Wandering Knight Armor

• View history

The Wandering Knight Armor is a side antagonist and NPC from Louin's first campaign, and remains the most powerful non-bestial foe the Schpengal Survivors have fought besides Baevis .

History [ ]

The Armor's only appearance in current canon is in the Wandering Knight's Dungeon between Deaton and Daglan. The dungeon was a puzzle and trap-filled cavern with multiple different secrets and magic properties. It appears that the dungeon is/was pseudo-haunted to an extent, as there was a seemingly sentient voice speaking to and watching the Survivors as they progressed through the dungeon.

The Armor resided in the lowest and largest room in it's dungeon, and stood directly in the front middle of the furthest wall from the door, putting some distance between itself and those who became trapped in the room. It is unknown just how long the Armor has been standing there. Before being awakened by the Survivors, the Armor seemed statue-like and unmoving. It is unknown when the Armor was created, what it was made of, who wore it, and if it was ever even worn. It can be assumed it was a paladin's or holy warrior's based on it's extremely strong magical properties.

Aspects [ ]

As previously mentioned, it is completely unknown what materials the Armor is made of and how much it would be worth to a collector or historian. These factors may never be explored as most of the Armor was left in it's dungeon. There were aspects of the armor, however, the Survivors did take along with them:

Ganymede 's Javelin of Lightning

Pipi Pupu Ma'an 's Gauntlets of Ogre Power

Raulf 's Ring of Jumping

And Varis ' Bag of Tricks

Strength: unknown

Dexterity: unknown

Constitution: unknown

Intelligence: unknown

Fallen Knight Set  is an Armor in Dark Souls 3 .

Armor of an order of fallen knights who disbanded and fled but met untimely deaths. The drab, tattered cloth conceals tough, black metal which provides dependable protection from fire. It is just possible to make out the majestic gold engravings on its surface.

Location/Where to Find

• Found in the Road of Sacrifices , from the Halfway Fortress bonfire, go to the lake near two hostile NPCs, by a Great Crab , and all of the pieces can be looted from a corpse.
• Video location  (fextralife video starting at 52m 14s)

Notes and Tips

• This is an excellent medium weight set all around.
• Generally good fire resist, and excellent lightning and strike resist for a set of metal armor.
• The worn appearance seems similar to Hawkwood's Shield , but this is purely speculation.
• Close inspection (especially of the helm) reveals similarities to the Drakeblood Set .
• Being a hooded armor set, it also carries a loose resemblance to the Yahar'gul Hunter Set from Bloodborne .

Looks cool and the pants being soiled is funny. Perfect set for the sad, grey little man I made

Got this set, put it on, and never took it off, dont care if I look like a edgelord it just looks so ****ing cool

Drake knights :O We meet again!

great set for a pyromancy build, it just fits so well (especially if you're using a Longsword/Witch's Locks)

Pver armour

I miss this armor set in elden ring, and no, vagabond armor doesn't replace it.

gigachad noob armour

Love this set and used it for my first run, dont understand the hate

early game drip souls?

looks pretty good with gael's greatsword imo :>

Haters will see you wearing this and say you don’t have the vitality for exiles set

the black knight sword matches with it really well for some reason

To be honest I don’t get the point of fashion souls sometimes

Unpopular opinion: I think the chest piece looks better than the helmet.

Fashion souls

It was my favourite set in terms of Fashion Souls. I've been using it for really long time, untill decided to switch to Wolf Knight Set. Didn't knew that is a set for "casuals" and noobs, lol.

Helmet and chestpiece are quite visually similar to the Vinheim set, only, more decrepit and worn

Bro y'all have no originality, 9th host I find with this armor equipped come on guys atleast make it interesting if you're going to play like an absolute coward.

If you’re not with me... then you’re my enemy...

such a sick looking set that gets ruined by toxic pvpers

Great armour, terrible stigma *points down* *“I’m sorry” Carving*

come on guys, it's a pretty cool looking hood fr.

imma be honest I hate when people use this helm in fashion souls because anytime i see someone using it it just doesnt even match whatever else theyre wearing

Dark katanas, undead dragons, magic anime great swords, playing a game called "Dark Souls..." but this muddy set of armor with a hood at the beginning of the game, that's for edgelord casuals

People making ugly ass fashion souls when this masterpiece exists

Looks like Vinhelm's set a bit. I've always thought this was a Londor set. Any lore theories floating around?

Aka the armor set that causes an immense amount of seethe

increase chance of pointing down and throwing dung pie by 100%

Allow me to end the ignorance once and for all. The excerpt "stained with the misery of flight" refers to the constant travelling the fallen knights took part in which could include traversing through swamps. The armor set is found in Crucifixion Woods so it's pretty safe to assume they may have been through Farron Keep and Cathedral of the Deep. To put it in TL;DR form: If anything, they're as battle-hardened as they come, their athleticism is unmatched, and they may, or may not know your mother as a result.

I mean of all the armors in darksouls 3 I prefer this. I especially like the chest piece and wearing silver knight gauntlets with the thief mask looks pretty cool.

Face it, the only reason you guys are hating on this set is because you suck at the game and just because you die wearing it doesn't mean you can **** on an interesting armor

Ugly, greasy, SMELLY armor set!!!

People call this "Casual" and "Noob Armor" but the truth is, it is one of the best and most versatile armor set in the game.

Really like the torn-cloak look of this, plus it has an actual armor component underneath. One of my faves for sure.

losers ahead, therefore debunk

Black hand hat + fallen knight armor + morne's gauntlets + assassin trousers = Bloodborne: PC edition.

Glad people are seeing the star wars i'm seeing

All hail our true leader Revan, Dark Lord of the Sith.

I've played DS3 for quite a while, and I typically use this set in all of my playthroughs? Why? Because edgy doesn't equal bad. This set and Friede's Great Scythe, possibly more edgy than the Katana. Also I'm a big Star Wars fan and this has that sort of aesthetic, so there is also that.

This arnorset, astora greatsword and grass crest shield. It's not an exciting build but it is my build.

Just looks like something out of star wars to me..

Fallen knight armor, grass crest shield, uchigatana/irithyll straight sword is the new player uniform and I actually love it. Whenever I invade one I give them a little present and leave

I find it funny when people whine about a set being so "EdGy" in a goddamn game called mother ****ing darksouls. like come the **** on and grow up.

