Card Soldier Heartless

Furious at the Queen of Hearts for continuing to have such worthless minions in the form of the Card Soldiers, Mirage has decided to ally with Ansem Seeker of Darkness to capture many Card Soldiers, extract their hearts, enfuse them with darkness, and thus transform the darkened hearts into a new kind of Heartless: the Heartless Card Soldier. These new warriors of the Villain League are both fearsome and numerous, as they can multiply their numbers if they are slain with a weapon that is not a keyblade. These Card Soldier Heartless now serve as the bulk of the Queen of Heart's card army, with the original cards being resigned as mere servants around the castle, and the Jabberwocky now serving as Mang's pet despite only pretending to be a dumb animal to hide its true nature as a Darkspawn lord.
