Vexen approaches problems like an intellectual, with a hypothesis and a method to test those hypotheses. Appearing very much like a stereotypical "mad scientist", Vexen views life as a grand experiment. More than any other member, save Xemnas, he considers his numerical rank a literal one and often derides members with lower numerical rankings than his, such as when he reminds Marluxia of his superior rank, when Marluxia orders him not to "disappoint us" again, and later Zexion when he laments Vexen's impatience. Vexen is often chastised by others for this behavior. Ironically, Vexen's throne is the lowest of the Organization in their meeting chamber known as Where Nothing Gathers. This is mostly due to his recurring incompetence and preference of not sullying his hands, like Zexion, though the latter can easily hold his own in battle.
Vexen also displays a fear of Xemnas, immediately bowing to Marluxia's demand to destroy Sora when Marluxia threatens to tell Xemnas of the failure of the Riku replica. He also fears approaching Xemnas in the Chamber of Repose, dismissing Zexion's suggestion thereof as a joke. In the Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories manga, Vexen is portrayed as a character who thinks that he doesn't get enough respect from the aboveground members.

birth by sleep
Even, along with the other apprentices of Ansem the Wise, loses his heart in the course of their experiments into the nature of the heart and its darkness. Even's Nobody, Vexen, is born in the aftermath, and he and the Nobodies of the other apprentices become the founding members of Organization XIII.
Vexen serves as the Organization's leading researcher, heading their investigations into memories and creating the Replica Program.
358/2 days
After Roxas is inducted to the Organization, Vexen uses his top-quality Replica, designated "No. i", to copy Roxas's abilities. Xion is introduced to the Organization as Number XIV, and Vexen determines that she should be kept apart from Roxas for ten days, until she proves to be functioning properly. Secret Report
On Day 12, Vexen takes Roxas on a mission to Twilight Town to introduce him to reconnaissance duties. Although he addresses Roxas condescendingly, he informs Roxas of the existence of many worlds and explains the importance of exploring worlds for the Organization.
When Vexen is sent to Castle Oblivion along with Lexaeus, Zexion, Axel, Larxene and Marluxia, he takes the second, inferior Replica along.
chain of memories
When Marluxia and Larxene begin manipulating Sora through Naminé's ability, Vexen, Lexaeus, and Zexion decide to try setting Riku, who has appeared in the castle's basements, to counter Marluxia's plot. Vexen engages Riku in battle, hinting towards the nature of Nobodies and the existence of Xemnas and taunting Riku about his nature as a being between darkness and light. Although he loses, Vexen uses the data he obtains from the fight together with the second Replica. He then has the Riku Replica challenge Riku in battle, during which he uses Riku's full power of darkness, but he is defeated.
Even with the failure, Vexen has other plans for the replica, and goes to Marluxia and Larxene. He offers to use the replica to test Sora, although they insist on changing his memories. They have Naminé manipulate the replica into thinking he is the real Riku and that he made a promise to Naminé, something that Sora also remembers doing. The Riku Replica confronts Sora multiple times, but he is defeated each time.
After the replica loses twice to Sora and fails to confront him a third time, Marluxia deems Vexen's experiment a failure. Vexen is insulted, but when Marluxia makes the threat of reporting Vexen's failure to "the Superior", Vexen reluctantly agrees to face Sora himself. He meets Sora at the entrance to the 11th floor and states that Sora is in debt to him for reuniting him with Riku. Sora is angered, and the two battle. However, as they fight, Vexen delves deep into Sora's heart, and creates a world card forged from Roxas's memories, in the other side of Sora's heart. Vexen tells Sora that if he wants to truly defeat him, then he must enter that world.
Meanwhile, Marluxia, Larxene, and Axel note that Vexen is jeopardizing their plans, for if Sora discovers Roxas's existence, then he will no longer be of any use to them. Marluxia sends Axel to take care of Vexen.
After exploring the memory-Twilight Town, Sora encounters Vexen at the gates to the Old Mansion, where Vexen asks Sora whether the strange familiarity his feels for the town or his memories of Naminé are true. Sora doesn't understand what he means, and Vexen remarks that he is enslaved to his memories, just like "his Riku". Sora is again angered, and battles Vexen once again.
Vexen is again defeated, and seeing that Sora is too dangerous, tries to tell him of Marluxia's plot and, by extension, Roxas's existence. Before he can fully explain, however, he is interrupted by a strike from Axel. Vexen begs to be spared, but Axel tells him he can be "nothing instead of just being nobody" and snaps his fingers, incinerating Vexen. [wiki creds]
Vexen is one of the most prolific Organization members in battles, appearing as an opponent three times during Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. He fights with a large blue shield, which he uses to fend off frontal attacks, making it necessary to attack him from behind. He is also able to use the shield offensively, akin to Goofy, but further enhances the style with the spikes lining the edge of his shield. He can use his cryokinetic abilities to blast his enemy with ice from his hand, and can call forth large chunks of ice from the ground to freeze his opponent solid. He also has the power to create slippery ice patches on the ground, or summon icicles that rise from the ground and follow their target for several seconds. Finally, he can create an unavoidable blizzard that can be resisted only with a card break. In the remake, Vexen can conjure up a sword out of ice and whack his opponent several times with it before performing a final shockwave which destroys the sword and ends the sleight. Like several other members of Organization XIII in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Vexen moves by levitating, sometimes several feet into the air.
In Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, Vexen, as well as other members of the Organization that have already been eliminated, can be fought. Vexen's shield makes him completely invincible in this game, but the shield has an HP bar of its own and can be temporarily destroyed, allowing Sora to attack Vexen directly. Vexen has the additional power in this battle to create a copy of Sora's AntiForm to aid him in battle. Vexen still has his "freeze" attack when a blizzard freezes Sora, immobilizing Sora while Vexen gains data, but it can be stopped by a Reaction Command. He also has the icicle attack from before, but also returns with a new attack when he makes two spinning blades of ice and throws them at Sora. In the data battle against Vexen, he has a new attack when he throws giant chunks of ice at Sora.
Vexen also has the ability to collect and manipulate Data. This ability allows Vexen to create Replicas, such as the Riku Replica, and his numerous Vexen Replicas. Not much else is known about this ability. It can be assumed that he uses his shield, Frozen Pride, to absorb attacks, and collect data simultaneously.
In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Vexen has a Limit Break called Diamond Dust, which causes ice glaciers to protrude from the ground.
Initially appearing as a powerful foe to Sora, Vexen is revealed to be one of the weaker members of Organization XIII alongside Demyx. This is indicated by the fact that no one in the Organization seems to show Vexen any respect despite his high rank. Marluxia and Larxene seem to frequently poke fun at him with jokes and sneers, with Larxene going as far as to call him a "half-baked good for nothing". Vexen is also easily eliminated by Axel, who fought evenly with Marluxia. In Riku's story, Vexen seems to be below Zexion and Lexaeus in terms of authority as he is the one doing all of the work while the other two hide in the basement and direct him.

appearance
Vexen wears the basic Organization uniform of a black coat with like-colored boots and gloves, though the sleeves of Vexen's cloak are a bit longer than normal and partially cover his hands. His cloak is also the longest out of all the members having it almost like a gown that covers his boots. Vexen sports platinum blond hair (which was a somewhat brighter shade of yellow in the Gameboy Advance version of Chain of Memories), worn long with two slightly shorter (but still long) bangs that frame his face. He also has rather large, bright green eyes. [wiki creds]

Weaknesses
His weakness is the samething that actually got him elemnated by axel. Vexen can become so arguent in his intellect that he may in fact revel to much.
