The Dandelions (ダンデライオン Danderaion?) are a group of Keyblade wielders representing each of the five Unions. They were chosen because of their aversion to darkness.
History[]
Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover[]
The Master of Masters assigned Ava's role to create a special Union for exceptional Keyblade wielders. These Dandelions would leave the world when the Keyblade War begin, to ensure the light wouldn't expire. Invi unaware of this purpose, accused Ava of hoarding exceptional Keyblade wielders from the other unions for her own.
Kingdom Hearts χ[]
The Dandelions were formed by Ava. She personally chose and selected individuals for the purpose of preserving the light that would face extinction during the coming Keyblade War. They were selected because Ava knew they would not give in to darkness, hatred, or sadness. The Dandelions would be taken from the world before the war, never able to return as the Keyblade War was foreseen to end that world and destroy any light left behind.
Ava knew she would have to face the end of the world, so she asks Ephemer to lead the Dandelions. Skuld and Player are asked to join. Skuld accepts, but Player is more reluctant.
Ava gives a speech to the Dandelions in the Daybreak Town square, telling them of the future Keyblade War. That Keyblade wielders would turn against each other for the stake of their own unions rather than against the darkness. Ava implores them to escape the world to another and that the training she provides will teach them how.
At the newly made Keyblade Graveyard, the player is saved by Ephemer and Skuld who transports them to the new world, away from the destruction of the real world.
Kingdom Hearts Union χ[]
The Master of Masters, whom Ava was an apprentice to, chose five individuals from the Dandelions to replace the Foretellers in the new world and represent the five Unions. Once the Dandelions were taken to the new world, only these five would retain the knowledge of the old world and the Keyblade War. It would be Ava's task to gather them together. Of the five, one would be allowed to have a copy the Master's Book of Prophecies.
The individuals chosen were Ephemer, Skuld, Brain, Lauriam, and Strelitzia. Each one was only aware of themselves having been chosen, but they were to all meet at the Keyblade Graveyard in the new world. Ephemer, Skuld, Brain all arrived around the same time along with Ventus who was tricked into thinking he was a union leader. Lauriam arrived later than the others stating that he was late because of something he had to take care of. Unbeknownst to the Union leaders, Strelitzia had been eliminated by one of the 13 darknesses, who also had taken her Rule Book and altered Ventus' memory into thinking he was one of the Union leaders. Thus Union χ was established.
After making their way to the new world as union leaders inside the clock tower, Ephemer and the others celebrated their status by creating new dream eater spirits called Pets for the other dandelions as a way for them to forget the past.
