Very nice! Thank you very much! I guess essence bottles don't work on heartless type lifeforms. But then again, since most heartless can change shape an essence bottle.wouldn't be needed. Excellent work on drawing this sequence.

Yup! Heartless are very versatile with that power of theirs. But it's mostly the purebloods that can do that. Thank you again for submitting this art today. I look forward to seeing the next art.

Based on recent gameplay of the new engine and how difficult the pureblood heartless has been lately (Demon Tide and Dark Hide coming to mind) I can see her being very tricky in battle.
I'm trying to think in video game battle terms how she might be with these two forms.
Be warned keyblade wielders: it's a pureblood heartless NOT a emblem Heartless so the danger can either be "Shadow" easy or "Demon Tide" hard if you are not prepared with knowledge and skill.
One would find that in her humanoid form it is impossible to damage. It has two bars: one representing magic contained within her and other other the normal life bars of hers.
A powerful pureblood heartless, it has been well documented by a unknown keyblade warrior (Aqua) on how to defeat her if one finds the lost documents scattered on different worlds. These documents can be found on different worlds as the heartless unknowingly dragged them to different worlds when popping out of 'Corridors of Darkness' which the heartless use to move between worlds from the worlds of darkness.
Magic attacks cannot damage it's life bar and will suck the magic inside herself. The magic she sucks in can build up her magic bar plus also she naturally she is able to build up magic herself.
For her to gain this humanoid form this creature has to have at least 25% magic filling her magic bar. It' has all damage immunity while in her humanoid form and attacks with powerful magic that it can exhausted from itself or weak but combo making 3 swiping attacks and high agility movements.
Starting the battle with 25% magic bar filled the keyblade user can't hurt her. The keyblade wielder cannot suck magic out of her...but can overtax her magic bar if it goes beyond 100% making her explode with magic and resulting her magic bar down to 0%. Thus attacking her humanoid form with only magic faster than she can let that magic out as attacks against the keyblade wielder is a goal. This can be difficult to do and dangerous as the higher the magic bar is the more powerful the magical attacks can be from the heartless. However one can 'cork' her magical exhaust port for a small time if the heartless tries to move in with a swiping attack if the wielder is close enough and 'goated' the heartless with one ineffective keyblade attack. If the wielder must: successfully blocks all the combo swipes, actives the quick time event during that small opening after the last combo swiped blocked, and takes proper 'actions' during the quick time event will result in 'corking' the heartless for a few seconds. The higher the magic bar is filled the less mobile the heartless will be in its humanoid form as it's body alters and begins to grow in certain areas forming a hourglass body. Once beyond 100% magic bar she will panic, expand into a plump figure, and begin to crack as she is about to blow from the magical pressure. The wielder must move away from the heartless or else get badly hurt and get blasted away from the heartless from the magical explosion.
At 0-24% magic bar it will be in it's tiny form and now physical attacks from the keyblade can hurt her life bar and ultimately destroy her. She will try to teleport or run away while naturally recharging her magic bar back to 25% and regain her invulnerable humanoid form.

Nice! It's so cool that you made your own battle guide description for this art. I'm happy that you enjoyed the art. Chomp does such excellent work.

Maybe they will be like the new Mushroom Heartless but more deadly and start appearing after 2/3 of the game has been played. The one above sticks around but various colored ones are different and can escape but in beating these extra rewards are granted.
Randomly showing up and based on her color different methods of her attacks and defeating her can apply (plus like the mushroom once in her small state will run around till she teleports herself away from the field)
For the one you described a pink colored one that has more of an appearance of a heartless succubus or vampire (but these are 'emblem heartless' varieties allowing different colors and types but less HP than the pureblood ones they are based on).
Vampire if successfully attacks will drain the wielders lifebar while gaining more for their own.
Succubus shooting out heart magic that if hit will lose a bit of health and magic and make the character attack allies for a short time instead being controlled.
Added bonus is that female versions of these heartless can affect male characters only while male versions can affect female characters only (image if Kaire and other female characters become a playable character or partners).
If beaten they might drop a 'love potion number #9' and can be used on other heartless that has a classified gender affecting them to a "stunned with love effect" (hearts in the eyes and in a daze not attacking)
Can't be used on bosses.

Persuading one for a long term might be difficult. The heartless act on instinct and are mindless and mostly emotionless. Beings that were once not heartless that has become heartless usually lose memories/mind, soul, and body being only heart but the dark part of the being's heart only taken form as a heartless with the light subdued within. The darker the being was before becoming a heartless the more powerful the new heartless can be. They act only for their own gain and self preservation. Beings with a strong will and aligned with darkness can ally and lead the Heartless. Such beings controlling the heartless however are in danger of being attack by the heartless drawn to the darkness of their hearts and if their will slips they will lose control of the heartless.
Thus heartless are creatures from the realm of darkness. Creatures of instinct and mindless gluttony of hearts attracted to other's darkness and desire to consume light. Particularly the light of all worlds. Responding to command by beings of very strong wills.
Strong will and benefit usually are the real persuasions for heartless species. Rare for memories and emtions to remain and possibly to be fleeting if retained in time. Perhaps a new subspecies created by Xehanort's experiments involving emtions, mind, soul, plus the Heartless (but not body) that can be preceded and given light to make moral choices towards the good side. A new species creature that starts out like a heartless but gaining light and empower that light inside by good actions plus retaining some mind to make choices, communication, and form memories empowering/corrupting the neutral soul towards one side or the other.
Sora due to self creating himself to be a heartless in KH1 allowed him to retain memories (but he states they were fleeting from him per second as a heartless). Sora's Heartless was a weak Shadow due to having little darkness in his heart. However Sora's heartless is THE Big Bad of Kingdom Heart Coded/Recoded game that an data version created from the journal entry Jimmy made about the event almost gained enough power to be able to enter the real world and cause description with the power gained from the data scape worlds and the heart of memories.

I could see her pretending to be someone's shadow, then scaring them for the heck of it.
