one day you will lay down your sword for last time and run you hands through the soft grass and bask in the sun above. you will leave the blade where it may lie and you will go out and live

Ser Killian of Applebrook

Some very open ended question here haha! What their deals are what they're like are v dependent on which knight we're talking about so heeere's some characters (not all o these guys are named yet!)

The main guys I tend to draw are The Blue Knight, The Red Knight and Ser Killian.

Killian can seem a little severe at first but he's just dedicated to whatever job he's on and making sure he makes the right impression. In reality he's calm and personable, gentle and patient with kids, especially. He was The Blue Knight's mentor and one of the only knights sensible enough to know his limits and retire while he still has some life left to live.

The Blue Knight is a quiet and serious sort. While they care deeply about the people of the kingdom and doing right by them, they are uncomfortable, cautious and seemingly haunted by an unseen force. Blue was set up for a comfortable life, their father being brother of the King, but they fled home unannounced to fight in the King's army when they were young, seeing plenty of horrors and being badly injured before they met Killian and insisited he take them on as a Squire. Their achievements were admired and respected, and eventually they were assigned a squire...

The Red Knight started life an orphan on the streets of the capital, unnamed and unwanted, this did not deter them from lofty ambitions. They scrapped and stole for whatever they could find until a fateful day they returned a trinket pilfered from the King who saw fit to let them join the ranks of his knights (so Red would say). Their life has deeply shaped their philosophy and they will do whatever it takes to get what they want, no matter how cruel or dirty the task may be. They have a way of minceing words to turn an enemy around to their point of view, and those who stand in their way but can't be persuaded have a way of... disappearing. I'm sure it's just coincidence.
