Black and Dread Knights are the level 6 creatures of Necropolis. They are recruited from the Hall of Darkness.

"Knights have a chance of cursing opponents they strike. Cursed creatures inflict only minimum damage in their own attacks. Dread knights' attacks also have a 20% chance of inflicting double damage death blows." RoE manual

Special Abilities[edit | hide]

Special Ability: Curse[edit | hide]

Black and Dread Knights have a 25% chance to curse their target stack for three rounds. This ability uses the Curse spell. However, Fiery Fields terrain does not affect creature spells. The ability is affected by the Magic Plains.

Special Ability: Death Blow[edit | hide]

Dread Knights' special ability death blow gives them 20% chance of dealing double base damage when attacking a creature stack. The game information states that Dread Knights would deal double damage when the death blow occurs, but that is not technically correct as it only doubles the base damage. In other words, bonuses from Offense, Luck or attack-defense difference are not doubled. See damage calculation for more specific information about the matter.

Appearance[edit | hide]

A Dread Knight appears at the beginning of the Corporeal Punishment scenario from the Long Live the King campaign in Restoration of Erathia.
