Knights

In medieval times, the knight was considered a brave man; a courageous, chivalrous man to be. Everyone wanted to be a knight. They were the loyally dutiful men who carried out a king's orders. Whatever the king wished, a knight must do. Occasionally the king's bidding would arrange a battle of which the knights would fight on the front lines.

Knights often wore shining, ironclad armor into battle and carried sturdy, iron longswords. They were experienced, well-trained warriors. They would ride horses into battle, for increased versatility and agility, to get the upper hand. Many times, the side with more knights would win, and the side with no knights would fall into a dark oblivion and off the face of the Earth.
