The Knight Aberrant (Mad Knight or Axe Knight in earlier translations) is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in the original Dragon Quest, it is a bulky monster donned in knightly armour.
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.
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.
