Dorian Knox

Sir Dorian Knox, heir to the Three Towers, two-time champion of the Everglow Tourney, High Inquisitor of Holy Aradia's Sixty-Eighth Great Crusade, and Lance of the East is rightly considered one of the most feared warriors in Aradia. It is a tradition within the Knox household that the firstborn son and heir be given to the Temple to serve as a Crusader, an armed warrior of the faith. The period of required service usually extends to only about 7 years, but Dorian took it further by continuing to serve into his 30s. A large, powerful man, he is a master at mounted combat, having won a series of illustrious tourneys throughout his life. His experience in battle has made him a skilled tactician, and he is known for his heavy involvement within the Knox military--though he prefers to leave matters of governance to his younger brother Nestor. Dorian suffered an injury at the Everglow Festival of 1014AE after taking a wound from Jaster Blackthorne, the aftereffects of which caused the Knox-Blackthorne War. With a severely damaged leg, Dorian is no longer able to take part in combat, but continues to command his father's armies nevertheless.