I've been playing this game for years and never put this set on, but in a recent playthrough as a pyro with low vitality this set just checked all the boxes, excellent defense to weight, good all round resistances and in found in a swamp right next the the great swamp pyro tome and next to the crab that drops the great swamp ring, so I thought this was pretty perfect for my character. Then I suddenly started getting messages in PvP about my gear and even one guy I co-op'ed with, mocking it. So I googled it, and well, I have no idea what happens to peoples minds when they play these souls games but it appears to effect some brains in a very negative and eccentric way. Great games but what a bizarre fan base.

Wait, so it is good or it is bad? I found it and thought it look neat, so I decided it would be my armor until I find elite knight armor. Irdc bout stats and defense, in my souls experience everything one hits u in ng+ so who cares. Real Chads focus on fashion

Casual bashing? Be happy that people are playin this game and that multiplayer isnt dead although there are a ton of toxic "pro"-players. Let players wear and use what they like for gods sake

would look better with less cloth

One of those cases when a good piece of gear is absolutely destroyed by community of the game. Personally - i absolutely love this set. It was the set i finished my 1st blind playthrough with. I love the humble nature of it as it attempts to pathetically hide its real nature with clothes that are literally hanging by a thread. The lore suggest that the original owners were not a particularly brave set of individuals, so it makes it almost cute that something so cowardly and broken attempts to brave the dying world. Even default knight set has more dignity to it than this poor thing.

I’ll just use this with onikiri and ubadachi for my cosplay of Hadern from mortal shell.

This armor + shield of want + any SS = UBER-casual deLuxe

YOU THINK YOU KNOW ME

There's absolutely nothing wrong with this armor, but it's also 100% the official newbie uniform of DS3. Just like the Alva armor in DS2 and the Drake Sword in DS1.

why is this comment section either full of *******s trying to be funny or casual players who just like the armor for some reason I'm not gonna ask why someone seems to hate autistic people grow up 8 year old you most likely don't even know what being autistic is you just heard someone say it and you assumed its a insult its a fucing amour set your causing s h i t over this comment section is worse than gwyndolins wiki page the toxic is rancid

its a armor set if you don't like it don't wear it wear a different one half the insults that are being use here are unneeded also for some reason someone has a hatred for autistic people erm grow up 8 year old or learn what autism is can we all shut up arguing and being *******s now?

this helmet looks like that one kermit with a hood and now i cant unsee it help

I used this set for my Reaper build. Dark Great Scythe and dark miracles. Looked better then the dark wraith's set to me. I felt like it really brought it all together.

Lots of people here seem upset because there are casual players

it’s a cool set of armor, you guys are all just autists

Is this what they meant when they said "Casual wear"?

Gotta love the retards arguing about whether or not this set is for casuals.. If you think any set or weapon is for casuals, you're probably a casual too.

The armor of choice for pro players. looks ultra badass with pkcs and feels very satisfying when dropping dung pie on casuls after owning them.

I only listen Linkin Park when I'm doin ur Mom! Which means? I listen to Linkin Park all the time!

Wow people are seriously trying to defend the edgy armor? What got Linkin Park playing while doing your "super duper elite pvp" which we all know is rolly polly R1 spam with a straight sword.

This and irthyll ss with shield of want= casul ahead

It's too bad experienced players are such TURDS all they can do is put down new/casual players because, what? They have jobs, families, lives? "Oh, woe is me that has to judge other people because they can't sit around with a headset on an pick my nose"! Poor SOULS!

Cool set, but will forever be famous for being worn by R1 spamming new players lol

Let people enjoy sets

The set+irithryll ss+grass shield=Dark Souls3 starter pack

It’s a shame that this armor is associated with trash casuals who barely know how to play the game. It’s fairly viable armor and looks pretty cool.

I've been using this armor for... Quite a while, actually (since my first ng) and I recently tried to mix it with other sets, for now I've only stopped for 2 pieces (helm with the billed mask and torso with the fallen knight) but i can't choose any gauntlets nor trousers, so do you guys have an idea ?

I think whatever asshat that wrote the tips section is a mite bit salty...

So, we can all agree on that this is the most overused armor in the game, right?

what r u, a casul?

this + irithyll ss = the CASUL cosplay

I dont know why the the knight helmet with the hood over it looks so cool to me

Fallen Knight Helm and Chest with Sorcerer Pants and Gloves or Pyromancer Wraps. imo the earliest decent light-medium setup offering all round protections and resistance.

Canonically the armor of people who don't accept death with honor, and instead choose to flee (Disconnect)

It is a metaphor, "dampened and indelibly stained with the misery of flight" - so it's just shame of being a coward what is it stained with.

Elite Knight armor > Casul Knight armor

People who wear this armor think they are skilled with their irithyll sword until I destroy them with my pkcs because pkcs is the best weapon in the game

People think they look so cool in this set even though the pants are filled with piss/**** and the helmet looks like a goofy face.

Looks good with helm, then the full sunset armor

Though of a noticeably different color, the Lothric Knight Helm can fit quite well with this armor if you're going for a unhooded version

reminds me of kylo ren from star wars

Make sure to use the frayed blade for the complete edge lord weeaboo look

favorite armor set

This is a worn down black and gold version of the standard Knight set. Look at the inventory pictures for each piece and compare them, they are the same models, even the knives on the belt are the same. The gold lines on the helmet match perfectly with the gray lines on the Knight helmet. The pants are the same except the armor is removed and there are ropes tied on it, the gauntlets are the same too. I'm guessing this armor was originally made for a higher tier of knights from the same place the standard knight armor came from, and has obviously seen considerable use(and peeing).

Okay, Fashion souls Idea: Head - Prayer Hood (Can be switched out for Vilhelm's helm or Drakeblood helmet) Chest - Fallen Knight Armor Arms - Nameless Knight Gauntlets Legs - Alva Leggings

Fallen Knight Set Irithyll Straight Sword Name a more iconic duo.

