Description
Strength +7 (Lv10: +13)
Magic +5 (Lv10: +8)

"A Keyblade drawn from the heart who burns with a wild, unpredictable flame. While not the strongest, it's easy to wield and has a long reach, while also providing for rapid attack combos."

Formchange(s):
-Dual Discus :: Morphs the Keyblade into a pair of ring-like weapons that can be used for slicing with the curved blades, or as an effective throwing weapon. Due to their dual nature, their attack motions are fluid and lay on the damage quite well. Can be lit on fire to inflict greater damage at the cost of MP.
Shotlock(s):
-Flame Salvo
Ability: Ultima Flame
Fire-element attacks (Fire Raid, Firaga, etc.) have a larger blast radius, and deal 1.25x damage to foes. Does not affect normal Keyblade combos.

So here's another design that some of you have probably been waiting for. Yeah, Lea's getting a new design, too; he is a Guardian of Light after all, and I didn't really like the look of Flame Liberator anyway. The original seemed underdesigned and somewhat hastily put together, which might be understandable given the climax of Dream Drop Distance, but...meh. I only included the single formchange with Lea's as I thought of him as more of a novice when it comes to Keyblade wielding, so it follows that he has fewer weapons to take advantage of. Still, judging by his appearances in KH2 and Chain of Memories, he'd probably still be skilled with the Chakrams...
After drawing all the effects for this, though, I don't want to have to draw fire again for a long time. -_-

-The "Phoenix" motif in Lea's Keyblade has a double meaning: on the surface, it references his close association to the Fire element, but in addition, it symbolizes his habit of always coming back unexpectedly and the difficulty of keeping him pinned down (didn't work for Marluxia in CoM, and didn't work for Xemnas in 3). Lea is always the Wild Card of the group, appearing when you least expect it. The flame wing also provided a fun way of creating the teeth, too.
-My main goal with this Keyblade was combing elements of multiple Axel/Lea-associated Keyblades to showcase both sides of the character. The handguard has the same black & red border as his frisbees from when he was a kid (seen in the Frolic Flame ), and the black supports of the shaft harken back to the Bond of Flame along with the Chakram at the top.
-I wasn't really sure what to use as a Shotlock for the guy (sort of forgot about that part, to be honest) but I figured a basic command like Flame Salvo would work well, while also incorporating the flair (no pun intended) of spinning his dual Chakrams to generate the series of fireballs.
-While the Keyblade is somewhat slender in its shaft, it's also rather long, meaning it has a longer swing to it. Lea makes full use of the swing to show off during fights, but it can also catch a foe off guard.
