The Dream Shield (ガードオブドリーム Gādo obu Dorīmu, lit. "Guard of Dream") is a weapon which appears in Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts II, and Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. It appears within both Sora's and Roxas's Awakening, alongside the Dream Sword and Dream Rod. These three weapons represent the paths that Sora and Roxas can take — the path of the warrior, the guardian, or the mystic. As the weapon of the guardian, the Dream Shield focuses on defense and avoids strength, and if Sora or Roxas choose it, they will learn their defensive abilities at lower levels. Additionally, Sora will eventually gain two extra Item Slots.
If Sora chooses the Dream Shield in Kingdom Hearts, he will use it as a weapon throughout his Awakening. Like the Dream Sword and Dream Rod it will disappear at the end of the dream. In contrast, if Roxas chooses the Dream Shield in Kingdom Hearts II, it will immediately transform into his Kingdom Key.
In Kingdom Hearts, after obtaining each of the seven spell Arts, Merlin will reward Goofy's progress with the Dream Shield. Goofy can also equip this shield within Mission Mode in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days.
