The '''Oathkeeper''' is a [[Keychain]] for [[Kingdom Key|Sora's Keyblade]] introduced in  ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''. It also appears as half of [[Roxas]]'s [[Oathkeeper & Oblivion|dual set]] of Keyblades alongside the [[Oblivion]], and was transformed from his original Kingdom Key after [[Xion]] returned to Sora. Fundamentally, the Oathkeeper is symbolic of Sora's memories of [[Kairi]].<ref>'''''{{w|Weekly Famitsu}}'''''<!--If anyone knows which volume issue and page this is, please add it-->, '''Tetsuya Nomura''': "The Keyblades the boy who knows Sora is holding are the Oathkeeper and Oblivion from the first game. The precious "Oathkeeper", which Sora received from Kairi. The jet-black Keyblade, symbolic of Riku. The Oblivion, at first, was called Riku's Keyblade. The boy who has the Keyblades from Riku (darkness) and Kairi (light)... Who is he!?"

Originally, the Oathkeeper was meant to have a [[paopu fruit]] as the Keychain's token.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Ultimania#Kingdom Hearts Ultimania|Kingdom Hearts Ultimania]]''''', '''Tetsuya Nomura:''' "In the early stages we called it the "Kairi Keyblade," and I was envisioning giving it a paopu fruit keychain."

When Sora enters [[Castle Oblivion]]{{fact}}, [[Naminé]] rewrites Sora's memories, replacing Kairi's Lucky Charm with what appears to be a trinket from herself. After Sora defeats the [[Darkside]] at [[Destiny Islands]] and speaks with Naminé, she reveals the truth, and the illusion is dispelled.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories}}

After Sora defeats the [[Darkside]] at [[Destiny Islands]] and speaks with Naminé, she reveals the truth, and the illusion is dispelled. He then obtains the first Oathkeeper card afterwards.


Although Sora continued to possess the Lucky Charm after awakening from his hibernation, he is not able to use the Oathkeeper until he returns to [[Twilight Town]] and learns where Kairi had been taken.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts II}}

Within the [[Datascape]], Data-Sora obtains the Oathkeeper Keychain after he fights a {{ns|Game|Data-Roxas|hooded boy}} and learns the truth behind the mysterious message that appears on Jiminy's first journal.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts Re:coded}}
==Design==
The Oathkeeper's shaft displays two hearts, and its handle bears two angel wings, contrasting the bat wings that comprise Oblivion's handle. The teeth are fashioned in the shape of the Kanji for "light" (光), corresponding to the Oblivion's kanji for "darkness". Its Keychain token is Kairi's Wayfinder, a star sewn together from [[Thalassa Shell]]s. In Castle Oblivion, it is replaced by Naminé's trinket until the illusion over Sora's Thalassa charm breaks.  


{{section-stub}}<!--pretty sure this should have headers, also some specifics are wrong-->
In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', the two white points in the teeth of the blade are now darkened. The heart shape next to it is now bigger and level with the teeth. The angel wings making the guard are now yellow and blue, matching the teeth. The heart shape at the bottom of the blade is now hollow.


==Design==
When the Oathkeeper is summoned in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', it emerges in a bright, yellowish-white light. When summoned in ''Kingdom Hearts III'', it appears in sparklingly light and feathers.

The Oathkeeper's English name stems from its Keychain, Kairi's Wayfinder, being a reminder of Sora's promise to her. Its Japanese name, "Promise's Charm," also reflects this status.

In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', this Keyblade's ground combo begins with a thrust forward, followed by a diagonal vertical strike from the right side, and continues with a lightning-fast rush consisting of a horizontal slash left, the same slash right, and a vertical downward slash and ending with a jump back and a rushing diagonal spinning slash. You can change the combo and end it after the first upward slash by pressing {{button|dsy}}; this will trigger a jump into the air and a slightly angled spinning slash. The aerial combo is a rush forward and two downward spinning slashes from either side.
