graveyard</a> to meet up with Terra and Ven.

Failing to bring Terra back to his senses, Aqua fights and defeats Xehanort; subsequently, Xehanort stabs himself in the chest with his own Keyblade in an attempt to lock Terra out as a horrified Aqua looks on. As Terra-Xehanort falls through a portal into the Realm of Darkness, Aqua dives in after him, but quickly realizes that she will be unable to save them both.

Instead, Aqua sacrifices her armor and Keyblade to save the dark being that had once been her dear friend, sending him back into the Realm of Light while she remains behind. Now stuck in the Realm of Darkness, Aqua is attacked by <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22several%20giant%20Heartless%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Darkside%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Afalse%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BDarkside%7Cseveral%20giant%20Heartless%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Darkside" title="Darkside">several giant Heartless</a> and decides to just allow them to destroy her, but is saved by Terra and Ventus's Keyblades. She is then reminded of the people she's connected to. With renewed trust in her friends, Aqua continues on.

As she travels she sees a large circle of light form above her, only for a powerful column of darkness to shoot out of it in front of her. Seemingly unshaken by this she presses forwards and encounters several Pureblood <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Heartless%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Heartless%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BHeartless%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Heartless" title="Heartless">Heartless</a>, namely <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Shadows%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Shadows%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BShadows%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Shadows" title="Shadows" class="mw-redirect">Shadows</a>, <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Neoshadow%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Neoshadow%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BNeoshadow%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Neoshadow" title="Neoshadow">Neoshadows</a>, and <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Darkball%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Darkball%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BDarkball%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Darkball" title="Darkball">Darkballs</a>.

After traveling deeper into the Realm of Darkness Aqua senses something stalking her, and comes fact to face with a large <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Heartless%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Hunter%20of%20the%20Dark%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Afalse%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BHunter%20of%20the%20Dark%7CHeartless%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Hunter_of_the_Dark" title="Hunter of the Dark">Heartless</a> that attacks her. To prevent it from attacking her she uses a Fire spell, only for it to leap over her. Getting a closer look at it, Aqua determines it is not an Unversed and takes a battle stance to fight it.

After defeating the Heartless, Aqua continues walking, eventually coming out in a clearing and looking up. Surprised she recognizes the <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Castle%20of%20Dreams%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Castle%20of%20Dreams%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BCastle%20of%20Dreams%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Castle_of_Dreams" title="Castle of Dreams">Castle of Dreams</a> surrounded by clouds of darkness.

She can also augment her jumping abilities with magic. She is the slowest of the trio, however her slender frame makes her a difficult target. Small petals also appear when she summons her Keyblade.

Her Keyblade and its forms are of medium length, between those of Ventus and Terra.

Aqua starts off with her personal "Rainfell", but after visiting the Destiny Islands, she obtains a more powerful version of it named "Stormfall". However, after falling into the Realm of Darkness, she sacrifices her Keyblade and Keyblade Armor to save Terra, and is forced to use the Master Keeper, which she had retrieved earlier.

She has been shown to be blushing and embarrassed when <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Zack%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Zack%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BZack%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Zack" title="Zack">Zack</a> asks her to a date, shaking her head and arms in an attempt to compose herself.

Appearance

Aqua looks slightly like Kairi, but older. She has similar blue eyes, but her hair is blue and shorter. She wears a black and blue, high-collared halter top, two pink, intersecting belts over her chest, and black shorts. She wears an odd silver badge similar to badges also worn by Ven and Terra, though Terra's is gold. On Aqua's arms are white bell-sleeves and tan, fingerless gloves. She also wears a small, segmented piece of armor on each of her upper arms. She wears what appear to be black stockings or socks on her legs which reach to about halfway up her thighs, leaving a small area of bare skin on her upper thighs.

Aqua also bears two strips of blue cloth that drape over either side of her hips, along with a smaller, white strip of cloth tied around her waist, draped in the same manner. Finally, she wears pointed, armored, silver boots with a sharp "hook" on the outer side of each.

Notable additions include a silver breastplate resembling an upside-down crescent moon and a dark-visored helmet. Her helmet, like Ventus and Terra's, bears two prongs on either side, with her silver ones wrapping around the sides and angling diagonally downwards. Her cape is that of a dusty-rose color.

In Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Aqua's armor remains largely unchanged, though she loses her cape and grey becomes a more dominant color than black or blue. She also gains more armor near her upper legs and hips.

During the development for Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Aqua's outfit was altered, as <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Tetsuya%20Nomura%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22wikipedia%3ATetsuya%20Nomura%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Afalse%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5Bwikipedia%3ATetsuya%20Nomura%7CTetsuya%20Nomura%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetsuya_Nomura" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:Tetsuya Nomura">Tetsuya Nomura</a> considered her exposed back to be too revealing, ultimately resulting in an outfit that is neither too conservative nor too revealing. As well, her eyes and hair were originally darker.

Other appearances

While she doesn't appear in the game, in the Kingdom Hearts Re:coded opening Aqua is briefly shown on the Dark Margin during her conversation with Ansem from <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Blank%20Points%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Blank%20Points%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BBlank%20Points%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1346-6254352674f371e025b43c" href="/wiki/Blank_Points" title="Blank Points">Blank Points</a>.
