The '''Fright knight''' is a recurring monster in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest VII}}. It is a heavily armoured skeleton warrior that wields a sword and shield in battle.

==Characteristics==

Fright knights are large hellish [[Undead family|skeletal]] soldiers adorned in massive teal and magenta armour, wielding a wicked giant sword in battle and a round buckler in the other. These undead fiends are capable of strategically saving their strength for the right time to strike, unleashing their brutal hits when their enemies are at their weakest. The knights also know how to unleash freezing attacks with both their breath and spells, strong enough to cause a serious threat. They can also support their allies by bringing them back from the dead with '''Zing'''.

Fright knight first could be faced as a boss in several levels, including Battle Arena: Season 2, Term 2. Its special move is Bitter Blizzard, a powerful ice breath which it unleashes after a 10-second countdown unless it is defeated or interrupted first. It would typically be assisted by other undead monsters, including [[Mummy|Mummies]] and [[Skeleton soldier]]s.