CRAAAAAAAAAWLING IN MY SKIIIIIIIIIIN

According to concept art from the DS3 Design Works book this was originally going to be Hawkwood's armor set or at least for a similar Deserter character that was eventually reworked into Hawkwood, armor at the time looked a bit like the Demons Souls Fluted armor. (Look at the shield it's very similar to Hawkwood's shield, the image is labeled as NPC: Deserter in the book and Hawkwood himself is absent from the Design Works Book)

Combine this with Exile Greatsword You’ll get so many messages calling you casual when you destroy people As a bonus this Armor looks really good with EGS too

The chest piece looks awesome with the Sellsword Helm

Spoiler alert: you will find this armor in demon's souls remake.

Wish it had a cape.

OG dark souls armor

Took me a fairly long while to realize that it's a pristine version of the Vagabond Knight Set.

All it needs is a cape

St Andrew's armour, I call it. Match it with the blue and white small shield and a mighty Claymore!

Knight Errant

Edit locked.

"While evil flourishes and wrongs grow rank, while men are persecuted and women wronged, while weak things, human or animal, are maltreated, there is no rest for me beneath the skies, nor peace at any board or bed. Farewell!" — Solomon Kane , The Blue Flame of Vengeance

The medieval Knight Errant stems from the Chivalric Romance , where individual Knights in Shining Armor would wander the land, searching for evil to slay and ladies to rescue , most often guided by the Damsel Errant . Since then, knights have declined in popularity, but the Knight Errant is still around in full force — instead of knights, they are now often Samurai , Cowboys , or Samurai Cowboys .

Historically, a knight errant would refer to a landless knight who would travel in the service of his lord and hoping to earn his own land. If he is traveling because he was sent by someone it might be a case of My Master, Right or Wrong . They are basically the feudal equivalent of The Stateless .

Knights Errant have some or all of the following traits:

• They, by definition, have Chronic Hero Syndrome . They may or may not request compensation , but will always try to do the right thing.
• They have no fixed home, and spend their lives Walking the Earth ( "errant" means "wandering" ). When they're finished smiting the local evil, they'll up and leave.
• They have a code of honor. If they are heroes, they can be a Knight in Sour Armor , but will always have some degree of idealism inside. On the rare occasion they're a villain, they're usually a Noble Demon or He Who Fights Monsters .
• They seek out wrongs to right, generally on a small scale — a town beset by bandits, a dragon preying on the locals, etc. Only occasionally will they be pitted against an Evil Overlord with earth-conquering ambitions. They often have one specific quest they are on, but you can count on them running into unrelated trouble along the way.
• They are loners. They do not have any True Companions and are not part of a team . They may travel with a squire or two, but not with peers; they leave allies behind when they leave town. Their love interests, if any, are left behind or bumped off by the bad guys. A general exception to this is they may have a loyal steed.
• Sometimes, they are The Stoic , almost to the point of being less a character and more a physical incarnation of justice. They are very prone to having a Mysterious Past . This type generally overlaps with The Drifter .
• The classic Knight Errant of Chivalric Romance is often accompanied by his Distaff Counterpart and complement the Damsel Errant . He is seeking adventure and she knows where adventures are to be found.

There are many variations on the Knight Errant outside of Knights In Shining Armor . The Western very often stars a Knight Errant in the form of a wandering gunslinger or cowboy. Samurai are often, and Rōnin are almost always, Knights Errant. Wuxia heroes are Knights Errant. Because of the shared archetype, stories about one type of Knight Errant can easily be Recycled IN SPACE — New Old West and Space Western are examples of this. Some people regard Superheroes as the modern-day version of knights errant.

Adventuring parties from tabletop RPGs aren't normally an example of this; a key part of this trope is that the knight is solitary. "Solo" campaigns, with a single player and a DM, are however not uncommon. Many open-world RPG video games are basically built around being a Knight Errant. The player is given a Wide-Open Sandbox populated by people who need help, and they wander around finding those people and solving their problems.

Compare The Drifter , an accidental Knight Errant. The wizardly equivelant of this trope is Wandering Wizard , though those are not necesarrily noble.

See Knights Errant for the Webcomic .

