'''Protect Chain''' is an [[accessory]] found in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]''.  It is the first accessory it is possible to obtain in the game, found on the [[Destiny Islands]], and can be commonly found later on.  It is a purchase item available in [[Cid]]'s Accessory Shop in [[Traverse Town]], is rarely dropped by the [[Soldier]] [[Heartless]], and comes equipped on several secondary characters, including [[Aladdin]], [[Ariel]], [[Jack Skellington]], and [[Peter Pan]].  It provides a single extra point to Defense.  The upgrade is the [[Protera Chain]].
 
It was originally called the ''Protes Chain'' in Japanese, which may be one of two mythological references. [[wikipedia:Proteus|Proteus]] was a Greek god of the sea known for his shapeshifting abilities.  However, it may also be tied to [[wikipedia:Proetus|Proetus]], son of [[Abas Chain|Abas]] and brother of [[Acrisius]], both of who have items named after them in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.

The '''Protect Chain''' is an [[accessory]] found in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Final Mix]]''.
==Etymology==
The strange Japanese spelling for {{nihongo|"Protect"|プロテス|Purotesu}} is used throughout the ''Final Fantasy'' franchise, and the exact reason for it is unknown. While it certainly means "Protect" in context, it is possible it is also used as a wordplay to reference the mythical {{w|Proetus}}, king of {{w|Tiryns}}, son of [[Abas Chain|Abas]] and twin brother of [[Acrisius]]; at the very least, this double-meaning is played on within the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series.
