Once a fabled Knight of the Stars, the Voidknight knows secrets which have been hidden for generations. Some secret which he learned condemned him eternally, and now he rules over a silent court of all-seeing monsters as one of the Ten Thousand Kings of Hell. His voice is a sepulchral whisper that runs chills down the back of every mortal creature who beholds it. He wears gleaming plate armour and bears a quicksilver-fast sword, but under his cloak lurks nothing, just a starry emptiness. It is said that those who have tried to gaze beneath his cowl have lost their minds in trying to understand the hidden things of the universe.
As a patron, the Voidknight favours Hexblade warlocks, but occasionally selects others to serve his dark wishes. His orders are often confusing, and sometimes even conflicting, but those who serve him maintain that there must be some secret agenda in serving his purposes. Those who serve him lose colour in one eye, the pupil expanding to fill one whole socket. Occasionally, scintillating starlike sparkles can be spied within the darkness. Statistics: The Voidknight's ability scores are approximate to a Planetar angel, but Neutral Evil. He has the ability to use Foresight once per day. How you can use The Voidknight in your game: - The Knights of the Stars are an order that still serves some mysterious purpose. They might serve Player Characters as allies or sometimes foils, acting according to secretive needs. This might bring them into conflict with the Voidknight, or perhaps even bring them into his eerie confidences, for some reason. - Servants of the Voidknight might discover that the PCs have learned one of their deep secrets, prompting them to bring them further into their inner circle- or to attempt to slay them, to preserve their secrets. - The court of the Voidknight is a dark and oppressingly silent place in the Hells, looking out into the deepest void of the Ethereal plane. His court is attended by fiendish Bodaks and a throng of raving Nothics, their eyes sparkling with utter madness. Also posted on Game Masters Stash on 1 July 2020. Comments are closed.