• Digimon : Gankoomon of the Royal Knights, according to supplemental materials, wanders the Digital World putting a stop to anything unusual, in-between mentoring the younger Hackmon. This makes it different from every other Royal Knight, who only ever show up when the Digital World's experiencing disaster, and as a result Gankoomon has a lot of friends all over. Gankoomon is working hard to pass on his title of knight to Hackman, for whatever reason.
• Dragon Ball : Goku in his earlier years, but especially during the Pilaf Arc, the Red Ribbon Army arc, and the anime's "Worldly Training" filler. Goku would travel the world searching for his grandfather's Four-Star Dragon Ball (or just to train and experience the world), but would often get caught up in local trouble and sort out their issues along the way. Dragon Ball 's wuxia influence persists even when Goku stops wandering the world in that while he never goes around looking for trouble, he'll always step in if he encounters injustice on his pursuit to his own goals.
• Fullmetal Alchemist : The Elric brothers seem like this at the beginning, before the wider-reaching plot arcs start up—they travel from place to place, righting wrongs and searching for leads on how to get their bodies back. Especially true in Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) , which had a few extra filler episodes near the beginning that consisted almost entirely of the Elrics going somewhere, righting some wrong, and going along their merry way, with the episode tying in minimally or not at all to the long-term plot.
• K : Kuroh Yatogami was this after his master's death, until he finds a new master in the first series. Then, when his immortal new master apparently dies, he spends a year searching for him, sometimes with Neko as his companion. The prequel manga Stray Dog Story covers the first time, and a midquel manga covers the second.
• Mushishi : Having the skills to deal with mushi usually comes because they're a Weirdness Magnet for them; as such, once mushisi finish off a foe, they usually leave before more of them are drawn in.
• Pokémon: The Series : Ash Ketchum, by nature of the local Pokémon League's Badge requirements. He'll travel the length and breadth of a region to collect the badges by defeating the Gym Leaders, but since they're all far apart he spends the majority of his time on the road. This means he'll frequently often encounter new friends along the way and help them sort out their woes, usually caused by Team Rocket.
• Puella Magi Madoka Magica : This initially seems to be the life of Magical Girls — wander around on your own, saving people from monstrous "witches" whenever you find them. But this is subverted in various ways; Mami eventually reveals she's Not So Stoic , and would much rather fight on a team instead of solo. Sayaka takes the hero concept too seriously, and becomes a Knight Templar . Kyouko was originally more knight-esque than Mami, but became a Knight in Sour Armor masquerading as a Blood Knight after a disastrous event broke her faith in goodness and justice. Homura seems to be the antagonist, but she's really attempting to save Madoka from Kyubey ; this, too, gets turned around when Homura fails and Madoka tricks Kyubey , giving herself the ability to wander all of time and space on her own heroic quest.
• Parn in Record of Lodoss War . He's known as the Free Knight because he officially holds loyalty to no kingdom and helps anyone in need, no matter their allegiance or nationality.
• In The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World , Tougo went to both ends of the world while trying to find a way home before realizing that this fantasy world has many of the same struggles as his own world. Because of this, he started travelling from place to place, helping everyone he could while raising his adventurer rank to figure out why he was sent here.
• Rurouni Kenshin : Kenshin did this for ten years prior to the series, which starts with him temporarily suspending his Walking the Earth to stay in a dojo in Tokyo. His variation is that unless he's actively kicking butt, his looks, natural personality, and Obfuscating Stupidity work together to make sure nobody takes him seriously.
• Samurai Champloo : Jin, prior to the series. After objecting to his master's choices , he was forced to kill him in self-defense and flee. Rejecting bushido as a code that binds people to mindlessly follow villains and idiots (best shown in his Establishing Character Moment in the very first episode; he didn't mince his demeaning words towards three samurai guards and the lord they served), he wanders around Japan searching for a purpose until Fuu makes him her bodyguard.
• Trigun : Vash the Stampede does this with a lot of Obfuscating Stupidity . He's a little less formal about it than Kenshin, because he hasn't got a vow, this is just his lifestyle, and he only learned to fight out of necessity, so he doesn't have quite the same type of warrior ethos as a proper knight or samurai.
• Elspeth Tirel, who actually bears the title of Knight-Errant. Elspeth's defining trait is that she doesn't want to planeswalk; she just wants to find paradise and stay there. Of course, this is Magic . Her first home was destroyed by Phyrexia , and her adopted home of Bant became culturally contaminated when the shards of Alara merged. After that, she joined the rebellion against New Phyrexia on Mirrodin, only to watch that slowly crumble. She was then chosen by the sun god Heliod to be his champion, which she succeeded at... only for him to immediately murder her because he considers Planeswalker a threat. As of Theros: Beyond Death she is now Back from the Dead , and has seemingly resumed this status.
• Judge Dredd has this as a retirement option for Judges who don't want to take an academy teaching post or a desk job . They can either head out into the Cursed Earth, or down into the Undercity, to take the law to the lawless.
• Lucky Luke : The titular character embodies this, to the point where the last panel of every album is him riding off into the sunset, singing I'm a lonesome cowboy.
• The Sandman (1989) : Invoked by Gilbert, who insists upon being Rose Walker's "Knight Errant" in her search for her brother.
• Star Wars: Knight Errant focuses on the adventures of Kerra Holt, a lone Jedi Knight during the dark time before the final Battle of Ruusan, where the Sith outnumber the Jedi and the Republic has been whittled down to just the areas around the core, as she travels around planets in the Sith zone and fights the good fight.
• Star Wars: Republic : In Issue 53: Blast Radius , Obi-Wan meets up with a group of Jedi who, rather than being part of the central, Coruscant-based Order, wander through the lawless areas of the galaxy helping strangers and righting wrongs, following their instincts and the guidance of the Force — Knol Ven'nari, a Bothan bandit-hunter; Jon Antilles, who infiltrated the bounty hunters' guild to bring murderers to justice; Nico Diath, who plagued the Hutts' slaver cartels and freed hundreds of slaves over his lifetime; and Fay, a profoundly pacifist wanderer whose diplomacy had ended entire wars.
• Zao maintains little contact with the Jedi hierarchy and lets the Force guide him across the Galaxy to provide help wherever he's needed. He even maintains this lifestyle after Order 66.
• The Warlord seems to be based on this trope. Travis Morgan, a.k.a. "the Warlord", was a USAF lieutenant colonel who crash-landed in Skartaris, a world inside the hollow Earth. A modern man injected into a world of sword and sorcery, he falls in love with and marries Tara, the warrior-queen of Shambhala. The character avoids a bad cliché by not becoming Skartaris' leader and attempting to impose his values on it, but neither can he sit idly by at the royal court whilst knowing how much is "wrong" in the rest of the world. As a result, he is constantly absent, journeying around Skartaris as a knight errant, enjoying the role of an adventurer far more than that of a king.
• Chapter 20 of The Good Hunter introduces Sir Henry Watson who refers himself as such, with the armour and mannerisms to match. Upon noticing the Hunter, he recognizes him as an arch-heretic and proceeds to challenge the Hunter to a Duel to the Death in hopes of claiming his head. Henry ends up getting shot for his troubles, dying an Undignified Death .
