He has cool armor and cool sword. And served directly under Queen Marika. That's enough for me.

@seahedge2002

A knight is either: a) a person who serves their sovereign (typically atop a mount) b) a person awarded a nonhereditary title (and entitled to use “Sir”) c) a chess piece that jumps over other pieces Maliketh devotedly serves his sovereign (Marika) and with honourable military rank (a Champion), though without a known signature mount or steed. However he also has a nonhereditary title, “The Black Blade”, though is also never referred to as “Sir”. … But also with his strategic placement (like a chess piece) as the guard of the rune of death, and the fact that… HE JUMPS ALL OVER THE DAMN PLACE— Yeah, I’d call him a knight…

I mean, technically you could say he's a knight, but that's like calling a Paladin a knight. Sure, both wear armour and have big swords, but to imply Maliketh is a simple foot soldier when he's the literal bodyguard of the lands Goddess and death itself is criminally underselling him

He is a Cleric, and a Beast. 😁

He can be anything, he’s still a peak boss fight.

I'd argue he's a cleric, maybe a paladin

@KnightlySymphony

A suit of armor, a skilled blade user, a name revered and feared by many, and someone serving a queen. Yeah he’s a knight!

He is literally the shadow and blade of Marika. He calls himself "Marika's Black Blade" that by definition makes him a knight as a noble trained warrior who serves a royal

I mean blaidd is to ranni what maliketh was to marika and I would see blaidd as ranni's knight so maliketh is too at least for me

He is Marika's shadow, so her bodyguard. Aren't knights the bodyguards of Royalty?

I would say yes. He is Marika's Personal Vassal and blade.

I find hes more of just a guardian rather than a knight he is Marikas shadow and he's pretty much the only reason Leyndell was still standing after the shattering until we defeated him.

I thought of sandor clegane when the comments said maliketh wouldn't be a knight despite acting like one and also just now I remembered that sandor was called "the hound" 😂
