Black Undead Knight

Black Undead Knight is a class of undead warrior that can be created through certain abilities.

Profile
Black undead knights are a possible rank up from black skeletons. These can develop self awareness if they are active for long periods of time.

Appearance
The Black Undead Knight stands taller than any common Ogre at about three meters tall. It has eight arms. The usual pair at the shoulders and then another set below them. The other two sets are behind the previous two sets. Its eye sockets are empty with the usual luminous orbs in the place of its eyes, colored a deep red similar to blood. From its joints emanates a black sinister aura that wraps around its entire body.

Each of them have something like skin that fills in the gaps of its joints. Moreover, it has muscles and its bones are quite thick, making it far more resistant to smashing. As if its corporeal cushion is not enough, there is still another layer of defense in the form of a dark aura that is shrouded over its entire body.This aura also serves as its specific defense against the sunlight.

Ability
Unlike the Commander version, the Black Undead Knight doesn’t have any summoning type ability. But on their own, they display quite the astounding combat capability.

With the dark aura, the Black Undead Knight is no longer destroyed by the sunlight alone. Of course it is still weakened by the sunlight, but it won’t ever perish from it.

In the category of strength, the Black Undead Knight can take on five of my created Ogres at the same time. If it’s pitted against the average Black Skeletons, even a dozen of them don’t seem to be able to match its might.

This is mostly due to a special feature of its body. The Black Undead Knight has two well-supported skulls that provides it with a very wide field of view, negating most of the usual blind spots.

Furthermore, its skillful handling of its own biological weaponry makes it even more deadly. In seven of its eight hands, the Black Undead Knight wields various weaponry.

These include:

[Fishbone Greatsword]

[Executioner Greataxe]

[Crusher Morningstar]

[Right Tower Shield]

[Left Tower Shield]

[Scorpion Pike]

[Composite Longbow]

Because the Black Undead Knight is basically an elite Black Skeleton Knight, they lack the training to serve in an officer’s role. Their usability is rather good because the intelligence that they have is slowly increased the longer they are active. With two skulls instead of just one, the level of combat awareness is quite high. These Black Undead Knights are certainly what Minokichi-kun will be training with when I’m not present.

Those with higher intelligence are given marks on their skulls and are given the nickname [Scarface].