• Vow of Nudity : While Haara is a monk (a naked one, no less), behaviorally she hits every bullet point on the list. Most stories involve her Walking the Earth , getting involved in local conflicts to help the underprivileged, and sending any money she earns to a group dedicating to freeing slaves from the tyrannical empire that once enslaved her.
• Dollars Trilogy : The Man With No Name might be the ultimate Western example. His Japanese counterpart in Yojimbo even moreso. He just stumbles on the town the film takes place in while wandering aimlessly and gets involved in the Mob War for both justice and profit.
• Star Wars : Jedi often act as Knights Errant. A New Hope itself was adapted from The Hidden Fortress , a samurai movie. By the book Obi-Wan is a good specific example because he is an ideal Jedi Knight.
• William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet has Romeo symbolically dressing up as a knight errant at the Capulet's party as he calls himself a pilgrim who has traveled to the shrine of Juliet.
• Bolo has the titular Bolo's, self-aware ultratanks with enough firepower to wipe a planet clean of life. They are openly stated as being Knight Errants, and in many cases are more "Human," than those they protect. Many Bolo stories involve a Bolo sacrificing itself to save the lives of innocents, or about them trying to understand their human companions. One story ends with the Bolo literally getting knighted.
• A Certain Magical Index : Before he became a member of God's Right Seat, Acqua of the Back used to do this, serving as a mercenary unaligned with any official power who would travel to battlefield after battlefield helping people no matter where he went and never asked for anything in exchange. In addition, he would teach people how to better themselves, causing the people to call him a sage and ultimately would have earned him a knighthood from the United Kingdom if he didn't abandon it. Even becoming a member of God's Right Seat was because he believed he could serve his personal cause better in such a position. Quite fitting given he is a Saint .
• The Dark Tower : Roland Deschain is a Gunslinger from another dimension who is descended from Arthur Eld and wields guns that were forged from Excalibur. He's on an epic quest to reach the Dark Tower and fight the forces of evil. The story is very loosely based on the poem "Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came," which is itself based on The Song of Roland .
• Daughter of the Sun : Orsina is this with her duty as a paladin . She rides around in Vesolda on her quest to seek out an unknown great evil, helping anyone in need from other evils that she's encountered, asking nothing in return while usually all alone on the road. The main difference is she starts traveling with Aelia, whom Orsina believes is just another person in need, and Aelia's soon become her Love Interest . Orsina is very grateful for having company even before they fall in love.
• The Dresden Files : The Knights of the Cross fit this archetype; even Michael, who has a home, a wife, and a small army of children spends much of his time traveling the globe, righting wrongs and fighting evil. Their main job, as it turns out, is somewhat different — they're actually supposed to get the Denarians' hosts to repent and give up the Denarians . The doing random good seems to only be their secondary function.
• Greyhawk : The Justicar, hero of Paul Kidd's trilogy of White Plume Mountain , Descent Into The Depths Of The Earth , and Queen Of The Demonweb Pits does everything but travel alone. Much to his discomfort, he accumulates ever more companions through the series. He starts with just a sentient hellhound skin, and collects a faerie princess who is also an accomplished mage, a drunken human teamster (who later becomes a drunken badger), a female sphynx, a young male human soldier, a talking sword, and a non-evil demon (who just wants a nice clean, calm, safe place to settle down with her boyfriend).
• Arthurian Legend : The Knights of the Round Table were a squadron of Knights Errant. Even though they were a team, they typically adventured alone. The Trope Namer is Sir Gawain and the Green Knight , in which Gawain is referred to as a "knygt erraunt".
• "Errantry": A very tiny knight errant is the subject of the aptly titled poem. The poem includes descriptions of his marvellously shiny armour , his attempts to woo and marry a butterfly , and his epic battles with dragonflies and bumblebees . Also, perhaps coincidentally, you can sing it to the tune of Gilbert and Sullivan 's " I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General ".
• The Lord of the Rings : Aragorn starts out as one of the Rangers, the ragged survivors of the fallen Kingdom of Arnor, who now live as solitary wanderers in the northern wilderness, hunting monsters and keeping the roads safe.
• Knight and Rogue Series : The protagonist is a knight errant who lives about 200 years after errantry has gone out of fashion. His squire is a former con man who at first comes along mostly because it keeps him out of jail, and later to look after his employer, who's prone to Honor Before Reason .
• Loyal Enemies has an entire group of those, who decided to band together to be more effective. They are now called the Order of White Raven and their life mission is to defend people, whatever race they might belong to.
• MechWarrior : The first novel in the Dark Age series centers around a Knight Errant. He is essentially a Mech Warrior who had the job of traveling to trouble spots around the galaxy and basically lying low to gather information and take action in case something came up, although this was not apparent for the first several chapters.
• Moth and Cobweb : In Green Knight's Squire , Gil explicitly tells Ruff he's this when they are searching for a job.
• Patricia A. McKillip : In "The Kelpie", Nice Guy Ned is suggested for this in a painting; he wishes he could be evil for once, and is asked if he can settle for triumphant.
• Madou Monogatari : Shin Madou Monogatari Gaiden , a connected light novel series , depicts Ragnus Bisashi as one. He has the knightly, heroic disposition, but because of his monster slaying reputation, the people he saves end up fearing his might, causing a disconnect between him and the town folk he helps out. As a result, he comes in, does his heroics, then books it as quietly as possible.
• The Saint : Simon Templar, more commonly known as the titular Saint, is this in many of creator Leslie Charteris's stories (one story collection was even titled Saint Errant ) and in some episodes of the TV series that starred Roger Moore. Not so much in the Val Kilmer movie .
• Saint George : In the popular medieval legend of St. George and the Dragon, St. George liberates a town and saves a princess by killing a fearsome dragon. There is no explanation on what business brought St. George to the town, making St. George the Trope Maker of a travelling knight that helps out people he meets by accident along the road.
• Saint George and the Dragon by Margaret Hodges, an adaptation of a part of The Faerie Queene , begins with the Red Cross Knight riding across a plain, bound on a great adventure, sent by the Queen of the Fairies to fight the dragon.
• Sharpe : A rare anti-heroic version appears in the form of Richard Sharpe. Lampshaded by Major Hogan in Sharpe's Havoc . Given Sharpe's fairly strong Chivalrous Pervert tendencies, there's usually something in it for him... Hogan: King Arthur , God rest his soul, would have loved you. He'd have had you rescuing every maiden in the land.
• Sir Nigel very much wants to be one, and even refuses to ask for his beloved's hand in marriage until he's accomplished three heroic feats. Unfortunately, as they're in the middle of a war with France, his commanders have to tell him to knock of the knight-errantry (which also involves things like picking a fight with every knight you encounter, righting every wrong you see, and allying with a Frenchman to take out a Chaotic Evil Feudal Overlord ). Of course, he still ends up winning the day thanks to his romanticism, by beating an armed man in single combat, taking a castle with barely a dozen men , and capturing the King of France in battle.
