Somewhere, at some point, a man—unaware of his destiny—became the first Light Knight. In a moment of peril, when the darkness seemed overwhelming, he unknowingly awakened a latent power, a force granted only to those who, in their darkest hour, possess the will to harness it.
On the brink of collapse, his body broken, his spirit crushed, he felt the pull of an unseen presence—a whisper of hope. Despite the agony wracking his body, each movement a struggle, a burning determination surged through him. The pain was excruciating, but nothing mattered more than completing his mission.
In a blur, as if guided by an unknown strength, he moved with grace and precision, his armor and weapons now weightless. His body was infused with an otherworldly agility. Strikes landed with unimaginable force, as though his every action transcended the limits of reality.
When the battle ended, the power ebbed, leaving him near death—exhausted, immobile, and unsure if he would ever experience it again. He came to realize that this incredible strength had become a fleeting gift. His quest from that day forward was to reclaim this lost power, setting the path for the legendary Light Knights—warriors who unlock extraordinary potential in moments of desperation and struggle to master it.
The Light Knight is a versatile and agile warrior who uses their mastery over gravity and an innate connection to an otherworldly force to become a nearly unstoppable force on the battlefield. They blend incredible speed, unyielding resilience, and superior weapon control to outmaneuver and overpower their enemies, even when pushed to their physical limits.
