List of Second Citadel Knights

This list compiles the known **knights of the Second Citadel.**

## Knights of the Crown

**Knights currently sworn to Queen Mira in canon**

### Sir Absolon

**Sir Absolon the Swift** is the leader of the journeyman knights of the Second Citadel, and presumably in charge of admission into their ranks. He warned Sir Damien that Sir Marc is not to be trusted. He is condescending to Queen Mira and Sir Caroline, and romanticizes the adventures and skills of many former knights. His priority is to teach knights to be "killing machines."

### Sir Frederick

**Sir Frederick** is a knight who works under Absolon. He does not play along when Absolon misrepresents past events.

### Sir Marc

**Sir Marc of the Craftsman's Quarter** is a knight of the Queen who took the exams to become knighted 291 times after repeated attempts to stop him from succeeding. However, he was barred from being officially knighted because the Queen's throne room was not accessible to his disability. He traveled the countryside to prove himself worthy of knighthood, along with his younger brother Talfryn. After aiding Sir Caroline, Sir Angelo, and Sir Damien (amongst other civilian combatants) in defeating the Fear monster and the Maneater Damselfly, he was finally granted admission to the Knights of the Crown.

### Sir Richard

**Sir Richard the Thorough** is a knight dispatched to Ballast to search for witches. Absolon claims he works slowly, and slays too few monsters.

### Sir Talfryn

**Sir Talfryn,** also known as **Tal,**  was an aspiring knight of the Second Citadel who traveled the countryside with his brother Sir Marc in pursuit of monsters to impress the Queen. He is a masterful tracker, but has a waning interest in knighthood as the series progresses. At the end of season two, he considered giving up his pursuit of knighthood, but later serves as "Sir Talfryn" with Caroline as his commanding officer. His interests still differ from "knightly" pursuits, and he spends much of his time distracted by animals and avoiding killing monsters.

## Former Knights

**Knights who have resigned from their position**

### Sir Angelo

**Sir Angelo** **the Strong** was known as a knight for his incredible strength. Sir Damien's best rival, and friend to all. Throughout season 3, the undisputed greatest knight in the Second Citadel. He resigns having had his faith in knighthood irrevocably shaken by the Kite, and resolves to go out and see the world from the perspective of the people he swore to protect.

### Sir Caroline

**Sir Caroline** was a knight of the Second Citadel. She was, notably, the only female knight. She was heavily discouraged from pursuing the career, but was forced to be admitted when she successfully passed the tests. She was promoted by Queen Mira to Investigator General, but resigned from that position, thinking herself unfit for a leadership position based on her actions towards Amaryllis of Exile. The Queen then immediately re-promoted her to a leadership position, this time Captain of the Guard. She leaves this position after losing her belief in the necessity of her job, partially due to meeting Ale and battling the Kite, and finally leaves The Second Citadel entirely after losing her respect for Queen Mira as a commander.

### Sir Damien

**Sir Damien the Pious** was a knight of The Second Citadel named after Saint Damien, the Saint of tranquility and the sea. He often calls upon the saint as a way of trying to calm his many anxieties. Engaged to Rilla, and romantically involved with Lord Arum. He was formerly tied for the status of greatest knight in the Second Citadel with Sir Angelo, but has resigned from knighthood due to a moral disagreement with Sir Absolon and Sir Caroline, likely related to the slaying of monsters. In season 3, he now lives near The Keep.