• Current masterless knights are called "hedge knights" and are generally seen as either one step above common mercenaries and/or bounty hunters or more as something akin to wandering sports stars (these are basically tourney knights who move from competition to competition to make both a living and a retirement fund primarily out of their winnings from the jousting and/or the melee contests, rather than through seeking political favour, battle promotions or rent incomes). Further, then there are the knights who become rudderless thanks to losing their political position and/or sponsors thanks to the game of thrones shifting from under them, even if they prefer not to think of themselves as hedge knights, but as temporary exiles somewhat between masters at the moment, rather. Many of those will generally make it to Essos to find "honest", well-paying work with the mercenary companies over there. All Westerosi knights will at least have sufficient horsemanship that it makes it worthwhile to glance at the resume a second time, however humble their current circumstances and equipment may make them look.
• Tales of Dunk and Egg , a Prequel series to A Song of Ice and Fire , plays with this concept. Ser Duncan appears to embody a classic knight errant. He's (relatively) young and quite idealistic, believing in the code of honor that knights are supposed to follow. Indeed, he believes that "The Hedge Knight", i.e., the wanderer who sleeps in meadows and beneath trees, is closer to a "true knight" than the more political, class-conscious, power-playing knights he witnesses. After the first story, the pattern is established that he'll wander into a new area, encounter a problem, help solve it (though not in the way he originally intended) and then move on.
• Star Wars Legends : This is sometimes (ostensibly) the Jedi ideal, although they often act more or less as a branch of the Republic. In the New Jedi Order in particular, a few Jedi are known for avoiding the sometimes highly political Jedi Order and making their own way, such as Master Eelysa (and the Wild Knights, a band of Jedi she trained more or less on her own), Tyria Sarkin and her children, and, for a time, Corran Horn. Jolee Bindo from Knights of the Old Republic did much the same thousands of years before. In the earlier period, "Gray Jedi" were those who voluntarily separated from the Order, often over philosophical issues, yet were acknowledged not to have fallen to the Dark Side . Additionally there were the Jedi Sentinels, who sought to serve the galactic citizenry directly by living among them as opposed to cloistering themselves in the Temple.
• Stones of Power : John Shannow, the Jerusalem Man, starts by wandering a post-Apocalyptic Earth in a vague search for Jerusalem, but is repeatedly distracted by evil.
• Thursday Next : Colonel Next is consistently described as a "time-travelling Knight Errant", usually turning up in the nick of time to save the world.
• Tortall Universe : Alanna of Trebond starts out in The Woman Who Rides Like a Man to escape court and find adventure. She is extremely successful. Lampshaded by Raoul of Goldenlake when training his Badass Normal squire, Keladry of Mindelan, who is highly gifted as a commander; while Alanna's achievements are deservedly legendary, a solid commander is often of more use to King and realm than a questing hero. (Alanna does do the realm plenty of good as the King's Champion, however.)
• The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. : Brisco and Lord Bowler fit this perfectly. They are bounty hunters travelling the West looking for bad guys, and usually finding them.
• Doctor Who : The Doctor often fits this trope, even if he's not actively seeking wrongs to right, he seldom hesitates to get involved when he runs into one. He's had many companions, but they act more like "squires" than true partners and none of them stay with him forever. * Three of these "squires" have been officially knighted, each by a different sovereign of England: Ian by King Richard Lionheart, Rose by Queen Victoria, and the Brigadier by Queen Elizabeth II. His sixth incarnation outright calls himself a Knight Errant at least once.
• Brienne is heading progressively into Black Knight territory (as in the Real Life masterless, landless black knights) after the deaths of Renly Baratheon and Catelyn Stark.
• Robert admits that he'd prefer the life of a travelling sellsword to being King, any day of the week.
• Highway to Heaven : Jonathan Smith seeks out troubled people through the direction of God, expressed as intuition.
• Kaamelott : Lancelot is supposed to be this, but as Arthur's prime minister hasn't getten around to any errantry lately. He ends up going back to the lifestyle in later seasons (yet another thing for him and Arthur to disagree over), until he ends up rebelling in full.
• The Master is a show about an aging ninja master and his apprentice , traveling in a van and righting wrongs.
• Quantum Leap : Dr. Sam Beckett grows into a time-traveling one of these who "strives to put right what once went wrong" one life at a time. The series begins with Beckett more properly a Drifter whose wish is to return home; he gradually asumes the role of a Knight Errant as he decides that Leaping is how he wants to live out his existence.
• Most Hunters in general are Knights Errant. They tend not to stay in fixed locations, since their work tends to leave suspicious messes behind and there are only so many monsters in one location. They work mainly on the small scale, tracking down individual monsters, and work out of concern for the mission rather than for compensation, since few of the people they help even know what they do much less are willing or able to pay for it. Finally, most work alone and have few friends except other scattered Hunters—many of them became Hunters because they lost their loved ones to monsters, and they are consequently wary of getting too attached to people who might be endangered by their work or used against them by their enemies.
• Sam and Dean are the main examples, especially the former. While they have other overarching goals each season, they always stop by in whatever wayward towns are being haunted, even if they don't have personal reasons to, and deal with the supernatural threats there. Although they are involved in criminal activity such as false credit cards and fake IDs , this is done for sustenance and to further their mission.
• Sam and Dean's father, John Winchester, was another notable example, who trained his sons to follow in his footsteps. His journal detailing the monsters he hunted in various locations around the USA has played a major role in the series.
• Electric Light Orchestra : "Wild West Hero" is very much an ode to The Western version of this hero.
• Anima: Beyond Fantasy has a twist on this in Khaine D'elacreu, a young female paladin who after the death of her father, member of a knight order , in unknown circumstances took her lance and her shield to walk Gaïa as in her country women were not expected to become that.
• In second edition, the Errant was a kit for the Paladin introduced in Complete Paladin's Handbook , based around this. A roaming hero who goes where he's needed and picks up whatever cause he believes in as he comes across them. The main advantage of the kit was that it was not subject to the, at the time, every strict fealty restrictions normal Paladins had, at the cost of not having a real patron to turn towards.
• As later editions toned down the fealty aspect to a ruler or church of the Paladin class, one could argue that Knight Errant tend to be the default version of good aligned player characters Paladins in later editions (At least until they join a party where they tend to lose the loner status). Following the adventurer lifestyle, they easily slot into this trope: tend to still have some code, they often lack a proper base of operation, etc...
• Ironclaw : Knight Errant is one of the possible careers , though not all of the traits are necessary, many are essentially mercenaries of noble birth.
• Warhammer : Bretonnia has a unit called Knights Errant, representing the young, impetuous knights whose courage sometimes outpaces their skill. Their special rules reflect these details. A better example of this trope, Questing Knights, are knights who have given up their feudal responsibilities to quest for the Grail and the Lady of the Lake; their oaths command them never to stay in one place for too long, and they keep righting wrongs until they die or drink from the Grail.
