The Knight’s True Identity: 5 Shocking Facts About The Guardian Tales Protagonist And Their Multiverse Forms
Contents
The Knight's Core Profile and Voice Actors
The protagonist of *Guardian Tales* is simply known as "The Knight," a newly-recruited, low-ranking member of the Kanterbury Royal Guard. Their journey begins when they are tasked with a simple training exercise, only to be thrust into an invasion by the mysterious Invaders. The game allows players to choose the Knight’s gender, a choice that impacts their appearance, voice, and minor interactions throughout the story, but not the core narrative. * Role: Protagonist, Warrior (Basic Hero) * Affiliation: Kanterbury Guardians * Primary Weapon: One-Handed Sword (Champion's Sword) * Key Story Item: Champion's Sword, which grants them the power to save the world. * English Voice Actors: * Female Knight: Jennifer Losi * Male Knight: Aleks Le * Japanese Voice Actors: * Female Knight: Natsumi Takamori * Male Knight: Yuuki Ono * In-Game Viability: The base Knight is a Basic-type hero, primarily used for the main story due to a unique 25% damage reduction buff they receive in story mode. While they are not a top-tier character for high-end competitive modes like Arena or Raid, their 6-star evolution and second Exclusive Weapon (EX) have made them a surprisingly viable option for those dedicated to the original hero.The Three Faces of the Knight: Base, Future, and Alter
The most significant aspect of the Knight's lore is their existence in multiple forms, each representing a different tragic outcome or timeline. These forms are not mere costumes; they are distinct characters that drive the core philosophical and emotional conflicts of the game.1. The Base Knight (The Player)
This is the version of the Knight the player controls. They are characterized by their simple, often naive, but ultimately pure-hearted nature. They are a silent protagonist, but their personality is heavily shaped by the player’s dialogue choices, which, especially in later worlds like World 20 (Motori Mountain), have given them a surprisingly "ruthless" or determined edge. Their main goal is to protect the Little Princess and restore the shattered world of Tetis.2. The Future Knight (The Dark Future)
The Future Knight is a separate, Unique Hero that players can acquire. This character represents the Knight's self from the "Unrecorded World" (World 10/11), a dark future where the Invaders succeeded. The Future Knight is a veteran, hardened by years of war and loss, and is often depicted in a high-tech battle suit, wielding a rifle instead of a sword. The lore surrounding the Future Knight is intensely tragic, as they are a version of the hero who was unable to save their world and was forced to live with the consequences, sometimes even being seen as having "betrayed Heavenhold" in their desperation. Fan theories and comics often explore the alternate route where the Knight chooses to stay in the future, cementing this iteration as a major point of narrative speculation.3. The Alter Knight (The Multiverse Tragedy)
The Alter Knight is a character who embodies the deepest, darkest lore of *Guardian Tales*. This iteration is a Knight from a *previous* universe or "loop" in the cosmic cycle of destruction that plagues Tetis. This Knight is revealed to have suffered an unimaginable fate: they were trapped in a void for seven years, a consequence of their actions that ultimately led to the destruction of their own universe and the death of everyone they knew. The Alter Knight is a figure of immense power and profound despair, possessing knowledge of the 'Loop' and the true nature of the world's endless cycle. They are a terrifying glimpse into what the current Knight could become, highlighting the immense stakes of their current journey.The Knight’s Pivotal Role in Season 3 and Beyond
The conclusion of Season 2 brought the main conflict of the Unrecorded World to a close, and the game has now transitioned into Season 3, initiating a "new chapter in the story." This shift places the Knight in an even more critical position, moving them from a simple hero to a figure of multiversal importance. The introduction of the Alter Knight and the deep exploration of the 'Loop' theory have transformed the protagonist's journey. The Knight is no longer just fighting Invaders; they are fighting *destiny* itself. The recent story developments, including the events of World 20 (Motori Mountain), have focused heavily on the Knight’s evolving personality and their agency in a world determined by fate. The choices the player makes are becoming increasingly meaningful, adding layers of complexity to the previously silent hero. This new season is expected to delve further into the consequences of the Knight's past and future selves, especially how the knowledge of the Alter Knight—a previous universe’s failure—will affect the current timeline. The Knight’s continued growth, both in power and character, is the central pillar of the narrative, solidifying their status as the cornerstone of the *Guardian Tales* universe, a hero who must break the cycle of destruction to finally achieve a true, lasting peace. The subtle evolution from a 1-star beginner to a hero capable of standing against cosmic forces is the ultimate testament to the Knight's enduring legacy.
