Donald Duck
Playable
Disney Castle's royal magician and Sora's longtime traveling companion, Donald is searching for a way to restore Sora back to Reality.
Donald Duck serves as Disney Castle's royal magician. Following Mickey's instructions to find the wielder of the key, he and Goofy sought out the Keyblade Traverse Town. It is here, that they met Sora and their goal, the Keyblade. They joined Sora's search for Riku and Kairi.
Donald is quick-tempered but repeatedly risks everything for his friends. At the Keyblade Graveyard in Kingdom Hearts III, he unleashed Zettaflare to stop Terra-Xehanort and collapsed from the effore (possibly died, its vague). Sora's subsequent rescue of his friends gave them another chance to win the war. Donald was there in the final fight against Xehanort and helped deal the final blow. After Sora disappeared, Donald joined the search for him.
In Kingdom Hearts IV, Donald and Goofy investigate the Underworld and approach Hades for information about Sora.
For the first time since 358/2 Days multiplayer mode, Donald is a playable character. It is also revealed he and goofy will be going to various Disney worlds as well.
His gameplay style consists of him using this Staff to cast magic projectiles, Classic Magic using MP, and a command called Combat Style which we don't know anything about yet.
