>The BLUE KNIGHT;
Baldur’s Gate 3 verse (as mandated and contributed to by @estarion) Three generations of proud Knights have stood vigilant in Faerûn. The first of that held the title of Baldur’s Knight was a success story. Someone coming from nowhere and nothing to become a great adventurer. Dubbed the Prime Knight by the legacy the people attached to the stories, fell in battle saving many lives. The second inheritor of the legacy was dubbed the Astral Knight, a charming and charismatic man who joined with a group of adventurers and be one of the many individuals that would usher in a golden age of heroes and peace. Wielding an Astral Sword blessed by the Gods, the Astral Knight’s legacy was cemented in history when tragedy struck. A wizard within the Astral Knight’s own party betrayed him, murdering him in cold blood. Years would pass and a new adventurer took up the mantle of Baldur’s Knight. Dubbed the Blue Knight by the people, this armored individual took up the Astral Sword and once more the city breathed a sigh of relief. The Wizard, Shroud that had killed The Astral Knight however would escape from his imprisonment prompting Blue to leap into action and hunt down the traitor for his predecessor. The results of the quest would be failure. Outsmarted and outmatched, the Blue Knight was defeated, his enchanted sword destroyed, and he was barely able to escape with his life. Robert, no longer able to function as the Blue Knight is provided employment by a certain blonde paladin as a receptionist with a growing Adventurer’s Guild, in exchange they would assist him in hunting down the fragments of his blade and attempting to bring the Blue Knight back from the dead.
