|summary=A Knight of Darkness is a less martial focused antipaladin, instead possessing greater magical abilities. They often find comfort and supports from dark patrons, who has them fight for various dark goals. Some knight of darkness pursue their own personal goals, such as vendettas, rampant nihilism, madness and desire for utter destruction or even more sympathetic goals such as fear and despair over their coming death.
The Knight of Darkness is inspired by villains from the ''Final Fantasy series '' and other RPGs. Despite this, it flavor should be flexible and suited for most games.
