Personality: Knight Wolf is a lone wanderer by nature. But having met his companion, Tudor, he took on the role of being the proactive and socializing person of the two, finding that Tudor was terribly socially awkward. As such, he had become outspoken by trade. Despite the armor he wears and his sword, Knight Wolf is a pacifist. Having never willingly drawn blood of another creature, he tends to talk his way out of problems rather than fight. He can be imposing when he wants to be, but he prefers people appreciate him over anything else. Unfortunately, with his terrible luck in getting appreciation, he is overly self-doubtful.

Casual Outfit:
Long Sleeve Shirt : He wears a long-sleeved cream shirt and a green vest with a cross-hatched collar.

Slacks : Knight Wolf wears a pair of brown slacks.

Adventuring Outfit:

Armor: Knight Wolf wears a set of steel armor consisting of a cuirass, groin guard, leg guards, arm guards, paw guards, spaulders, and hip guards. He also wears chain armor underneath the full set of armor.

Cape : Knight Wolf dons an emerald green cape with a golden lion on the back. He has a clasp as his cape fastener. It dons his emblem on it.

Ebony Blade: A cursed sword that is bound to Knight Wolf. Anyone who attempts to wield the sword that has willingly drawn the blood of another creature will experience a horrendous nightmare for the span of fifteen seconds or until the sword is released. Given Knight Wolf's pacifistic nature, and morally clean hands, the sword bound itself to him and prevents him from enacting violence on others.

Strengths:

Ebony Blade - Though the Ebony Blade makes the wielder unable to cause physical harm to another person, it has the capability to increase and focus one's emotions onto other people. While Knight Wolf was able to do this beforehand, with tutoring from Tudor, the sword made it more possible to control his emotions. Another perk of the ebony blade is its deterrent for demonic entities.

Defensive Fighter - Knight Wolf never attacks first, and never tries to harm someone. His fighting style is that of a deflecting, defensive maneuver that is meant to incapacitate people without harming them.

Charisma - Knight Wolf has remarkable charisma. With a few magical augmentations from potions given to him, along with the cursed ebony blade, and his reputation with being Tudor's ally, Knight Wolf has an impossibly high charisma to him. He's capable of finding the right words to say for almost any situation and is very good at trickery when needed.

Teddy Bear - Knight Wolf is big and soft, much like a Teddy Bear. Tudor often finds himself hugging Knight Wolf whenever either of them are upset, and for anyone who takes the time to know Knight Wolf, they will find a therapeutic effect is involved with embracing his softness.

Endurance - Given Knight Wolf's fighting style, he's learned to take a beating. He has a high pain tolerance, due to being a werewolf, and has trained his body to withstand many magical and nonmagical attacks. Tied to this is his natural healing capabilities. Most wounds heal almost immediately, depending on how deep they are. This sort of healing, however, can become exhausting for him if done in rapid succession. If healing too many wounds at once, he becomes groggy and acts as if drunken for several hours.

Dragon Form - As much a strength as it is a weakness, Knight Wolf has a "dragon form". Though he can only obtain this form while in the "cursed cave of treasure", he is able to transform into a 145 ft., green water dragon with an anthropomorphic body. Having attained this form has given Knight Wolf three abilities: "Golden Touch" "Touch of the Porcine", and "Golden Longevity". Much like the dragon form, both Golden Touch and Touch of the Porcine have a limitation on their usability. (Limited to when Knight Wolf is in the "cursed cave of treasure")

Golden Touch - On command, Knight Wolf, when touching a creature that is holding stolen treasure from Knight Wolf's Hoard, can solidify, shrink, and mold a person into a gold trinket of approximately the same mass as their organic body parts. Given Knight Wolf's nature, he would tend to shrink them down and inflate them into golden balloon versions of themselves. Anyone who is fully affected by this touch will also become cursed treasure. (Limited to when someone is knowingly holding stolen treasure from the "cursed cave of treasure")

Touch of the Porcine - On command, Knight Wolf, when touching a creature that is holding stolen treasure from Knight Wolf's Hoard, can initiated a transformation of the creature into a pig. The creature retains all its memories and personality but will be unable to speak and will be stuck as a pig until changed back by Knight Wolf or strong magic. (Limited to when someone is knowingly holding stolen treasure from the "cursed cave of treasure")

Golden Longevity - While in dragon form, Knight Wolf grows an appetite for gold. The more gold Knight Wolf eats, the longer his lifespan becomes.

