The Fianna Knights (フィアナ騎士団) were a group of Pallum knights led by Fianna. Later, a second generation was formed and led by Dim.
Information[]
The first Fianna Knights were a group of formidable warriors, even by current standards. Each of them, except for Fianna, approximately had the combat ability of a Level 2, although their Dexterity alone was around Level 4. When riding a horse their Agility was approximately Level 3. Their outstanding abilities were the result of their harsh training imposed by Fianna, the intensity of which surpassed even that of Hedin's training.
The group was called "little fish clean up unit" as they could kill monsters whose bodies they could pierce with spears and arrows but were defenseless against monsters above a certain power level (those against whom weapons didn't work). Fianna supplemented the attack power of the group, who emphasized mobility; the others took care of the small enemies while Fianna killed all the superior enemies.
Their members used different drop items to create weapons, being the first ones known to do so. Only Pallums were allowed to become part of the order and candidates had to complete an entry trial to do so.
After the first generation was betrayed by king Cormac, Dim, the sole survivor, spent the next 10 years training a new generation. Unlike the first one, who where noble and loyal to the kingdom and it's people, this one was created for the express purpose to exact revenge against everyone involved in the murder of the first group. Unlike Fianna, Dim was more lenient with his knights as he allow Rowen to become a knight early.
After achieving their revenge against the conspirators, the Knights redeemed themselves to the people that they betrayed by leading humanity’s first attempt towards the Dungeon and sacrifice themselves to create a pathway for their allies.
While it’s believed that no member of the Order survived. In reality Rowen was discharged at the last moment. Ashamed of his cowardliness, he retired form being a knight and became a historian to atone and spread his fallen comrades legacy.
History[]
The Fianna Knights slew multitudes of monsters and saved countless people during the Ancient Times, showing bravery and being the Pallums' first and last symbol of glory. The group was deified in later times, with their leader, Fianna, being worshiped as a Goddess. The group existed even before Argonaut, who begun the Age of Heroes, with Fianna becoming well known three years before the young pseudo-hero performed his great feat.
