An armos knight often resembles a hylian warrior made of stone. Source Much like the more common armos, an armos knight appears indistinguishable from a stone statue, and in fact is comprised almost entirely of stone animated by magic. As a nonliving sentry, it remains dormant wherever its master or its creator has placed it. In many cases, an armos knight will stay on-guard for centuries or longer, remaining as motionless as the stone statue it resembles. Aggressive Sentry. An armos knight is specifically designed to resemble a humanoid warrior, and wields stone weaponry as long-lasting and enduring as its body. When a living creature enters the area guarded by the armos knight, or dares to touch it directly, the knight springs to life with the sole intent to slay any and all invaders. Although it will chase down fleeing invaders over a potentially long distance, it never willingly leaves the area it intends to guard. Disguised Form. An armos knight is often hidden among inanimate humanoid statues which are indistinguishable from them. Constructed Nature. An armos knight doesn't require air, food, drink, or sleep.
