Black Knight

Background

Legend has it that the first Black Knight was the son of Arthur, sired before he became King of his Realm. The Black Knight had a falling-out with his father, and left the Realm to wander the world. After braving The Depths, he returned to Arthur’s court a changed man. On that day, he swore to forever fight by Arthur’s side. Those who join the Black Knights swear an oath to follow Arthur into battle, no matter where it takes them. They prefer to wear black clothing, a signal to the enemy that death is coming.

Fianna

Background

The Fianna were founded by one of the great leaders of the Tuatha Dé Danann: Fionn mac Cumhaill. This class has a very special ability, the Diord Fionn (Fionn’s war-cry), which they can use before and during battles. The mottos of this class are “Purity of our hearts, Strength of our limbs, and Deeds to match our words.” Between their war-cry and additional movement speed, they are glad to wear less heavy armor than many of their counterparts.

Mjölnir

Background

The Mjölnir, and the first “true” hammer, were born from the collision of the two moons. New Mjölnir are entrusted with a tiny fragment from that collision, which is then used by crafters to imbue into their iconic weapon. Mjölnir are reputed to focus on causing destruction rather than on the more protective aspects of their occupation, and that’s just about right as far as they’re concerned. These men and women have a long tradition of taking their anger out on their enemies.
