Wielding both [[sword]]s and [[lance]]s, the class bears many similarities to the [[Paladin]] class.


In ''Genealogy of the Holy War'', the Knight Lord promotes from [[Junior Lord]] under the usual circumstances for the game; it is not a story-driven event and can be done at any time once Seliph reaches Level 20. In ''Fire Emblem'', it promotes from Eliwood's [[Lord]] variant, the circumstances of which depend on the story mode in question; in [[Gameplay modes#Eliwood, Hector and Lyn's stories|Eliwood's tale mode]], the promotion is an automatic event at the end of [[Cog of Destiny|Chapter 27]], while in [[Hector]]'s story mode, the [[Heaven Seal]] promotion item can be used at any time under the usual promotion circumstances.

Knight Lord

Battle Sprite of Eliwood, a Knight Lord, in The Blazing Blade.


Eliwood, a young noble of Pherae. A swordfighter with an important mission.

Unit type(s)

Mounted

Weapon(s)

Sword, Lance

Skill(s)

Canto

The Knight Lord (Japanese: ロードナイト Lordknight) is an advanced, mounted lord-type class. It is shared by three Fire Emblem series protagonists: it is the promoted class for Seliph of Genealogy of the Holy War and Eliwood of The Blazing Blade, and is the initial class of Sigurd, Seliph's father, in Genealogy of the Holy War. Wielding both swords and lances, the class bears many similarities to the Paladin class.

In Genealogy of the Holy War, the Knight Lord promotes from Junior Lord under the usual circumstances for the game; it is not a story-driven event and can be done at any time once Seliph reaches Level 20. In The Blazing Blade, it promotes from Eliwood's Lord variant, the circumstances of which depend on the story mode in question; in Eliwood's tale, the promotion is an automatic event at the end of Chapter 27, while in Hector's story mode, the Heaven Seal promotion item can be used at any time under the usual promotion circumstances.

Additionally, an unused unpromoted class that shares the same name in western versions (Japanese: リキア騎士 Lycia Knight) is also found in the data of The Blazing Blade.