Weaknesses:

Ebony Blade - The bane and the boon for Knight Wolf, the Ebony Blade is a cursed object that binds to the first person who touches it that meets its requirements for ownership. In this case, the person must have never willingly drawn blood of another living creature. Knight Wolf was the first, and only, person to ever touch the blade. Given the sword has a "legendary status" many people ahve tried but would experience horrible nightmares. Knight Wolf tried to remove the blade several times, but its binding to him meant it would never leave his side. Since he is always in direct contact with it, he can never willingly harm another creature with intent to draw blood, or else the sword will enact its nightmare on him.

Self Doubt - Having grown up through his teen years without parents, and donning the guise of a werewolf, Knight Wolf never grew the self confidence he needed to socialize with people. While he is the most social of himself and Tudor, he still finds difficulty when he becomes the center of attention, as most cases of this "attention" involve ridicule toward him for being a "fake knight".

Popularity - While people know that Tudor has a "sidekick", they do not know that Knight Wolf is the more proactive of the two. That aside, a lot of Knight Wolf's heroics go unnoticed and, much to Tudor's chagrin, get credited to Tudor instead. While Tudor has made several attempts to give Knight Wolf the accolades he deserves, most of his plans have backfired, causing Knight Wolf to gain a popularity of being a lying, conniving charlatan who takes credit for other people's heroics just to get a name for himself. In a severe twist of irony, Knight Wolf's real heroics are overlooked due to his being Tudor's companion, and are downplayed even more due to his undeserved status as a charlatan, and are downplayed even more due to people thinking that he was taking credit for other people's heroics. It is a vicious cycle that Knight Wolf cannot get out of.

Stubbornness - Knight Wolf is stubborn. He has his beliefs and holds to them firmly. He wants so desperately for people to treat him fairly that he puts the standards for himself very high. He accepts no handouts from people and always tries to find ways to give recompense to people who have shown him kindness, even if they did it on their own whims. He always feels he has to earn kindness and respect and tries too hard to earn it. He ends up overlooking the respect he gets from Tudor and the people who truly know the hero Knight Wolf is.

Dragon Form - Initially, when Knight Wolf became a dragon, he gained a cursed "dragon Seal" on his back that resembles that of his own emblem. This seal has marked him as the guardian of a hoard of magical treasure belonging to a long-dead wizard. Whenever he enters the cave of this cursed treasure hoard, he spontaneously becomes a giant, green dragon with a dumbed-down intelligence remeniscent of a dog. The initial encounter made him completely forget who he was and forced him to think he was a dragon, whose soul purpose was to protect the hoard. This enacted a chain of events in which Tudor tried to save Knight Wolf from his fate as a giant, dumb dragon but, for a long while, had just left Knight Wolf to this fate. Having been a dragon for so long, Knight Wolf unwittingly ate a lot of the gold in the hoard that increased his longevity... so he could continue to defend the hoard for several more years. Knight Wolf does not enjoy being in this dragon form. Though, while in his dragon form, he feels completely fine and normal, he actually has no ability to think cognitively or on the level at which he does when his regular self. While he gains the ability to turn creatures into gold or pigs, and can actively locate any stolen treasure, the cursed seal causes him to (unwittingly) turn people into either gold or pigs if they happen to willingly be holding a stolen piece of treasure from his haord.

Emotional Outrage - When Knight Wolf is truly threatened, his emotions start to take hold and cause people in the area to experience the same emotion he experiences. In most cases, this is anger or fear, which causes mass hysteria that inevitably backfires onto Knight Wolf.

Athleticism - Knight Wolf is fat. While he's fine with how he is, he knows he is not fast. He is also not flexible. If he runs, he cannot run for long, and will often walk to places to get things done.

Trivia:

- Knight Wolf's weight was gained artificially from a potion an alchemist gave him that was supposed to increase his "charisma" but, in turn, just increased his appetite and slowly made him fatter. He has not been able to get rid of the fat ever since.

- Knight Wolf does not know how much gold he ate as a dragon, but with the "Golden Longevity", his longevity has increased to approximately 800 years as of this date.

- Knight Wolf finds that the one person he truly respects is Tudor. His respect for Tudor is not as everyone else's is. Rather than respecting Tudor as a hero, Knight Wolf considers Tudor to be his nearest and dearest friend.

- On several separate occasions, Knight Wolf has been transformed into strange things. On many occasions, he gets turned into a pig due to "literal form" magic, which transforms someone into a creature that suits their personality. Due to Knight Wolf being fat and loving food, Knight Wolf has become a pig.

