{{Youmay|the [[Heartless]]|[[Defender (shield)|the shield]] or [[Defender (ability)|the ability]]}}
The '''Defender''' is an [[Emblem Heartless]] introduced in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''.


The {{nihongo|'''Defender'''|ディフェンダー|Difendā}} is an Emblem [[Heartless]] that is found in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]''.
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.


One of the [[Hollow Bastion]] Heartless, the Defender is essentially a [[Goofy]]-themed enemy and counterpart to the [[Wizard]]. Defenders have two minds; the [[Defender (shield)|Defender]] has 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 the Lucky Strike ability is equipped, as many as possible.
==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. They bear the Heartless emblem on their chests.


The Defender is similar in many ways to the [[Lance Soldier]] from ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.
In battle, the portion of a Defender that tends to be seen most is its massive and fearsome shield, also called the {{c|Defender|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.


It also has a similarity to Beserkers as they appear to be controlled by their claymores and Defenders appear to be controlled by their shields.
The Defender's name is a reference to the {{ff|Defender (Tactics Advance)|Defender}} job class from the ''Final Fantasy'' series.


==Abilities==
==Strategy==
*Guards against frontal attacks with its dog-faced shield, though limit attacks can overcome this.

If timed correctly, Sora can earn [[Tech Points]] for blocking attacks in ''Kingdom Hearts''.<ref>Before Kairi's rescue, 13 Tech Points can be earned for blocking the shield thrust attack in ''Kingdom Hearts''</ref><ref>Before Kairi's rescue, 48 Tech Points can be earned for blocking the fireball attack in ''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix''. An additional 13 Tech Points can be earned if the fireball attack is deflected back at the Defender.</ref><ref>After Kairi's rescue, 12 and 180 Tech Points can be earned for blocking the fireball attack in both ''Kingdom Hearts'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix'', respectively. An additional 25 and 19 Tech Points can be earned for deflecting the attack back at the Defender in ''Kingdom Hearts'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix'', respectively.</ref> A Defender has a 0.2% chance, or a 1 in 500 chance, to leave behind its shield, so it is recommended to equip as many [[Lucky Strike]] [[abilities]] as possible to obtain the shield.
