Characteristics

Despite their names, the dark lancers resemble metal slime knights more than dark slime knights, this is because the slime they are riding is a metal slime. The armor of this slime knight is more complex in comparison with the others and consists in a fullbody vermilion armor with mallow tight pants, the helmet has two horns at each side of the head and the hair coming out of it is tangerine. This slime knight wields a silver shield with an engraved bird-like symbol on it and also wields a jousting spear (being the first slime knight who doesn't wield a sword) aslo made of silver and with a tangerine cloth hanging off the extreme of it.