- When Knight Wolf entered a dungeon, he activated a trap that made him experience the "end of his adventure" in numerous instances. While all these "dead ends" were in his mind, he experienced them all as if they really happened. A few instances were him being transformed into something permanently, of which some examples are: Marionettes, statues, goo, chests, slimes, cursed amulets, and even an imaginary friend. When Knight Wolf woke up from this stupor, he went about life normally and found he stumbled upon each of these instances again. With the knowledge from the trap, he managed to avoid the untimely ends.

Story:

In his young teen years, Knight Wolf was attacked by a werewolf and, subsequently, turned into a werewolf. Unlike other victims, Knight Wolf was fortunate enough that the change did not take away his humanity. Having lost his parents from an unfortunately timed demon attack, shortly after he became a werewolf, Knight Wolf was kicked out of his home. With nowhere to go, he decided to take shelter under a large tree behind the butcher's place. Given the butcher would throw out scrap food every night, he had a source of food to eat. Given he had a lot of fur, the winter time was no problem for him either. He truly had no idea where to go in life, nor did he have the courage to get out of his comfort zone, so he stayed under that tree for several years, doing his best to not cause problems for anyone.

The blacksmith of the village, named Richard, happened upon Knight Wolf and immediately took a liking to the person. Finding out Knight Wolf could speak, he offered a home to Knight Wolf. However, Knight Wolf refused, due to his social anxieties. Richard then offered for Knight Wolf to at least come by his work station some time.

Having to gum up the courage, Knight Wolf finally made a trip to the blacksmith's hut, only to find that the man was currently doing business for a few members of the Royal Guards of Viskel City (The largest city in the valley Knight Wolf lived in). Being amazed by the shiny armor and the swords these supposed knights carried, Knight Wolf inquired about them and soon decided he wanted to become a knight like they were.

Richard was skeptical at first, but seeing that the werewolf was wanting to become something chivalrous, he wanted to be supportive on that matter, especially if it meant he'd get more business.

Several days passed, and Knight Wolf returned with a bag of coins, stating that he had worked in a nearby field to get money. He had to beg to be able to work, but the land owner finally allowed him to, giving him 1 copper per day. Richard knew that 1 copper was not how much a worker would usually get paid and, in his frustration, decided he would get more money for Knight Wolf from the landowner, finding the landowner was descriminating against Knight Wolf.

Returning with no luck on getting more wages for Knight Wolf, Richard offered one of his swords to Knight Wolf as compensation, but the werewolf stubbornly declined, saying he felt he needed to work for it. So, Richard came up with the idea of having Knight Wolf "quest" for him, starting with a simple task of getting a mining town back in business, as the mines were unaccessible. He threw in rations, travel gear, and a sword, saying that Knight Wolf can keep whatever supplies he is given.

Knight Wolf accepts, and is questioned shortly after on what his name was. He stated his intent and both Knight Wolf and Richard agreed to call him "Knight Wolf", since Richard believed he would be a great knight some day.

With a few adventures in way, due to Richard's "employment" of Knight Wolf, Knight Wolf accidentally defeated a demon, thusly saving someone's life. This took to the ear of the great hero, Tudor, who wanted to meet Knight Wolf, as the stories said that Knight Wolf single-handedly took down a demon, something no mortal could properly do.


Growing up as a teenager werewolf, Knight Wolf had difficulty with his social skills, as both his parents were killed by a demon attack and he was kicked out of his home.

Upon becoming an adult, he became employed by the blacksmith, Richard, to go on quests/adventures that the blacksmith said was "work" but was secretly to help Knight Wolf gain a sense of self-worth.

With these adventures under Knight Wolf's belt, he gained a black, cursed sword, called the Ebony Blade, from a dragon he befriended in a cave. He then gained the reputation of defeating a demon, though it was on accident. Word spread and Tudor, the legendary hero, heard of his heroics and immediately saught to learn about Knight Wolf.

The two got off on the wrong foot, and Knight Wolf felt he would never redeem himself, but was unfortunate enough to find his employer was captured by a demon. Tudor, upon properly meeting Knight Wolf, felt that Knight Wolf was completely incapabale of fighting off a demon and said for Knight Wolf to stay in town where it was safe. Knight Wolf was stubborn and said otherwise and proved his "strength" in a contest that he tricked Tudor into. He won against Tudor and, after being scolded by Tudor for using wordplay to win the contest, Knight Wolf set off on his own to find Richard.

He defended himself against demons upon finding Richard's severely beaten figure. He fended them off for as long as he could before enacting a plan to remove both demons from the vicinity. Tudor came shortly after Knight Wolf collapsed and took him and Richard back to town to recover.

Since then, Knight Wolf has gained the admiration of Tudor for his skills in wordplay and decided to become Knight Wolf's partner.
