The Red Knight is the Faerûnian deity of strategy and battle tactics in Ed Greenwood's Forgotten Realms fictional world of Abeir-Toril.
Description
The Red Knight is depicted as a dark haired woman in red plate armor who wields a longsword called "Checkmate". The Red Knight's symbol is a red knight chess piece with stars for eyes.
Relationships
The Red Knight is described as looking to Tempus, the god who elevated her into godhood, as a father figure. As such, he is the only being who knows the Red Knight's true name, which would give any other being who learned it power over her. The Red Knight is also described as being an ally of Torm and Valkur, and an enemy of Garagos and Cyric.[Boyd, Eric L, and Erik Mona. "Faiths and Pantheons" (Wizards of the Coast, 2002).] ][Rinschler, Thomas E. "Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting: Deities Supplement" (Wizards of the Coast, 2001).] ]Dogma
The Red Knight's dogma dictates the use of careful tactics in battle to achieve victory, under the belief that sound strategy is the best way to win a battle with the most favorable outcome.
Worshippers
The Red Knight is worshiped by generals, tacticians, lawful-minded warriors, and several more war-minded paladins.
Clergy
Clerics of the Red Knight must be of Lawful Good, Lawful Neutral, or Lawful Evil alignment.
A cleric of hers is encountered in the game Icewind Dale II, who states that he is a follower of the new goddess known as the Red Knight.
