==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
Given mobility by sheer malevolence, Knight errants are blue bruisers in the service of the [[Dragonlord]]. Despite their similarities to the [[Restless armor]], the sheer amount of hatred packed into their mail classifies them as members of the [[Demon family]] rather than [[Material family|material]].

Despite official illustrations showing the monster wielding an axe and a shield, none of the errant's sprites reflect this. Instead, the knights arm up as they change color and gain new nomenclature.
