A word use by fans of the Kingdom Hearts Video game series to describe a character who has been possessed by one of the series' main villains, Xehanort. Its use spread after the trailer Square Enix released for Kingdom Hearts III on June 10th, 2018 at Microsoft's E3 convention. It depicted the character Aqua (A main protagonist in the game Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep)with yellow eyes, suggesting she was possessed by Xehanort.
Kingdom Hearts fan terminology. A word used to describe what happens when a character has been possessed or influenced by the character Xehanort, causing them to develop yellow eyes and/or tanned skin and silver hair, just like Xehanort/Master Xehanort.
The process of Master Xehanort (From the Kingdom hearts series) binding his heart in 13 vessels, to complete the new Organisation 13. In this transformation, the Vessel gains yellow eyes to match Xehanort's eyes.
A tough, straightforward, take-no-prisoners way of carrying oneself. Hard-nosed people may not be sensitive or tactful, but they are gritty and tackle problems head-on.
