Most games based on this mythology adapts the One Thousand and One Nights tale.
Grail Knights who have been raised from the dead as formidable undead warriors, said to surpass even the mightiest Vampire Blood Knights.
A common character class / archetype in role-playing games and fantasy. They are often less chivalric than your average Knight-errant, generally being depicted as either archetypal villains (such as a Dark Lord), or troubled and ruthless anti-heroes.
The greatest of Khorne's Daemons, each one a near-unrivalled master of melee combat possessed of endless ferocity.
A fallen knightly champion (often a Paladin) who has returned as an undead. Not to be confused with Black Knight (though a character can certainly be both). Most commonly seen in High Fantasy roleplaying settings like Dungeons and Dragons and WarCraft.
The very greatest of all of Bretonnia's knightly warriors, so named because they have each supped from the Grail and been endowed with the Lady's blessings over and above what any other Bretonnian knight receives.
The concept of affecting the universe through supernatural methods, breaking the fundamental laws of science.
A weapon that has been forged and/or imbued with mystical energy, magic, or some other supernatural force. It is often required to solve a specific puzzle, or vanquish an impossible foe.
From Beat-em-ups to fighting games to modern FPS, one dude hitting another has made an enjoyable pastime.
Though a somewhat less common archetype than black knights, red-armored knights still show up now and again in Fantasy works and elsewhere. Like Black Knights, they are often (though not always), portrayed as malevolent.
Slashing weapons are designed to cut and slice rather than causing blunt trauma. Examples include swords, axes, claws, naginatas, or even whips.
Angelic warriors created by Sigmar to fight against the myriad forces of Chaos, Death, and Destruction.
In multiple works of fiction, Vampires are depicted as knights clad in (usually black or red), sinister armor. In works of fiction with multiple types of vampires or undead, Vampire Knights are usually shown to be the elite.
Humans aligned with Chaos, they are one of the chief minions of the four Daemon gods in Warhammer Fantasy and Age of Sigmar, each one being larger, stronger, and deadlier than a mere mortal.
Knights in white or shiny silver armor. The term "White Knight" is often used to denote an exceptionally noble or chivalrous individual, synonymous with the similar descriptor of "Knight in Shining Armor". Despite this, not all White Knights in fiction are heroes...
