description
A grey-skinned figure in an impressive suit of reflective black plate armor towers over you. The cruelness of the spikes of his tower shield are matched only by his sneering smirk.
Humanoids who dwell in the Shadow Realm sometimes pursue the path of a shadow knight to better serve their liege lords. Blessed by the shadow fey, these glorified bruisers are dark reflections of the cavaliers who protect the mortal world.
Dark Arms. Knights of shadow carry shadow fey forged swords and shields imbued with potent magic. Merely touching the surface of these armaments is enough to drain warmth and vitality.
Sensory Training. Every knight of shadows is trained to fight in magically dark conditions, so they are equipped to deal with the many light-manipulating creatures who haunt the Shadow Realm. They combine their talents for blind fighting with their magical control of darkness to get the drop on unsuspecting foes.