• The fleet-based Marines Errant were founded specifically to constantly travel the galaxy in small groups of companies, looking to assist other Imperial forces and attaching themselves to whatever Imperial crusade is going on at any given time.
• "The Knights Errant" is also the official name for the eight founding members of the Grey Knights .
• Ace Attorney : The second case of the fangame Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Conflict of Interest features Sir Gallante, a vigilante who fancies himself one of these crossed with a Black Knight . He even has a simple "Slay the evil, protect the innocent " Code of Honor . In reality, he's more of a vicious serial murderer, the only justification for his gruesome attacks being that all his victims were involved with the local organized crime syndicate. Most of the case revolves around figuring out and proving his true identity. The aforementioned code is ultimately what allows for his defeat. There's not enough evidence to convict him, but by reminding him of his principles, he realizes that evading the law any longer will result in someone else being convicted for his crimes, after which he confesses to everything.
• The Warden, who goes where they must and where they are most needed.
• The Witch Hunt DLC for Dragon Age: Origins can end with the Warden (the Knight Errant) and Morrigan (the Damsel Errant ) stepping through the Eluvian, beyond the Fade and into the unknown.
• Warden Blackwall in Dragon Age: Inquisition . He has spent years wandering Thedas protecting the innocent, "conscripting" villagers to train them to fight bandits, and of course fighting random darkspawn. He's actually a wanted criminal impersonating the deceased Blackwall throwing himself into the Grey Wardens' ideal of heroism to atone for his past.
• From the series' backstory, the ancient Yokudan ( Precursors of the Redguards) hero Frandar Hunding was one in his youth. One of the legendary Ansei , or "Sword Saints", he traveled Yokuda slaying all manner of men and monsters, while testing his skills in 90 duels. He was never once defeated, leading him to believe that he was invincible, so he retired to Mount Hattu and wrote the Book of Circles to pass along his insights. (He would later be called back into service, proving to be an extremely competent Frontline General .)
• In Oblivion , after performing a service for the city of Leyawiin, you and a jovial NPC receive this title.
• Final Fantasy XIV : Solkzagyl used to be a member of the order in Ul'dah, a group of Paladins dedicated to the Sultana. He broke away from the order to wander throughout Eorzea and help people in need.
• A Light Side Player Character in Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords can be this, as they visit various planets righting wrongs after being exiled from the Order following the Mandalorian Wars.
• Kingdom Hearts gave us Sora, who constantly travels from world to world, never stopping or staying very long, righting whatever wrongs he happens to come across along the way, from finding lost dogs to toppling local tyrants. He might have a few too many friends to count as a truly classical example, but 90% of them are the "leave them behind when you leave town" variety. By Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance] , it's earned him an official knighting by then-Princess Minnie.
• Langrisser : Erwin's personal theme is the titular Knight Errant, traveling through El Sallia in his quest (which depends on which story path he is following).
• Samara, an asari party member, is a Justicar, a sort of vigilante warrior monk. According to her "the closest human equivalent would be a knight errant, with perhaps a bit of samurai".
• Paragon Shepard can spend most of their time travelling the galaxy and selflessly going out of the way to put right any wrong they encounter.
• In the interactive romance novel Moonrise , Ishara fulfills this trope to indulge her Chronic Hero Syndrome and her enjoyment of Walking the Earth .
• Overwatch : The supplementary comic "Dragon Slayer" states that, after the fall of Overwatch, Reinhardt became this, wandering Europe with his "squire" Brigette to fight evil and help the suffering.
• Super Robot Wars : Sanger Zonvolt, the Sword That Smites Evil who will show up whenever evil arises. And will do anything to protect his girl, namely Sophia Nate.
• Unicorn Overlord has Laurent, who introduces himself as a knight errant and helps the party out with a few liberation missions throughout Cornia. He's actually Renault, having taken on a secret identity to atone for the awful things he did for Zenoira while under Mind Control . He eventually gives up the act and joins the party as himself.
• Warframe : The Tenno themselves have many shades of this, as well as related tropes such as Rōnin . They were originally the elite warrior caste of the Orokin Empire, but they often had no immediate masters and instead did whatever their honor demanded of them. By the time of the game, the Orokin Empire is long dead ( because the Tenno killed them all for being evil bastards ), so the Tenno and the Lotus spend most of their time wandering the Origin System helping out the little people caught between the warring factions.
• The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt : The Blood And Wine expansion features Knights-Errant in Toussaint, who wander the duchy taking on bandits and monsters for the duchess. Geralt himself can technically be considered one as well, especially if the player completes the "Knight For Hire" questline.
• In Xenoblade Chronicles 2 , Perceval, an optional rare Blade , takes it upon himself to render justice unto those who abuse the innocent. His Driver and the rest of the party try to reign him in from working alone to this end, to limited success. It's revealed in his personal sidequest that, under his previous Driver, he was a remorseless assassin known as the Heartless Judge . Of course, given that Blades lose all memories of any of their previous incarnations upon resonating with a new Driver , this isn't an indictment on who Perceval is now. Perceval: ...There is evil in this world which the law is not equipped to deal with. Many shed tears and even blood suffering in its shadow. When a new lease on life was given to me... I felt a duty to use my power to help uplift the downtrodden. As if it were the reason for my existence: to punish all evil that lurks in this world.
• Ys : Adol Christin certainly fits the bill. He's a Master Swordsman who wanders the globe, helping out the locals of the regions he visits and defeating ancient demons, monsters, and death machines along the way. Numerous women have Ship Tease with him, but he usually doesn't seem to return their feelings, with each game ending with him setting off for a new adventure alongside Dogi, his only constant traveling companion. He also wore knightly armor in the earlier games, though later installments moved away from the armored look.
• Knights of All Realms : Although it breaks the "loner" rule, this trope is the premise the story, which follows a band of knights who serve no lord and help all peoples.
• The Green Knight : Richard fits every characteristic of the trope, wandering from village to village and helping people with their fairy problem , with his chivalrous code often gets him into trouble.
• Nwain : Nwain rides her trusty wolf-antelope into Darmok and solves the town's monster problem . She leaves town and moves on to defeat a giant owl by blinding it with her pants .
• Adventure Time : Finn and Jake are a rather absurdist take on this trope. Although they do have a home base that they return to frequently, they are otherwise traveling warriors who beat up baddies and save innocent villagers. Finn even for the first few seasons treats Princess Bubblegum like his designated lady, as though he was a knight in a courtly romance.
• Samurai Jack : The titular hero is an homage to this trope, as throughout his journey to prevent the Bad Future from happening again, he helps the weak and the innocent , brings justice against evil-doers, and battles the nefarious Aku . Also, The Hero is technically a Rōnin , having no master while still following the samurai's honorable code.

