(Quite a funny coincidence how I rolled a knowledge roll for all the characters prior to my last post and only Rigvar, Argaeus and Roxin knew what the Knights were.)

Rigvar wasn't sure what Argaeus was talking about, but he nodded after Roxin's comment. "Indeed, quite rare. I've only every encountered them one other time when I was adventuring in High Rock and fought against a powerful wizard in Stormhaven. His armored minions were quite similar to these. They are a pain to deal with since they feel nothing. Unlike the dwarves' creations, fire doesn't seem to be any more effective against them than regular attacks, as they armor aren't interconected like the gears on the animunculi."

Gwen searched through the pile of armor and found a common black soul gem inside. "This must be the gem used to create the animated knight." She felt no magic from it. "It's empty."

Rigvar explained. "From my experience fighting them, the gems are used up as soon as the armor is animated. There is no point trying to attack the gems to kill the armor, as they are empty. The only way to take down the construct is to deal enough damage to the armor so that it can't sustain the magic anymore and falls apart."
