The {{nihongo|'''Defender'''|ディフェンダー|Difendā}} is an Emblem [[Heartless]] found in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts coded]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts χ]]''.
The '''Defender''' is an [[Emblem Heartless]] introduced in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''.


Defenders have two minds; the Defender itself wields a shield with a mind of its own. Though Defenders do not do much themselves, their shields use [[Fire]] and [[Blizzard]] magic, block attacks, and bite approaching targets. There is only a 0.2% chance that a Defender would leave behind its shield, which is equal to a 1 in 500 chance, making the shield extremely rare. It is suggested that one equip as many [[Lucky Strike]] abilities as possible in order to attain the [[Defender (shield)|Defender shield]].
Defenders are made up of two parts: the Defender itself wields a shield with a mind of its own. Though Defenders do not do much themselves, their shields use [[Fire]] and [[Blizzard]] [[magic]], [[block]] attacks, and bite approaching targets.


==Design==
==Design==
The Defenders themselves are rather simple in design, resembling a knight clad in purple and blue armor with white trim and yellow buttons; they also have the tell-tale Heartless zig-zag jawline, with a purple head and a silver jaw. The arms and torso are also proportioned much larger than the head and legs, the arm not holding the Defender's main weapon actually rests ape-like on the ground.

The arms and torso are also proportioned much larger than the head and legs, the arm not holding the Defender's main weapon actually rests ape-like on the ground. They bear the Heartless emblem on their chests.


In battle, the portion of a Defender that tends to be seen most is the massive and fearsome shield. The barrier portion of the shield is a simple blue and light blue pattern with gold trim, but far more prominent is the very large and very dangerous blue-black dog head, complete with sharp fangs and spiked collar. The dog also has three glowing yellow eyes arranged in a triangle formation, a feature they oddly share with the far more delicate-looking but equally dangerous [[Angel Star]]s.
