hey guys! i wanted to talk about the different kinds of royals and knights in my story, since sun royals aren’t the only ones! this is gonna be a long post filled with mostly knight stuff and the different ways they each attack corruptions. sorry there’s no read more, i’m on mobile !!
so first we have our sun kingdoms, (where morilius and antavriel come from), smoke and lunar kingdoms, constellation kingdoms, and skies.
now, we’ve seen a little of what sun knights can do because of johnny. they use fire, which is gifted to them by the royals that create them, so they’re working with something very strong. when a corruption is attacked by a sun knight, there is no mercy with the flames. their fire is wrathful, burning, pure chaos in their hands. it latches onto the void and eats the darkness alive. a single sun knight’s fire could burn the entire earth into nothing. they are built to protect, they are built for wrathful battle and merciless death to those threatening their kingdom. sun knights are by far the most violent knights in battle and in their ways of practice. they’re chaotic, feral, they protect! it’s what they’re made for!
these knights come from two different royals, a smoke royal and a lunar royal. you will never find one of these royals alone, it is essential that they work together. these sister stars are truly a force to be reckoned with.
the knights born from these with either be smoke or lunar, and the army will be evenly split down the line. if a smoke and lunar knight come across a corruption, they will work together. first the smoke will take their power and surround the corruption, smothering it. it will choke and suffocate, but it won’t die. after the smoke takes hold, the lunar knight will take their light that they shine onto their moons, and direct it straight into the corruption. the smoke reacts with the moonlight, and it begins to burn the corruption into dust and stone, sometimes the pieces become what we know as comets. they are silent in battle, perfect and smooth. their methods are a dance, and they’ve practiced it since the day they were born. a smoke knight and a lunar knight will always be together, the same as their parent stars.
constellation knights were born of the stars that were within the constellation royal. these knights have lines and star dust tracing their skin, and it looks just like a constellation. anyway. when faced with a corruption these stars are skilled but also a little chaotic. they use the warmth of the constellations within them to heat the battle, while also using the pure light to kind of trick their opponent. constellation stars will also connect telepathically to the corruption and sing a battle cry, shaking the corrupted being’s brain until they are unable to move because it is so incredibly loud. at that point they’ll use the ties that bound their stars together to form the constellation, wrapping around the corruption and slowly boiling it to death and cutting it to pieces. their battles are also elegant and skilled much like the lunar and smoke, however they make their own steps and sing their own music, and become more chaotic and violent like their siblings of the sun kingdoms.
the skies don’t actually have knights! they’re viewed as more of the deities to the stars. a lot of times in my writing you’ll see marvin or anti say skies! or oh skies! and to us, it would be the same as gods! or oh gods! the sky deities rule over everything, but mostly are connected with a star’s afterlife or ghost. i’m still working on these guys so take this info with a grain of salt!
okay!! that’s all the lore i wanted to talk about, if you guys have any questions with the royals or knights or stars in general, please ask! also sorry this was so long haha