Elden Ring: How To Get The Raging Wolf Armor Set

Quick links, retrieve rya's necklace, seek out volcano manor, join the covenant & complete quests, travel into leyndell, royal capital, build suggestions.

The Raging Wolf Set is medium-weight armor. When obtained, it gives the player additional protection and various resistances against any kind of damage inflicted on the player. Like any armor set in Elden Ring , the Raging Wolf Armor Set consists of leg armor, gauntlets, chest armor, and a helm. Players will need to maneuver through Volcano Manor and join their covenant while completing a few tasks along the way.

Elden Ring: Nepheli Loux Questline - Complete Walkthrough

The armor set was formerly worn by Vargram the Bloody Wolf , "one of the first Tarnished to visit the Roundtable Hold." If players want to acquire the set, they will need to avoid defeating Maliketh in Crumbling Farum Azula as well as Rykard before finding the armor. Additionally, players will need to refrain from killing Knight Bernahl , who is an NPC that is imperative to the quest to get the armor set.

Updated by Chad Thesen on March 20th, 2024: This article has been updated for the purpose of adding additional information to enhance the navigation experience of readers. New information that has been added includes a new section of information covering builds that work well with this armor set, a new way of presenting links for guiding readers, and updated images for a better reading experience.

Go to the area of Liurnia shown above and speak to the NPC known as Rya. Rya can be found complaining about a thuggish thief that stole her precious necklace -- initiating a conversation with her will allow players to help her find it by tracking down the thief . Travel to Boilprawn Shack , which is northwest of where Rya and the telescope are located.

The NPC who stole the necklace is outside the Shack, sitting on the ground. He will sell you the necklace for a cheap price. Go back to Rya and give her the necklace. She will thank you and ask the player if they'd like to join the guild at Volcano Manor -- answer yes.

Elden Ring: 15 Best Strength Scaling Weapons

Players will need to make the long, arduous trip to reach Altus Plateau . Whether taking the Grand Lift of Dectus or navigating the perilous Ruin-Strewn Precipice , Rya can be found waiting for you not far from either location -- by the top of the Lift or near Lux Ruins , depending on how you arrive in Altus Plateau. Rya will offer to make it easier to get to Volcano Manor by taking the player there -- answer yes.

There's an alternate path to reach Volcano Manor and Altus Plateau -- through the Abductor Virgin at the base of Raya Lucaria Academy 's waterwheel -- and while this route is valuable to explore, seeking out Rya in Altus is by far a less bumpy ride.

Inside the manor, take a left to find two NPCs. Lady Tanith , the woman, will be sitting in a chair. Speak to her -- she will ask if the player wants to join the manor. Answer yes. Tanith will hand the player a key to another room within the manor. In the room right of where Tanith is located, there's a large table and a letter on the corner of it -- pick it up . Taking the letter will initiate a quest line imperative to acquiring the Raging Wolf Armor . Next to the table, Knight Bernahl will be sitting in a nearby chair.

If players have already killed Knight Bernahl, they will not be able to progress through the quest and thus will be unable to acquire the Raging Wolf armor set. It is important to keep him alive.

Speak to Tanith once again, and she will inform the player that they have a task. Open the map, and a red dot will appear northeast of the manor and far off to the side, this is where a task is. Keep in mind, the player will need to accomplish two tasks -- before and after each, have a conversation with Knight Bernahl. Travel to this location and defeat the NPC that awaits.

After fulfilling this task, head back to Volcano Manor. Tanith will reward the player, and another letter will spawn on the same table where the other letter was located. Pick it up to initiate another quest. Complete this task for the covenant and then speak to Knight Bernahl . He will give the player a letter -- the next red dot on the map will lead players to the Raging Wolf Armor .

The dot will appear in the Capital City -- players should have at least a couple of Great Runes before heading to this area. Players should try to reach the Fortified Manor , First Floor's exact location. Go into the dimly lit building -- on the floor in the center of the room, there's a sign where you can invade . Players will meet with two NPCs they'll need to fight. This battle can be fairly difficult, even with Knight Bernahl's extra help. Upon defeating both NPCs, players will be rewarded with the Raging Wolf Armor Set.

Outfit Alterations

If players don't like the cape, they can remove it by altering the appearance of the chest piece. Head to the Church of Vows in Liurnia, and you'll find a chest near a Miriel, Pastor of Vows. Inside, players will find the Golden Tailoring Tools . Afterward, players can go to any site of grace and have the cape removed. Thankfully, if the player changes their mind, they can always alternate between armor variations and put the cape back on, which works for many armor sets in Elden Ring.

There are plenty of ways you can build a character in Elden Ring, almost all of which rely on more than focusing on just 1 stat. Vigor is a good all-rounder to survive being killed with 1 hit and is something you should always invest some points into to ensure you have room for error to make use of your flasks before getting back into the thick of things. Besides this universally beneficial stat, you should focus on builds that focus on raising particular stats over all the others.

Strength & Intelligence

Making the best Strength & Intelligence build will focus more on what weapons, talismans, and sorceries you make use of. This means it is an ideal build to try with this armor set as The Raging Wolf armor is not an extremely heavy armor that will grant you a solid range of resistances for when something does hit you. While Intelligence offers range, a build that combines it with Strength will have enemies getting closer than you may like — especially for some of your best follow-up attacks.

Blasphemous Blade Build

Once you have gone through the task of obtaining the Blasphemous Blade , you will be able to make use of numerous builds that revolve around having a high amount of Faith. This will be present in both various Faith builds , as well as the best Strength & Faith build in Elden Ring. The Blasphemous Blade lets you deal out damage while healing any damage you may have lost, but you will also need to be able to roll out of harm's way. When you do get hit, you will be able to get back up on your feet and aggressively get back into engaging your opponent to heal back up.

If the build suggestions above are something you found helpful, you may be interested in where you may be able to get your hands on some of the key items to pull them off. You should check how you can obtain the Dark Moon Greatsword , and if you enjoy having a balance of melee and sorceries, be sure to look into making a build for the Sword of Night and Flame .
