Joining: Specter Knight

[Specter Knight]

CHARACTER NAME: Specter Knight

CHARACTER SOURCE: Shovel Knight

CHARACTER HISTORY: Prior to his abrupt abduction, Specter Knight was the eighth knight of the Order of No Quarter, a malicious order of knights tasked with ruling and exploiting the untamed lands of the Valley under the banner of  the mysterious Enchantress, who watches over her domain from the Tower of Fate.  Prior to becoming the ruler of the Lich Yard and servant of the Enchantress, Specter Knight was a cruel and cunning warrior by the name of Donovan, who had been enlisted by his old comrade Luan for an expedition deep into the Tower of Fate for a mysterious amulet, believed to be the remedy for an illness that plagued Luan's son. Donovan had a penchant for tenacity, and was determined to save his friend's boy at any cost - including his own life.

In a scuffle with Shield Knight over the amulet, Donovan was killed by the collapsing Tower of Fate, before being resurrected as an undead revenant by the Enchantress, and given the title of Specter Knight. The Enchantress tasked Specter Knight with assembling an order of invincible knights that could take a hold of the Valley in her name. In return, she would make Specter Knight human once more. Specter Knight embarked on a journey across the Valley, reaping the benefits of undeath by defeating and recruiting the Seven Knights of the Order of the No Quarter - King Knight, Plague Knight, Mole Knight, Polar Knight, Tinker Knight and Propeller Knight. In the end, this Order needed an eighth knight, and the Enchantress believed that Reize Seatlan - the now-aged son of Luan - would be the final victim of her will. Still holding on to a promise he made to Luan when he was still known as Donovan, Specter Knight sacrificed his free will by declaring himself the eighth knight instead.

From then onward, Specter Knight loomed in the Lich Yard, satisfied with his sacrifice but cursed with bondage to the Enchantress' will. Unbeknownst to him, freedom was right around the corner.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION:

Specter Knight appears as grim as he sounds, standing at roughly 6 feet tall when wearing his bone-plate armor. It can be assumed that Specter Knight is nothing more than rotting flesh and exposed bones beneath the armor, and his face is left obscured in every work he's appeared in. Because he is literally just skin and bones, he's presumably very lightweight even while wearing the armor.

Physical Strength (1000)

STARTING MOVES:
Specter Scythe (requires Physical Strength) - 300 OM
A large scythe, it's 'head' about four feet across it's length and one foot at it's base, fastened upon a five-foot wooden shaft. Despite it's unwieldy appearance, Specter Knight can wield it with one hand. It's strikes are powerful and sweeping, and with the knight's technique it can be as fast as an average broadsword by leveraging the weight upon it's head.

TOTAL OM SPENT: 4500

Ah, yeah. Many months ago I signed up as Dio Brando, and uh, proceeded to never post. In hindsight that was a very poor choice of 'first character' considering how much effort it took to get his moves approved. I'll be sticking with Specter Knight as my 'first character' if that's alright. Apologies for any confusion.
