The '''Knight Aberrant''' ('''Mad Knight''' or '''Axe Knight''' in earlier translations) is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Introduced in the original ''[[Dragon Quest]]'', it is a bulky monster donned in knightly armour.
The '''Knight aberrant''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}, introduced in the original {{Dragon Quest}}.
 
It is an axe-wielding, armor-clad knight capable of putting enemies to {{Sleep}} with its [[Snooze|magic]].


==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
Wearing heavy, bulky armor and equipped with an axe and usually a shield, the knight is as impressive a physical force as its appearance lets on. In the original NES version of ''Dragon Quest'' it was armed only with an axe and faced to the right, likely to differentiate it some from related monsters.
'''Knight aberrants''' are {{Humanoid}} knights armored from head to top in grey and dark purple armor with lavender sabatons, gauntlets, a lavender gem on their belts, and a tall lavender plume on their helmets.
They wield axes in their right hands and a round shield in the same color as the armour with gold in the center, though in some games they forgo using their shields. Compared to their blue-armored brothers, the Knight aberrant are deadlier due to their ability to cast '''[[Snooze]]''' in battle instead of [[Fizzle]].


The knight has been a boss in the majority of its appearances, a role it fills well.

Likely to be encountered after players confront the [[green dragon]], and lacking the music vulnerability of the [[golem]], it can be considered the strongest boss in the original ''Dragon Quest'', ousted only by the obviously stronger final boss, the [[Dragonlord]].

An Axe knight appears in Episode 23 "Trojan Dragon".  It appeared in a cave guarding both the [[Flame sword]] and the [[Silver shield]], only to lose both of them to Captain N.  Axe knight is the only other character besides the [[Dragonlord]] and [[Blue dragon]] that appeared in the series.
An Axe knight appears in Episode 23 "Trojan Dragon".  It appeared in a cave guarding both the [[Fire blade|Flame sword]] and the [[Silver shield]], only to lose both of them to Captain N.  Axe knight is the only other character besides the [[Dragonlord]], [[Blue dragon]] and [[Slime]]s that appeared in the series. Axe knight is immune to the Zapper, while dodged due to Kevin's use of the pause button on his Power Pad.
 
==Etymology==
''Aberrant'' is a synonym for deviant, meaning a person or thing that deviates from what is normal and accepted.
 
==Trivia==
*The {{MFamilies}}'s field notes from {{Dragon Quest Heroes II}} are partially incorrect when they refer to the knight aberrant miniboss in {{Dragon Quest}}. The {{MFamilies}} is guarding [[Erdrick's Armour]], not [[Erdrick's Sword]].
