Baldr is a character in Kingdom Hearts Dark Road. He is the younger brother of Hoder, a student of Master Odin, and is the main antagonist of Kingdom Hearts Dark Road. After the disappearance of his sister and the other upper classmen during the Mark of Mastery exam, Baldr receives a different task from Master Odin and is not sent together with his classmates to find them. Baldr later reveals his sister, Hoder, was killed trying to protect him from Maleficent when actually they played into the darkness's trap. As his sister didn't protect him from the dragon but the entity itself but the negative emotion and rage from his sister's death allowed him to be possessed by a darkness named Hringhorn. Baldr goes on a rampage, killing many throughout Scala ad Caelum. In his quest to kill 13 lights to feed 13 darknesses, he successfully assassinated all 6 of his sister's classmates, as well as Hermod, Urd, and Vor. In a final battle atop a tower in Scala ad Caelum, Eraqus and Xehanort fight Baldr long enough for Master Odin to appear and restrain him with chains from the No Name Keyblade. Though he makes a last ditch appeal to Xehanort to join him, Baldr is struck with a fatal blow from Xehanort and fades away.
