Haakon the Knight

Summary
A hardworking farm boy, Haakon longed to protect the kingdom as a Knight. When he stumbled across the magic sword of the legendary Sir Sigurd, he saw his chance to fulfil his dreams and began his journey toward knighthood.

The Story of Haakon
Haakon was a simple farmer until a fateful encounter with a ferocious troll who attacked his homestead. Brave and full of guile, Haakon maneuvered the fiend into the forest, where he discovered a legendary sword and shield. Wounded and weak, he swung at the troll and saw the spirit of a Royal Knight emerge from the sword and strike down the monster.

News of Haakon's deed spread to the King who summoned this "Hawk" to his castle. And when the King noticed Haakon's sword and shield, he explained that they once belonged to the fallen ROYAL KNIGHT SIGURD. Haakon confessed that it was the spirit of Sir Sigurd that helped him overcome the troll.

Intrigued by his story and certain that there was a mystical air surrounding the farmer, the King knighted Haakon and consigned him to the KNIGHTS' TRAINING CAMP for training.

Years later, Sir Hawk - along with the help of his trusted spiritual companion, Sir Sigurd - saved a caravan of travelers from a horde of goblin raiders. Spark, having observed Sir Hawk for some time was of his potential deeds and annointed him a Champion.

Information


Class: Knight
 * Ambushed by a Troll, Haakon found the sword and shield of the Legendary Knight Sigurd. Bound together they defeated the Troll and Haakon was Knighted.

Archetype: Defender
 * The Defender thrives when surrounded due to their superior defensive counter attacks and sword training allowing them the chance to spawn “ghost swords.” Fast damaging foes and high damage ranged opponents tend to challenge the Defender. Channeling the spirit of Sir Sigurd makes Haakon a well-rounded and formidable opponent.

Weapon: Knight’s Sword
 * Adept in sword and shield combat, when Haakon teams up with the spiritual powers of Sir Sigurd they are nearly unstoppable.

Personality:
 * Skilled but untrained
 * Feels like an impostor due to his peasant background and wrestles with his discomfort in his new “Royal” skin
 * May appear schizophrenic due to his relationship with Sigurd
